Multiple user profiles in django 2.1

I'm currently designing a CRM-Software, which enables the user to save information about his jobs. The idea is that the user can have different Useraccounts for different Workfields he's working in. For example, if someone works as a freelance CS-engineer and as a Dj at the same time.



My problem is that i don't know how to model the Userprofile into my system. My first idea was to put an active_userprofile FK on my User model, which my User sets via the App. This attribute would be used to always fetch the related data for the needed user profile.
This sounded good at first, but the more i thought about it it felt like a hack.
Because what i think will happen, when i use the App simultaneously on PC & Mobile(Android/iOS) is, that the users won't be able to use seperate user profiles on both (or more) devices.



So my question is:



  • What is the best way to implement a System where the User can have multiple Userprofiles and user them on different devices simultaneously?

  • You should probably set Profile model, and let the user choose which profile to use after login. You will then have a unique user in all your platform, and N profiles for each user.
