I have two models, Reports(belongs to client) and Clients(has many reports). A Client has an attribute or column called "specialty". What I'm trying to do is to be able to call and display the Client.specialty attribute for that particular #client when inside the show page of a #client's Report. In my Report model I do have a "client_id" foreign key. I have no idea how to do this, I've gone about this far:
#report.client_id
This obviously displays a number, but I don't know how to go any further, In my noob ways I want to do something like this:
#report.client_id.specialty
But that doesn't work obviously. How do I do this?
why not the following?
#report.client.specialty

Good day, hope everything's well.
I'm trying to find the value of tax_ids (Many2many field) inside the account.move.line model but i can't seems to find anything. I already access the psql of the database but i cant find tax_ids too.
I accessed that account.move.line model with ORM like this :
def _post(self, soft=True):
for move in self:
....
account_move_line = self.env['account.move.line'].search([('id', '=', int(move.id))])
print(account_move_line.tax_ids) #this find nothing
could someone please elaborate how is it possible to access id of the tax that applied to, in this case, an invoice line record?
Edit : Sometimes this ORM fetching the ID and sometimes it doesn't. But most likely it's not fetching.

tax_ids in account.move.line model is a Many2Many field, which is stored separately as another table in the database. This kind of relation field mostly be named something like this (main_table)_(related_table)_rel (ignore the parentheses). For example, this particular case's table is account_move_line_account_tax_rel since its main table is account_move_line and the related table for that specific field is account_tax. Inside the relation table, you will almost always find 2 fields mapping both ids together. For this case, it is going to be account_move_line_id and account_tax_id.

Accessing a field via ORM always works as you intended if it is implemented correctly. In your code, you are searching account_move_line by id but you are trying to search it with move.id, which I assume it is account_move since you got the data sometimes. If you can access the lines that you want correctly, you will see that account_move_line.tax_ids will always give you the correct tax_ids. From what your code looks, I think you are trying to search the lines by its account_move. Therefore, your domain should be [('move_id', '=', int(move.id))] instead.
_name = "my.table"
building_id = fields.Many2one('building', related='floor_id.building_id', readonly=False)
floor_id = fields.Many2one('building.floor')
A user with the read access to 'building' and 'building.floor' tables, tries to create a record in "my.table" If the user chooses building_id and floor_id together an error occurs. The error says that my user has no access to write 'building.floor' table. My question is: why a related field use the write function, what is the difference between the compute and related in this scenario?
Related fields are very simple computed fields. So simple they can be "implemented" with one parameter on field definition. Odoo has generic methods for those fields. For example a lot of developers don't write inverse methods for computed fields, which inverse the compute method, because the simply don't need it. But without it and without storing the computed field, Odoo sets the field readonly.
Related fields have a generic inverse method. In your case changing building_id when there was already a floor_id chosen, Odoo will write the building_id on that floor_id.building_id, because that's how related fields work (i know that's not the best explanation).
The user obviously has no write/update rights on builiding.floor model and that's why there will be the access error message in the end, because Odoo wants to write the new building on the floor.
Seems to me you want to filter the floors by buildings, but you shouldn't use a related field for that. Just put a domain on floor_id which filters by the chosen building_id:
floor_id = fields.Many2one('building.floor', domain="[('building_id', '=?', building_id)]")
You could also use domain operator =, but =? will show all floors when no building was set yet.
I need a new field inside Contact model that would hold information about Allowed companies of the related user.
Now there is only field about Currently picked company by that user (and it is not enough for me to make a record rule).
The field I want to copy values from is inside model Users and it is called company_ids.
I’m trying to add this field in the developer mode (Settings > Technical > Fields) like this:
But I’m having trouble with code that would fill my field with values from the another model.
for record in self:
record[("x_company_ids")] = env['res.users'].company_ids
I’m guessing that the record is referring to a record inside Contact model and it does not contain fields from another models like Users. So I can’t figure it out how to reference a field from another model.
Something similar to this: env['res.users'].company_ids?
It is even harder for me because it is many2many field and should always update when the source changes.
Maybe better solution would be to use Automatic action to write values to this field?
I saw some threads like this: Computed many2many field dependencies in Odoo 10.
But it seems like in those cases they had clear connection between the fields and I don't have it. I don't know how to get related user while I'm inside Contact model. I know only how to this oposite way (from user to contact): user.partner_id.id
Here in below given code you haven't specified related user from which you will get company_ids, you have directly accessing company_ids
for record in self:
record[("x_company_ids")] = env['res.users'].company_ids
You can write as following :
for record in self:
record["x_company_ids"] = self.env['res.users'].search([('partner_id','=',record.id)]).company_ids
I'm just getting into Yii. I have a simple relational db. I have a "client" table related to "orders" table (client:id to orders:client_id). If I build my CRUD for orders i naturally see client_id, however I'd rather add a lookup for client name somehow
I have found how to do this on new and update _forms by adding a dropDownList. The list based views seem a little more complex. I can see that actionIndex() in the controller is gathering data and passing it to index.php, finally through to _view, but I can't find any help on where and how I should break into this with my lookup returning the client name
I'd appreciate any help
thanks
Check the Yii documentation about relations. You will need to create a relation in your orders table, lets call it client, Then in your list view where it generates client_id you can put client.name instead. Now you will need to make sure that you have the appropriate label because in the generated model it will only have a label for client_id, and you need a label for client.name. Yii will guess, or you can add it, or you can modify the label for client_id, and instead of using client.name in the view you can use
array(
'name'=>'client_id',
'value'=>$model->client->name,
)
I tend to gravitate towards more explicit definitions rather than shortcuts, but to each his own.
In my Yii application I have a pretty simple model setup. I've used the gii autogenerated code to create the basic CRUD, while I get the data for my app in place.
So, I have Authors, and Books. A Book belongs_to an Author.
I have a huge list of books already to enter - but as I haven't entered the Authors yet - none of my books will save, as I keep getting "Trying to get property of non-object" when I save without selecting an author- despite not making Author "required".
As I haven't got my list of books organised by author (it's a straight list of titles in a CSV list) this is preventing me saving any Books.
How can I make the Author optional?
Within the 'rules' function of the Book model you should see something like this:
array('...','...','author', 'required'),
All you have to do is delete the 'author' property from the array, so it will no longer be required. Of course this will only work if the 'author' column in the Book table of the DB is marked as not-required.
I hope it helps you, but I'm afraid it won't solve your problem. The error message you're getting, "Trying to get property of non-object", suggests that you have another problem rather than a not-set required property in a submitted form. If it is the case, you may post the BooksController's "create" function and the associated "_form" view in order to determine what's going wrong.
you could import your authors first, but this would probably wouldn't work either since your csv won't have the author_id in it
if i were you i would delete the foreign key (not the author_id field, just the fk) and import my books, then add authors and when done add the foreign key again to ensure data integrity and use it in the future
Yii won't complain if you do that
So the answer was more simple than I realised - I had the wrong relationship. Instead of a "belongs to" I needed a "has one". The has one relationship allows for nulls.
