Hello Gjanssens,

I have completely read your bug report this is not a bug but it's
behaviour, I think might have a misunderstood something.

Let me explain:

You are correct on point that Partner Category is a hierarchical list
but is displayed those partner whose are under this category not on the
child category. Because this will create a problem. Let's take one
example.

I have one partner category like,  Customer/Consumers/My Consumers each
category have 100 partners, then It will doesn't make sense that it will
displayed like that My Customer displayed 100 partners, Consumers
displayed 200 partners and  Customer displayed 300.... and it's become
confusing.

We have used any category menu for sorting/categorise record i.e Partner
Category, Product Category.Partner Category are used for categorise the
partner, If main record displayed all the record then hard to founf
those record which are user only main category.

This behaviour are same as on v5,v6 , v6.1 and trunk and we had not
changed it. Also I have checked the doc of OpenERP and I could not found
this thing which you are report on bug.

Would you please check
http://doc.openerp.com/v6.0/book/1/1_2_Guided_Tour/1_2_Guided_Tour_connect_openerp.html
's "Partner Categories" section. Which will clear you.

Hope this will help.

Thanks for the understanding!

Title:
  [6.1] Partner Categories doesn't show subcategory members

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm using OpenERP 6.1 release version. My setup uses a hierarchical
  list of partner categories (Purchase->Configuration->Address
  Book->Partner Categories).

  The OpenERP handbook explains that clicking on any category will list
  all partners belonging to that category and its sub categories. This
  doesn't seem to work like that in v6.1 (anymore?).

  I have created a test setup with two partner categories:
  Main
  Main/Sub

  And then I have added one partner to Main/Sub. When I now click on the
  Main category in the Partner Categories list, it shows no partners. If
  I click on the Main/Sub category, my partner appears in the list.

  I don't know if this is an intended change and the documentation is
  just lagging or whether this is a bug in the code. I'd rather consider
  it a bug in the code that should be fixed, because the behaviour as
  described in the documentation seems very useful to me.
