AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Improves the company switcher menu in the top bar so users with many companies can search, sort and switch between them more easily, including on small screens.

This module changes the company selector that appears in the top bar when a user belongs to several companies. Instead of a plain list, the menu now shows companies as cards with their logo and name, sorted alphabetically, and includes a search box so users can quickly find a company by typing part of its name.

  • A search field appears at the top of the company menu; typing filters the list of companies.
  • Companies are displayed as cards with logo, name and a selection indicator; the current company is highlighted.
  • Users can select or unselect companies to work in (multi-company context) and switch to a company by clicking its card.
  • Keyboard support: Tab or Arrow Down moves focus from the search box to the first company card; Enter switches to the focused company; Space toggles its selection.
  • The company menu is also reachable on small screens through a building icon with the access key "y".

The module extends the session information sent to the browser so the menu can show each company's code and full name, and it relies on the multi-company group. It only affects the web client interface; no business documents or accounting entries are changed.
