Hi,

This error occurs because the XPath expression you provided is trying to locate an element that does not exist in the parent view. When Odoo processes an inherited view, it must find the exact element specified in the XPath; if the structure has changed, the tag isn’t present, or the wrong parent template is being inherited, Odoo cannot match the XPath and raises this error. Updating your XPath to reference an actual element. Also ensure that your inherited template uses the correct parent view

Hope it helps

Hello Maaz Aslam,
I hope you are doing well,
*Change your inherit_id* to *account.report_invoice_document* instead of *account.report_invoice_document_preview*, or use XPath //p[@name='payment_communication'] without the nested //t[@t-if='o.partner_bank_id'] part.
I hope this information helps you
Thanks & Regards,
