Hello,

I just added the domain attribute in the window action. When I tried to remove it of a ir.actions.act_window in its xml file and update the module, the domain is not removed actually. It works the other way round. How to remove it please ?

        <record id="expense_all" model="ir.actions.act_window">
            <field name="name">Expenses</field>
            <field name="res_model">hr.expense</field>
            <field name="view_type">form</field>
            <field name="search_view_id" ref="view_hr_expense_filter"/>
            <field name="view_id" ref="view_expenses_tree"/>
            <!--<field name="domain">[('user_id','=',uid)]</field>-->

</record>

Hi jean44

Better to have domain attribute as it is in xml and remove its value.

Ex:

<record id="expense_all" model="ir.actions.act_window">
    <field name="name">Expenses</field>
    <field name="res_model">hr.expense</field>
    <field name="view_type">form</field>
    <field name="search_view_id" ref="view_hr_expense_filter"/>
    <field name="view_id" ref="view_expenses_tree"/>
    <field name="domain">[]</field>
</record>

Now, when you will update the module, old value in domain field will be replaced with blank value.

Hope this will help you.

This isn't right. It's not a bug. In the XML's you are always "adding" info. See my answer below

What you're doing sounds correct. Double check that you are updating your module and restarting the openerp-server service. I notice you're trying to add uid in the domain (a very common request that still isn't supported, sadly). That will cause an error in your interface, so if you're trying to reload your module with the "upgrade" button in the interface, that may not work. A better way to reload a module is to do it when running the openerp-server command on the command line:

./openerp-server -c /some/path/openerp-server.conf -u my_custom_module

The paths will be different on your machine, but the "-u module_name" is the key. That will restart the service and cause the module to completely be reloaded.

Hi,

when doing changes in an XML, you cannot "remove" info this way. You are always adding or changing the information that is already there.

In  your case, you can just leave the domain tag, but changing the value to be empty or something that always evaluates to "True" (e.g. [('1','=','1')] )

<record id="expense_all" model="ir.actions.act_window">
    <field name="name">Expenses</field>
    <field name="res_model">hr.expense</field>
    <field name="view_type">form</field>
    <field name="search_view_id" ref="view_hr_expense_filter"/>
    <field name="view_id" ref="view_expenses_tree"/>
    <field name="domain">[('1','=','1')]</field>
</record>

Hope this helps someone.
