It can be set to a reference fields value using : g_form.setValue('your_fields_name', 'the sys_id of the field'); 

So it wouldn't work if you try to set it to a field that isn't a Reference type field.

write a on load client script.

use script :

g_form.setValue('NameOfTheCompanyField','paste_sys_id_here'); // provide the field name and sys_id in place of bold test.

Thanks,
