This module assigns default company to res.partner.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Automatically fills in the company on new contacts with the company you are currently working in, so you no longer have to pick it manually. When a company record itself is being created, the field stays empty to avoid conflicts.
This module changes how the Company field behaves when you create a new contact in Odoo.
- When you create a contact (a
res.partnerrecord) while working in a given company, the Company field is pre-filled with that company instead of being left blank. - The default is skipped when the contact is being created as part of creating a new company record, so the company is not linked to itself.
- The default is also skipped during module installation and during automated tests, so those processes are not affected.
It touches two existing Odoo models: res.partner (contacts) and res.company (companies). On res.company it only adds a marker when a company is created, which is what tells the contact logic to leave the Company field empty in that case. No new menus, screens, buttons, reports or scheduled actions are added.
The visible effect for users is simply less typing and fewer mistakes: new contacts normally belong to the company you are currently in, and the field is filled in for you. You can still change it manually afterwards.
