Hello Everyone!

Go to Debug Mode
In Odoo, activate Developer (Debug) Mode.

Go to:
Settings → Technical → Views

Search:
In the search bar, type:

vat_label

Open each view found and remove this line if present:
<field name="vat_label"/>

Save the view. Repeat for all views that use vat_label.

A view is trying to show a field vat_label that no longer exists. Removing it from the view stops the error.

Hi,



The error comes because the field doesn't load into the model 'res.partner'

* Check whether the model is inherited correctly

* Check the init file.

* Check the view that is inherited.


You can try something like this.


Python 


from odoo import models, fields

class ResPartner(models.Model):

    _inherit = 'res.partner'


    vat_label = fields.Char(string="Vat Label")



Init 


from . import res_partner



XML



<record id="res_partner_view_form" model="ir.ui.view">

    <field name="name">res.partner.view.form.inherit</field>

    <field name="model">res.partner</field>

    <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>

    <field name="arch" type="xml">

         <xpath expr="//field[@name='vat']" position="after">

            <field name="vat_label"/>

        </xpath>

    </field>

</record



Manifest


'data': [

    'views/res_partner_views.xml',

],



Hope it helps

If you click to update the base module, it will still popup the same error message, therefore you cannot update
