Blockquote
I inherit the _inherit='purchase.order, and create new object with name _name='job.order' and use its view but when i am going to save it showing error (odoo warning) in pic.
use _inherits instead of _inherit this way you will create new object with with all field of 'purchase.order plus new field you declare in your model that won't affect original model.
for reference check res.user model in base module

What method is responsible for the creation of quotation? i looked in sale.py but i can't find it. Indeed i want to use that method in backorders process to create a quotation from the backorders.
A quotation is a sale.order in draft state. The method that creates records for the sale.order model is the create method. Indeed this applies to all the models of Odoo/openerp. You can find this method around line 362 in addons/sale/sale.py
To create a sale order in draft mode (which is a quotation). You simply need to call the create method for the 'sale.order' model. Something like the following:
self.env['sale.order'].create({
'state':'draft',
'partner_id':
....
})
Put all the other values inside the dictionary as per your needs.
I am trying to add new field to product.product model.
What I've done so far is:
Add new field on the following model (From Settings > Database Structure > Models):
product.product
with the following details:
Name: x_product_cost
Field Label: Product Cost
Field Type: Float
and leave the rest to default.
The problem is i am unable to show it on the form. This is the only code that is generated when I tried to edit Form:
View Name: product.product.form
Object: product.product
Inherited View: product.template.common.form
Product Variant
lst_price
I can't use product.template model, since that inherits to product.product
Am i missing something here?
PS: I am trying to temporarily fixed assign-different-cost-on-product-variant bug as specified here
https://github.com/odoo/odoo/issues/1198
Can anyone help me with this?
Actually instead of modifying the model from the Odoo configuration, you should create a custom module, in which you will add the new fields and the new behaviors that you need.
To do so you will have to inherit from the models in the python files to extend them, and you will surely have to modify the views as well, so that your custom fields get displayed.
For reference on how to extend models, create a custom module and create the views, you should refer to the Odoo documentation that you can find here.
As an additional note in case you didn't know, but their is a new API that appeared in the version 8 of Odoo, if you can use it, it is much easier and much nicer.
In my step-definition, I want to create a path to a named route for an arbitrary Model, like so:
Given(/^a new "(.*?)" form$/) do |model|
path = send("new_admin_#{model.downcase}_path".to_sym)
visit path
end
Used as
Given a new "Image" form
Given a new "User" form
I recall using a helper method in the past for this, one that allowed me to pass a modelname and some additional options, like the action and object or IDs. But I cannot find that anymore. This is for Rails 3.2.x.
Is there such a "magic" helper? If so, what is it? If not, are there common patterns to create paths to arbitrary Models?
Sometimes our OpenERP users want to make a small change to a field in a core OpenERP module. For example, they want the product screen's Rack, Row, and Case fields to be longer than 16 characters.
Can I change an existing field without making changes to the module that declared it? I'd rather make the changes using our own custom module, instead of editing the product module itself.
I've got this working, but I'm hoping that someone else knows a cleaner way.
You can inherit the core module's class in your custom module, and then just declare a new field with the same name as the one you want to change. Essentially, just copy the field declaration from the core module, paste it into your custom module, and then make the changes you want. For example, our product_notes module widened the Rack, Row, and Case fields to 255 from the product module's 16.
_columns = {'loc_rack': fields.char('Rack', size=255),
'loc_row': fields.char('Row', size=255),
'loc_case': fields.char('Case', size=255)}
The reason I don't like this is that you now have duplication for all the other attributes of the field. If you change the field length, and then the core module changes the help text, you will still have the old help text. I was hoping that there would be some way when the modules are loading to go in and adjust the field attributes of your parent, but I couldn't find any hooks at the right time.
One change that you can make more easily is the default value of a field. Just declare a default value for a core module's field in your custom module, and it will replace the original default. For example, we changed the defaults for sale_delay and produce_delay from those in the product module.
_defaults = {'sale_delay': lambda *a: 5,
'produce_delay': lambda *a: 0}
In ODOO we can change any attribute of a field using xml.
<field name="loc_rack" position="attributes">
<attribute name="string">Axis</attribute>
</field>
But some case like extending the size of a field its failed.
You need to inherit the product form.
Here you go.
from openerp.osv import fields, osv
class product_product(osv.Model) # <<<v7
_inherit = 'product.product'
_columns = {
'loc_rack': fields.char('Rack', size=<your size>),
'loc_row': fields.char('Row', size=<your size>),
'loc_case': fields.char('Case', size=<your size>)
}
In simple words you just need to override the field and apply your attribute changes it will reflect.
I am following an article that explains how to use the ICustomAttributeDataHandler class.
I am creating a custom column for the inbox screen, but the problem is that the value I set for my custom attribute is not being reflected on the screen.
As a test I am changing the task name to "whoKnows". But this code is not effecting what is output on the screen:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
(I am able to print debug lines from my custom class when the inbox is viewed, so I know my code is being run.)
Someone on the comments of that article wrote:
the user must call the
"setCustomAttributesInQuery() method
on the dataprovider passing in a
string array of the custom attributes
...what does that meen? Could this be my problem?
thanks.
To be honest, I have already used Webtop, but just as an user. I found a post in the dm developer discussion group that can be useful, though:
For creating a custom column in the
doclist you dont need to go through
this complex procedures. You can use
custom attribute datahandlers for
this.
First in your object list component xml file add your custom column
definition in the "columns" tag. You
can even add static columns instead of
the documentum attributes.
Now create a class which implements the ICustomAttributeDataHandler.
Implement the default the methods getRequiredAttributes and the getData
function.
In getRequiredAttributes add attributes of the object that you are
looking for.
In your getdata method retrieve each row and then based on the
attribute that you see, just set the
value that you want to. 6) Finally
define your class in the app.xml file
There is a section in WDK developement
guide regarding
ICustomAttribuetDataHandlers. Look for
the topic named "Adding custom
attributes to a datagrid".
I'm not sure if this is the final solution, but I hope it helps!
To answer you question about setCustomAttributesInQuery()
every datagrid in WDK is backed by an underlying data provider. You can get this proivder by using the following code.
Datagrid datagrid = (Datagrid)getControl("doclist_grid",com.documentum.web.form.control.databound.Datagrid.class);
DataProvider dp = datagrid.getDataProvider();
Once you've done that, you can call
dp.setCustomAttributesInQuery(myArr);
I'm not actually sure if this is part of the solution to your problem, but you could try this and see where it gets you.
You have to configure the inbox component.
if using classic view, go to inboxlist component and add your custom attribute.
<column>
<attribute>CustomAttributeName</attribute>
<label>Custom Attribute Label</label>
<visible>true</visible>
</column>
Your custom attribute has to be in a custom type that is a sub type of dmi_queue_item, because inboxlist shows only dmi_queue_item objects.
Hope this helps,

This may be a non-issue, but based on your code, I can't tell if you're doing this:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
or this:
ICustomAttributeRecordSet rs;
rs.setCustomAttributeValue(i, "taskName", "whoKnows");
You should be calling the setCustomAttributeValue method on the rs object instance, not on the interface.
