Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
I could use some clarifications about the distinction between res.partners and res.users
Where are they defined ?
Also: why are they distinct ?
In what are they different ?
What different use cases are they meant to cover ?
Am I overlooking any documentation about this ?
Thanks
you can view partners as any kind of business contact, I.e. a supplier or a customer.
User is someone that interacts directly with Odoo. A user can be assigned a partner record (I.e. your Customer can have a User to interact with your database and that user is linked to the partner).
Regarding internal/public/portal user:
An internal user will have full access to the backend system. When you have Odoo Enterprise this type of user will require a license.
A portal user can access the customer portal to see their Sales Orders etc
the public user is someone who visits your Odoo website without authenticating

1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
Also, what's the distinction between Interna User, Portal User and Public User ?
