Hi,


How can I activate an additional company on the company switcher, but from python/the backend?

I can retrieve the currently selected companies from the context, using:

self._context.get('allowed_company_ids')

Is there a way to add to the 'allowed_company_ids' ?


Thanks,

Stijn

Yes. You could add the new company to the User - Allowed Companies

I'm probably missing something, but I don't see a "allowed_company_ids" property or method in the user model?

Company_ids is there though, but that is not what I need.

There's probably some confusing due to the naming.

Indeed, in the interface (Settings / Users / User detail), you have "Allowed Companies". This field refers to "user.company_ids" and I can and do already add companies there.

What I'm asking about is the selected companies in the company switcher button on the top right (right next to the profile) in multi company mode.

The selected companies are (at least) stored in the context, in "self._context.get('allowed_company_ids')"

So after I've added the company to the user, I also want to select it in the company switcher. That is where I'm stuck.
