Multi-company management

Odoo lets you manage multiple companies in one database with separated financial data. This is ideal for groups that own several independent entities or branches.

Path: Settings ← Users & Companies ← Companies

1. Open Settings, then from the Users & Companies menu choose Companies.
2. Click New to create a company, then enter its Company Name and core data (address, currency SAR, tax ID).
3. Set the Currency to SAR and select the country Saudi Arabia to auto-enable ZATCA localization.
4. Save the company via the save (☁) icon; it becomes available to switch into.
5. Grant the user access from Settings ← Users and add the permitted companies in the Allowed Companies field.
6. Switch companies from the company icon at the top-right; you can activate several at once by ticking ✓ next to each.
7. Make sure every record (invoice, product, customer) carries the correct Company field to ensure data isolation between entities.
8. For shared data (e.g. a unified product list) leave the Company field empty so the record is available to all companies.
