Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
So i have Company A, Company B, Company C. Each is a contact in Odoo. They all three have the same CEO. What is the best way to link the CEO contact to each company? Because if i add a contact on each company seperately, he/she will be created each time I add him/her?
Is there a way to create once a contact and to add him/her to multiple other contacts?
There is no way.
Even if it is the same person, Odoo needs to separate them for the purposes of recording their liabilities separately.
If they purchased something, who would the Invoice be sent to?
If we have a many2many relation with the contact table, we could have the same person selected.
Would it really matter in the end if the same person would be reliable? Same e-mailadres or contact information non the less?
Otherwise you would have 3 almost identical contacts, with the same personal information anyway?
Yes, you would have 3 almost identical contacts. These are three different people legally, when it comes to liabilities, even if they are the same human being.
Ah interesting - thanks for sharing.

1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
If you add a contact in the "Contacts & Addresses", I don't think it would create an actual new contact?
If i add them as a contact under "Contact & Addresses" it gives me an extra contact in the list view:
so it seems there is a contact created by doing that no? 😊
Ah yes my bad - Well then I think you could either:
1. Change how the "Copntact & Adressen" work: change form widget to relational table many2many?
2. Use an existing many2one field: for example use the "Verkopen & inkopen" > Sales person?
3. Create a new many2one field: in the studio we can add a new field with this relation with a connection to our contact information. Then we can just select the same person with the same information?
I don't know if this would solve your problem / be a solution for you?
