i want to change some options of the field user_id in a purchase order but the following xml/xpath does not seem to work:

        <record model="ir.ui.view" id="purchase_order_extended_form">
            <field name="name">purchase.purchase_order_extended_form</field>
            <field name="model">purchase.order</field>
            <field name="inherit_id" ref="purchase.purchase_order_form" />
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
           
                <xpath expr="//field[@name='user_id']" position="attributes">
                        <attribute name="options">{'no_open': True,'no_create': True,'no_quick_create':True,'no_create_edit':True}</attribute>
                </xpath>
            </field>

it still shows the icon next to the field. it seems to ignore this options for the user_id field. for other fields it with the options attribute but not for user_id

@Mitul Shingala: the xml is in the manifest. there are many other definitions within same file that work. only the user_id does not work
