Hello,

I am trying to add related user to an already existing employee. Creating a new user automatically add employee record for the user and then I cannot add user to the existing employee as it causes error "A user cannot be linked to multiple employees in the same company.". To do so I have to delete employee record created automatically and then add the user to the existing employee record. 
Is there a way to not create a employee automatically from creating a user. Or when trying to add related user to employee and choosing "create and edit" option, it should create a user and link it to the employee instead of creating a new employee. 

I appreciate your help.

I am searching for a module with this behavior, please tell me the name of the custom module.

Odoo doesn't create an Employee (hr.employee) record when you create a User (res.users) record.

If this is happening, please check custom modules and/or automations as this is not what happens out of the box.

Hi Ray, Thanks for the answer. You are right. A custom module was causing the issue.
