Hi all,
I just enable multi-company and create 3 child companies under the master company. I already install Indian chart of account (Indian - Accounting [l10n_in]) module.

When I check the chart of accounts all accounts belong to Master company.

I want the same accounts for My another child companies too (com1, com2, Com3).
I am not ready to create all accounts manually.
please suggest your ideas.

Is there any option like odoo8, to change the company and select the chart of account?

Thanks in advance.

First enable Multi-company: Settings > General Settings > Multi company.

Then create your companies: Settings >Company > Create

Allow your user for both/all companies: Users > edit > allowed companies

Export the chart of accounts from comp1.

Switch to company2. (Users or Preferences)

Import the exported chart of accounts.
