I am an admin for our odoo instance.  I am using a multi-company database.  There is no hierarchical relationship between the two companies in the database.  They are treated a separate companies.

When I try to add a company to a new product, Odoo complains with:

Access Error

Uh-oh! Looks like you have stumbled upon some top-secret records.

Sorry, <user> (id=2) doesn't have 'read' access to:
- Product Variant, Service on Timesheets (product.product: 2)

Blame the following rules:


If you really, really need access, perhaps you can win over your friendly administrator with a batch of freshly baked cookies.

A couple of things:

1.  The product id of the new product I added is 131, not 2.  I don't know what this has to do with "Service on Timesheets" service product.  So there appears to be some strange relationship with the new product I just added and "Service on Timesheets".

2.  I have read access to Service on Timesheets, I can open it and read and even change things and save it.

3.  The product I just added has no inventory and has not been involved with any stock moves.

4.  I've tried changing the Record Rules for Product ("Product multi-company") and changed:

['|', ('company_id', 'parent_of', company_ids), ('company_id', '=', False)]

to

['|', ('company_id', 'in', company_ids), ('company_id', '=', False)]

But that doesn't fix it and it mess up the product list in that you can no longer filter on Company.

Any help understanding why this error is being displayed would be appreciated.   I figure there is a rule somewhere that needs tweaking.... 

Thanks,
Kevin
