[trunk/7.0/6.1/6.0] Incorrect multi-company rule for BOMs

[Pedro Manuel Baeza]

Products multi-company rule is:

['|','|',('company_id.child_ids','child_of',[user.company_id.id]),('company_id','child_of',[user.company_id.id]),('company_id','=',False)]

that allows to assign a product to a parent company and let its children companies to see this product.

However, multi-company rule for BOMs is:

['|',('company_id','child_of',[user.company_id.id]),('company_id','=',False)]

that only allows down to top permissions, which is incoherent and doesn't meet real requirements for a lot of companies.

I propose then to change this rule to the same as the one for product.

Thank you.

Regards.

I have put it on the noupdate=0 section to allow existing users to get updated the rule definition.

Hello,

Thanks for the proposal but this more a feature request than a bug. How you share boms depends on the company and people can adapt the rules if they have different behaviour. We have no reason to change the current one as it may satisfy current users.

Also as discussed on the ocb merge proposal, we should keep rules in noupdate=1 parts.

Hi, Martin, I think you have to reconsider your opinion because:

- Current behaviour is not consistent: product multi-company rule allow this while BoM doesn't.
- This is not a feature request if you consider that this modification allow that consistency and the system must ensure correct defaults.

There's no problem to include the rule on noupdate section if this is a blocking point.

Regards.
