The concept of Partner models a business entity (company) or a person and is one of the central concepts of the ERP (class res.partner). You can find Partner objects for example in the menus Sales-->Customers (or Suppliers). The ERP relates many models to the partner (e.g. Sales Orders, Invoices, Manufacturing Orders, Projects, Tasks, Analytic Accounting, Payments etc). The company (res.company) has an associated Partner, which stands for the company itself. You can use it in all places in Odoo that expect as data type the Partner object.

I hope this helps.
