Hello all,
In the res.partner model, I have found this boolean field :

employee = fields.Boolean(help="Check this box if this contact is an Employee.")


I don't find any place where this field is used programmatically. All my partner has this value at False in the database, even if they have a user or an employee associated with.

Is this field employee used somewhere in Python? What is his utility? When does his value change?

Thanks

Hi Pascal,

I guess there is no use of this field. It is just for information purpose.

If partner's user is related to any employee then having this field checked makes sense.

I agree with you. This field should be checked when the partner's user is related to any employee. But do you confirm that this it not the case actually? I think that I have to rewrite this field to achieve this. Do you agree?

The use of that field is just to filter Partners by that field in an action/menu just like there is filters for Customers and Suppliers, You could check their use in the addons/base/res/res_partner_view.xml

<record id="action_partner_employee_form" model="ir.actions.act_window">
    <field name="name">Employees</field>
    <field name="type">ir.actions.act_window</field>
    <field name="res_model">res.partner</field>
    <field name="view_type">form</field>
    <field name="domain">[('employee','=',1)]</field>
    <field name="context">{'default_customer':0, 'default_supplier':0 , 'default_employee':1}</field>
    <field name="filter" eval="True"/>
</record>

But I don't see that the action is used anywere
