<p class="MsoNormal">This is most likely a bug in 4.2 as I can see the prospect name on quotations when I create them on my box running the testing branch of Freeside. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">If you want a true representation of where Freeside is today you may want to install it on a virtual machine instead of using the appliance which was created in 2016. You can install the testing branch by replacing the word stable with
testing when you add the apt repository.<o:p></o:p></p>
