Partner Account Multi-Company Default

When you work with several companies in Odoo, the accounting settings of a contact (its payable account, receivable account, fiscal position and payment terms) are stored separately for each company. This module saves you from re-entering them one by one.

On the contact form, next to each of those fields, a small arrow button appears (only for contacts that are not restricted to a single company). Clicking it asks for confirmation and then copies that value to all the other companies you have access to. Accounts are matched by their code and fiscal positions and payment terms by their name, so the same value is only applied where an equivalent record exists in the other company; if it does not exist there, that company is simply skipped and a warning is logged.

• Buttons available: propagate payable account, receivable account, fiscal position, customer payment term and supplier payment term.
• The same propagation also happens automatically when a new multi-company contact is created with one of these values filled in.
• If you have no other company, or the contact is company-specific, Odoo shows an error or does nothing.

The module only touches the contact model res.partner and its form view; it does not change invoices, sales or purchases directly.
