Basics Document

Premise may sound like a duplicate of connection object, but there are some differences, because connection
object is all about location data where premise is additional information about the actual structure and space within.
For e.g., in case of apartment complexes, you can attach the owner of the complex to the premise and when the
premise is empty and if the services are still consumed, the apartment owner will be billed. The premise can also hold
additional information about the spatial unit like if it's rental property, how many occupants etc.

Multiple contracts can be grouped under a single contract account however, a contract can be
linked only to one contract account. Also, multiple contract accounts can be linked to a business
partner, however a contract account can only be linked to one business partner. In case of big
commercial establishments or utility paid apartment complexes, the contract accounts may be
used to group multiple suites or apartments under a single business partner, so that the
payment responsibility lies with the business partner.
The combination of Business partner, contract account and contract comprise the business
data. Now, let's look in to the technical data in the model.
