hello guys, i'm using odoo11 and have a problem to add my new groups to an existing field where it already has a group for it (defined in python).
for example
this is the original field from account invoice
outstanding_credits_debits_widget = fields.Text(compute='_get_outstanding_info_JSON', groups="account.group_account_invoice")
payments_widget = fields.Text(compute='_get_payment_info_JSON', groups="account.group_account_invoice")i have done like this (override the original python code) and it works:
outstanding_credits_debits_widget = fields.Text(compute='_get_outstanding_info_JSON', groups="account.group_account_invoice,wpd_invoice.group_finance_site_admin,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_admin,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_team,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_and_accounting_manager,wpd_invoice.group_finance_head_fat")
payments_widget = fields.Text(compute='_get_payment_info_JSON', groups="account.group_account_invoice,wpd_invoice.group_finance_site_admin,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_admin,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_team,wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_and_accounting_manager,wpd_invoice.group_finance_head_fat") but can i do it from XML instead of override the python code? i've tried 2 ways to do it but didn't works:
1. replace the xml like this but not works <xpath expr="//field[@name='payments_widget']" position="replace">
<field name="payments_widget" colspan="2" nolabel="1" widget="payment" groups="wpd_invoice.group_finance_finance_and_accounting_manager"/>
</xpath>
2. replace it, make it invisible and make it visible to the specific groups <xpath expr="//field[@name='payments_widget']" position="replace">
<field name="payments_widget" colspan="2" nolabel="1" widget="payment" invisible="1"/>
/>
</xpath>
<record id="group_wpd_finance_customer_invoice_form_view_inherit" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">group.wpd.finance.customer.invoice.form.view.inherit</field>
<field name="model">account.invoice</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="account.invoice_form"/>
<field name="groups_id" eval="[(6,0,[ref('group_finance_finance_and_accounting_manager')])]"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//field[@name='payments_widget']" position="attributes">
<attribute name="invisible">0</attribute>
</xpath>
</field>
</record>
can someone help me for this issue? thanks for further answer
