Odoo 10: Add extra fields to the product form - odoo

I want to add a couple of extra fields to the product form, right after 'standard_price'.
I created a view that inherits from "product.product_template_form_view" and added my fields there:
<field name="standard_price" position="after">
<field name="my_field" />
</field>
I then restart odoo updating the module, but I don't see my new fields when I call the product form.
The fields appear on the database model (created inherited models also), but not on the user interface.
What I'm missing here?

Check these things:
Inherited from correct base form product.template.common.form
Make sure you are looking at correct form for product.template (Product), not product.product (Product Variant).
Do you see the input field without caption in edit mode? If this is the case, you can have broken structure in the html level. Next bullet will solve this.
Standard_price field has unique html structure because it can have unit of measure (uom) connected to it. Try connecting to simple field or use the container div standard_price_uom for connection, see template code below.
Template code for working view with a new field after standard_price_uom div:
<div name='standard_price_uom' position="after">
<field name="my_field" />
</div>
If these does not help, please provide whole view definition.

Make sure you use the correct model. Use product.template instead of product.product.
<record id="product_template_form" model ="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">product.template.form</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_template_form_view" />
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<field name="standard_price" position="after">
<field name="my_field"/>
</field>
</field>
</record>
...
class ProductTemplate(models.Model):
_inherit = "product.template"
my_field = fields.Char()

Make sure you have added your XML file into your module’s __manifest__.py file. Odoo only pulls in XML from files that you tell it to.
You can see examples of this on any core modules. See sale/__manifest__.py for an example.
On your module, it would be something like this:
{
...
‘data’: [
‘views/form/form_product.xml’,
]
...
}

I have tested it in Odoo 12.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<odoo>
<record id="view_product_template_common_form_inherit" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">product.template.common.form.inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_template_form_view"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//div[#name='standard_price_uom']" position="after">
<label for="my_field" string="My Field"/>
<div>
<field name="my_field"/>
</div>
</xpath>
</field>
</record>
</odoo>

Why does my simple odoo extension crash my server on upgrade?

I am currently in the process of learning odoo. For this, I attempted to create a small extension module that adds a few fields to the product module. From the material I have, this is what my respective model looks like:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from odoo import fields, models
class product(models.Model):
_inherit = 'product.product'
testBool = fields.Boolean('This is a test', default=False)
ean = fields.Char('EAN')
and this is the respective view:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<odoo>
<record id="product_testbool_form_view" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">product.template.common.form.testbool</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_template_form_view" />
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<form position="inside">
<sheet position="inside">
<div class="oe_title" position="inside">
<field name="purchase_ok" position="after">
<div>
<field name="testBool"/>
<label for="testBool"/>
</div>
</field>
</div>
</sheet>
</form>
</field>
</record>
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="product_ean_form_view">
<field name="name">product.ean</field>
<field name="model">product.product</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_normal_form_view" />
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<field name="barcode" position="after">
<field name="ean"/>
</field>
</field>
</record>
</odoo>
(Obviously the respective init.py and manifest.py files got the needed imports.)
Now, while this installs without errors, it also doesn't work (no additional fields are shown in the product view), so there's definitely something I'm doing wrong here (although I don't know what, because I'm following the tutorials, but oh well).
However, the real problem happens when I stop and then restart the odoo service to see if this changes anything: The server won't start back up and the log contains the following (pastebin for length):
Pastebin error log
Can anyone help me figure out what's going wrong here?
I'm fairly certain it's something trivial that I'm getting wrong that the tutorials and odoo development cookbooks don't mention (they seem to be rather spotty anyway). But I've been trying to solve this for days now and I'm at a loss.

Odoo 10 - QWeb hide a view element if a field is False

I have following QWeb element:
<record id="extended_res_partner" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">Extended View</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
<field name="model">res.partner</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<notebook position="inside">
<page string="Foo" name="foo" attrs="{'invisible': [('is_customer', '=', False),]}">
<field name="is_customer" invisible="1"/>
<span>Foo2</span>
</page>
</notebook>
</field>
</record>
But it does not work. I get:
Field `is_customer` does not exist
If I remove attrs=... it works fine.
Even that you didn't provide the error message but this will work only if the the form view if for res.partner but i'm assuming that the form is for another model that have a many2one relation with res.partner in this case you need to create a related field in the model.
partner_id = ......
is_customer = fields.Boolean(related='partner_id.is_customer', readonly=True)
Then you need to add this field to the form view because attrs is client side feature it need the value in form in order to work.
<page string="foo" name="foo" attrs="{'invisible': [('is_customer', '=', False),]}">
<field name="is_customer" invisible="1"/>
<span>Foo2</span>
</page>
Note: if the form view is for res.partner just add the field to the form view because as I said is a client side operation it will not call the server to know what is the value of that field you need to pass it.

