Odoo-16 Granting access to different users

Question

I have created multiple websites in odoo. I also created different users and now I want to give them access to different sites but only one website not the rest. for example: user1 can only edit website1 and when user1 goes to website2 he can only view not edit anything. how can I accomplish this? I use odoo-16 on linux manjaro

I tried finding a solution by checking access rights and record rules but I couldn't find anything and I became even more confused.

Answer 1

You can create gorup creatain number of users and restrict the view or menu for particular group

Answer 2

It's a little tricky to get it working and mostly need to be tied to the group Website / Editor and Designer

I have tested a working example that works modifying the Record Rule website_designer: Manage Website and qWeb view to be:

[('type', '=', 'qweb'), ('website_id', '=', user.website_id.id)]

So you can now associate Users with their Website in the partner form at the end of the Sales and Purchase Tab

Or you could manually add the field website_id (it's an stored related to partner_id.website_id field) to the User form like I did in order to visualize it

You will then receive a Security Error when the User2 tries to save any changes to the Website 1 like:

This is an starting point to prevent different users to be able to edit different websites. There could be more things to improve that but I will prefers to extend it by code in a module to bring a better functionality to Odoo limited capabilities around this
