Hi community,

I am looking at ways to determine the current company for a user in order to show only records for the current company for multi-company environments. I am wondering what is the purpose of this method:

self.env['res.company']._company_default_get()

Why do we need to go trough a method in res.company which calls a method in res.user.

Can't we directly call the method in res.user 

self.env['res.users']._get_company()

Or even better can't we directly use:

self.env.user.company_id


What is the difference between the 3, which one is better to be used?

Hi, 

If you need to get the company of the currently logged in user - then the best way is to get directly self.env.user.company_id

Other two options will do the same, but via several static methods of corresponding classes.