How to hide fields based on condition in odoo?

I have created few custom fields for products.Products appear in sales,purchase,warehouse and manufacturing module.I want to make my custom fields appear only in manufacturing module and hide everywhere else.So how to put condition on invisible attribute.I tried like this and got error as Unknown field _name in domain
attrs="{'invisible': [('_name', '!=', 'mrp.bom')]}"
Python file,
from openerp import fields,models, api
class product_template(models.Model):
_inherit = "product.template"
rim_weight = fields.Float(string='Rim Weight(KG)', readonly=True, compute='_compute_one_rim_weight')
width = fields.Float(string='Width(cm)',default='50')
length = fields.Float(string='Length(cm)',default='63')
gsm = fields.Float(string='Gram per square meter(gsm)',default='230')
Xml file,
<record id="product_template_form_view_dis_inherit" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">product.template.common.form.dis.inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_template_form_view"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//page[#string='Accounting']" position='after'>
<page string='Cover Page Paper'>
<group>
<field name="width"/>
<field name="length"/>
<field name="gsm"/>
<field name="rim_weight"/>
</group>
</page>
</xpath>
</field>
</record>
There are many ways to do this, however I suggest following options to you.
Modify an existing action and set context inside that and based on that context just write condition in view. (Remember here you need to override an action, and if you want to create another then you need to redefine menu to assign new action to that menu).
Create new view and set this view reference in an action of that model in which you want to show these fields. In new view you need to visible those fields, no need to extend product template existing view.
However the 1st solution is easy to achieve and 2nd one is lengthy.
Example of 1st solution:
<record id="action_name" model="ir.actions.act_window">
<field name="name">Name</field>
<field name="res_model">product.template</field>
<field name="view_type">form</field>
<field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
<field name="context" eval="{'is_manufacturing_model':True}" />
</record>
And then in view just write like this
<page string='Cover Page Paper'>
<group invisible="context.get('is_manufacturing_model',False)">
<field name="width"/>
<field name="length"/>
<field name="gsm"/>
<field name="rim_weight"/>
<group>
</page>

how to make display like sales order lines in odoo

I am a newbie in odoo development, can someone tell me how to make display like in picture sales order line in odoo, Thank you before
This is One2many field in Odoo
to made one like this you have to add some things like this:
In python code
from openerp import fields,models
class sale_order(models.Model):
_inherit='sale.order'
field_One2many=field.One2many('sale.order.line','order_id','Order')
sale_order()
class sale_order_line(models.model):
_inherit='sale.order.line'
order_id=fields.Many2one('sale.order','Order')
sale_order_line()
and you have some code for the view in your Xml file like:
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_test">
<field name="name">sale.order.form</field>
<field name="model">sale.order</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="sale_order.form_view_id"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<data>
<xpath expr="pass of position" position="the postion">
<field name='field_One2many'>
<tree>
<!-- Your Fields in the view -->
</tree>
</field>
</xpath>
</data>
</field>
</record>
and done

How to use inheritance in odoo to enhance form view?

In the Account and Finance module i want to add a new field but do not want to change the current form view and also I don't want to override it. I know to create a new class and declare _inherit attribute, declare new fields there, but i think it will override the original form view.
I want both(original and inherited) form view to appear so that i can choose them based on my requirements. Is it possible?
(I desire to add discounts field in my inherited form view)
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<openerp>
<data>
<!-- 1st part of the sim_view start -->
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="account.partner_view_buttons">
<field name="name">partner.view.buttons</field>
<field name="model">res.partner</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form" />
<field name="type">form</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//div[#name='buttons']" position="inside">
<button type="action" class="oe_stat_button" id="invoice_button" icon="fa-pencil-square-o" name="464" attrs="{'invisible': [('customer', '=', False)]}" context="{'search_default_partner_id': active_id,'default_partner_id': active_id}">
