In a multi company environment, I created the same department structure (HR configuration) for all the companies ... sales, accounting, finance, production, etc. When I want to assign a department to an employee, who belongs to a company (company_id), I see all the departments of all companies but the company name associated to the department is not listed. So I can see 5 times "sales", 5 times "accounting", etc. I think we should see only the departments of the company id of the employee! Is it a bug or am I missing something?
Thanks!
I understand I can allow access to one company at a time for my superuser but it's a little painfull.
Yes, this is an annoying problem. The workaround I have used is to create departments with the company initials like Sales (ABA) and Sales (DRD). When selecting, I know the employee's company (is listed) and select the right one. It's more work on our end, and seems like something the system should be wary of. However, I'm sure if it forced you to select only that employee's company, there would be another use-case where someone wanted to put them in another company department for some reason.
Good idea, I will put the company's initials.
