Field help (MACCUTBPC) 

This field is used to specify the identity of the business partner or the individual where the item with this serial number has been installed. Warning: This field must be qualified exclusively by using one of the two following contextual menus: Business partner search. Contact search. If a code is manually entered directly in this field, the contents are not saved and the following message is displayed: "You must use one of the two contextual menus to select a business partner or a contact". The Installed base object is one of the rare objects that make up the customer module that is used to work on the totality of the customer base. This possibility is offered in order to identify the equipment base on loan. In fact, it is possible to manage the loan of the equipment at any type of business partner population (notably the prospects) and also at private sales (before they have been the object of a transformation into customers). In addition, all modification of this field leads to the automatic loading of the successive installation history for a serial number in the "Installations" tab. (See the "Installations" tab).
