I tried to change the display name of the "res. partner" model by:

  • Specifying the "_rec_name" in a class that I created which inherits "res. partner" of course.
  • Override the "name_get" method as the following:
def name_get(self):
    res = []
    for partner in self:
        name = partner.name
        if partner.is_building:
            name = partner.is_building
        res.append((partner.id, name))
    return res

It worked with the second solution but, when I click on the "save" button, the display name of the many2one field "partner_id" takes the value of the field "name" of "res. partner".

Hi,

You should override the name field in your custom class if you wish to modify the partner_id field's display name when it appears in a form view or other areas of the user interface. To accomplish this, create a new field in your class that inherits the res.partner model, then set the name field to the value you want.

from odoo import models, fields

class CustomResPartner(models.Model):
_name = 'custom.res.partner'
_inherit = 'res.partner'

name = fields.Char(
    string='Name',
    compute='_compute_custom_name',
    store=True
)

is_building = fields.Char(string='Building Name')

@api.depends('is_building', 'name')
def _compute_custom_name(self):
    for partner in self:
        if partner.is_building:
            partner.name = partner.is_building
        else:
            partner.name = partner._origin.name


We replace the old name field with a new calculated field called name, and we inherit the res.partner model. The value of this new field is determined by using the is_building field. It uses that value as the name if is_building is set; if not, it uses the value from the original name.


Hope it helps
