Multi-Company Access Rights

Odoo gives every user one set of access rights across all companies. This module gives each user a different set of rights per company - swapped automatically the moment they switch.
Settings / Users & Companies / Security

Real Per-Company Privacy

The same user can be Sales Administrator in one company and have zero Sales access in another - each company gets exactly the rights you assign it.

Fully Automatic

Rights follow the company switcher in the top bar. Switch company, the page reloads, access is already correct - no logout, no manual step.

Surgical, Never Destructive

Only groups you explicitly list in a per-company line are ever swapped. Anything the user already had outside those lines is left completely untouched.

One Screen to Audit

A dedicated "Multi-Company Access" menu lists every user, every company, and every group assigned - grouped by user for a fast security review.

Right on the User Form

Configure it where you already manage access: a new "Multi-Company Access" tab on the user form, one line per company.

Built for Real Multi-Company Setups

Reads the same company switcher state Odoo's own webclient uses, so it stays in sync with whichever company the user is actually working in - not just their stored default.

See It In Action

One user, two companies, two completely different access levels - proven by the actual Purchase and Sales menus, not just a settings screen.
Multi-Company Access tab on the user form, with both companies allowed

1. A new tab, right on the user form

User B is allowed in both "My Company (San Francisco)" and "My Company (Chicago)". The new "Multi-Company Access" tab is where per-company rights get defined - no separate app to learn.

Per-company access line: Chicago mapped to Purchase Administrator

2. One line per company

This line says it plainly: while working in Chicago, this user holds Purchase / Administrator. A separate line (not shown here) gives them Sales / Administrator in San Francisco instead.

3. Every assignment, one audit screen

The Multi-Company Access menu lists every user's per-company lines grouped together - here two different users, each with their San Francisco and Chicago rights side by side.

4. San Francisco: full Sales access

Working in San Francisco, the Sales app shows Reporting and Configuration - the Administrator-level menus the per-company line granted for this company.

Purchase app in San Francisco, no Configuration menu present

5. Same company, no Purchase admin rights

Still in San Francisco, the Purchase app shows only Orders and Products - no Configuration menu. This user's Purchase Administrator rights are reserved for Chicago, and San Francisco correctly doesn't have them.

Purchase app after switching to Chicago, Reporting and Configuration menus now present

6. Switch to Chicago - Purchase admin appears

One click on the company switcher and a page reload later: the same user, same login, now sees Reporting and Configuration in Purchase - exactly as configured for Chicago.

Sales app in Chicago, Reporting and Configuration menus no longer present

7. ...and Sales admin disappears

The flip side of the swap: in Chicago, the Sales app has lost Reporting and Configuration. The Sales Administrator rights stayed exactly where they belong - San Francisco.
