I don't think so.

Let's have a look at the most used accounting software in the world.
They all have only one contact/address for the invoicing. They do not
have two fields on each document!

Sometimes, optionally, they have another field for the delivery address.
(which is another purpose)

  - Quickbooks (94.2% of the market share in U.S. !):

  - Microsoft Dynamics:

If the most used accounting software in the world do that, they can not
all be wrong.
