Hello,

You can use Binary fields.

It stores all kinds of files like .doc, .excel, .xls, etc

Once you define the field, you will have a button near the field to Upload your file.


    field_name = fields.Binary(string=’Name of field’ )


    You can download it again by simply click on that field.

    Check the below links for getting more information about adding new fields.

    Check this Blog for adding fields by code: https://www.cybrosys.com/blog/adding-custom-fields-to-existing-views-in-odoo-v12

    Check this video for adding field without code: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSPS8l0kbDE

    Edit: 

    for V8, follow like this. 


    _columns = {

    'binary_field':fields.binary('File'),

    'file_name':fields.char('Filename'),

    }

    And in the form view in your xml:

    <field name="filename" invisible="1"/>

    <field name="binary_field" filename="file_name"/>



    Thanks & Regards
