auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0Lets you tag each HR department with a company branch (a partner record), and filters the department choices on an employee form so only departments of the employee's own branch can be picked.
This module adds a branch concept to the Human Resources area. A branch is stored as a contact/partner record, and you can set it on each department.
Where it appears: - On the department form (Human Resources > Configuration/Departments), a new "Branch" field is added right after the parent department field. - On the employee form, the department field is now filtered: it only offers departments whose branch matches the employee's address/company contact.
Business behaviour: - The branch is defined at department level, not directly on the employee. The employee's branch is therefore inherited through the department they belong to. - When choosing a department for an employee, Odoo restricts the list to departments belonging to the same branch as the employee's address. This helps make sure employees are assigned to the correct branch. - No automatic computation, email, scheduled job or report is added; the module only adds the field and the selection filter.
Areas touched:
- hr.department gains the new branch_id field.
- hr.employee is not given a new field; only its department selection is constrained.
Note: the branch field is optional, so if a department has no branch set, it will not match the filter for employees that have an address.
