What?
I probably won't forget this but just in case I do, this is an article to explain how I got the shipping address from a sales order in Zoho Books into the template of the Package Slips.
Why?
It took me a while of playing about with the placeholder reference fields in the template before Zoho advised on a 'hidden' away setting which was key to changing what these display.
What I had:

${CONTACT.CONTACT_DISPLAYNAME}
${CONTACT.CONTACT_ADDRESS}
${CONTACT.CONTACT_CITY}
${CONTACT.CONTACT_CODE} ${CONTACT.CONTACT_STATE}
${CONTACT.CONTACT_COUNTRY}
- ${CONTACT.CONTACT_DISPLAYNAME}
- ${CONTACT.CONTACT_ADDRESS}
- ${CONTACT.CONTACT_CITY}
- ${CONTACT.CONTACT_CODE} ${CONTACT.CONTACT_STATE}
- ${CONTACT.CONTACT_COUNTRY}
and in my Sales Order:

BILLING ADDRESS SHIPPING ADDRESS
------------------- -------------------
Test Company Joels PO Box
1 Test Street 1 Different Street
Test City Another City
Test State Test Zip Another State Another PostCode
Test Country A different Country
- BILLING ADDRESS SHIPPING ADDRESS
- Test Company Joels PO Box
- 1 Test Street 1 Different Street
- Test City Another City
- Test State Test Zip Another State Another PostCode
- Test Country A different Country
But the packing slip would display the Ship to address as the same as the billing address... Or more specifically, the primary contact, company, address and phone from the customer record and not from the sales order change.
How?
The key is a setting you need to change by going to
Settings > Preferences > Packing Slip Settings > and Enable "Delivery To":
