Ir View Multi Company
This module allows companies operating in a multi-company environment to define custom views for specific companies. It extends the view model by introducing a company_ids field, allowing views to be dedicated to specific companies.

Use Cases / Context
In complex multi-company environments, it is common for different companies to require personalized views for the same model. Examples include:
- Different workflows or business processes.
- Variations in required fields or field ordering.
- Regulatory or organizational differences between subsidiaries.
Previously, these needs were often addressed by assigning views to security groups using the groups_id attribute. However, this is no longer supported.
The ir_ui_view_multi_company module resolves this limitation by introducing a dedicated company_ids field on views, ensuring that views are only applied when the user is operating under the matching company context.
Configuration
- Enable the multi-company feature in your Odoo instance.
- To dedicate a view to a specific company:
- Go to the technical menu: Settings > Technical > User Interface > Views.
- Edit or create a view.
- Set the Company field to the desired company.
The domain operator used to filter inheriting views by company (=, parent_of, child_of, etc.) can be easily customized by overriding the _inheriting_views_domain_company_operator class attribute.
