This module extends the functionality of company management. It allows
you to bind a technical user on the company in order to use it in batch
processes.

The technical user must - be inactive to avoid login - be in the
required groups depending of what you need to do

allowing to define the technical user.

In your code you can use the following helper that will return you

- or a self with sudo user

.. code:: python

   self_tech = self.sudo_tech()

call it with
