Easy Switch Login
Let administrators switch into any internal user account from the Odoo systray, validate permissions, troubleshoot user issues, and safely switch back to the original admin session.
Why Use Easy Switch Login?
A focused admin utility for teams that need to review access rights, reproduce user issues, and move between admin and user sessions without handling passwords.
Admin-only access check
The systray switch option is shown only for administrators, keeping the login handoff limited to trusted users.
Direct user switching
Open the dropdown, pick an internal user, and move into that session immediately from the top bar.
Troubleshoot real user issues
Validate menus, permissions, and flows exactly as the selected user sees them in the current database.
Fast return to admin
After switching into another account, the interface presents a clear switch-back action for returning to the original administrator.
Core Workflow
The module adds a systray button for administrators, loads internal users in a compact dropdown, switches to the selected account without a password, and exposes a switch-back action in the impersonated session.
Screenshots
Review the main screens for user listing, systray access, user selection, and returning to the original admin account.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about permissions, supported users, and switch-back behavior.
Who can use the switch user option?
The module checks whether the current user is an administrator and only shows the switch dropdown for admin sessions.
Which users appear in the dropdown list?
The list includes active internal users and excludes the current logged-in user so administrators can jump directly into another account.
Do I need the user password to switch?
No. The module performs the switch from the active admin session, which is useful for support, testing, and access verification.
How do I return to the original administrator?
After the session switch, a Switch Back button is displayed so the previous administrator can be restored in one click.
