AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Adds a Company field to Contact Tags so each tag can belong to a specific company, and hides tags from other companies. Useful when several companies share one Odoo database.

This module extends Contact Tags (the labels you attach to contacts, stored in res.partner.category) with a Company field. When you create a new tag, the Company is automatically filled with the company of the user creating it, but you can change it.

The Company field is shown on the Contact Tags form, right after the Parent Tag field, and in the Contact Tags list, right after the Color column. Both are only visible to users who have the multi-company group enabled, and the column can be shown or hidden from the list.

A record rule named "Res Partner Category - Multi Company" is added: users only see tags whose Company is one of the companies they are allowed to work in, plus tags with no company at all (shared tags). Tags belonging to other companies are hidden from them.

This affects the Contact Tags area and the res.partner.category model. No new menus, buttons, reports or scheduled actions are added; the change is limited to the extra field, its display in the existing form and list views, and the visibility rule.
