Single pilot helicopter with 2 pilots flying

Hello to all

I would like to ask you all a question:

When i was flying external loads in EU we use the AS350, a single pilot helicopter in single pilot mission. Sometimes we were using 2 pilots to do the job, either for training purposes or just because the boss said so.

Was this legal? I mean in a single pilot operation having dual controls? And being both pilots rated on the 350.

And about logging time in the logbook? my understand is that you can only log dual time in a multi-crew environment. One as PIC the other as SIC.

Could you aid answering this questions with legal quotes from EASA legislation.

Thanks a lot
