Hello.


I've never seen and tried your code before in terms of creating menus in Odoo.

I think you should try to remove the menu tag and don't forget to the end tag.


   

 



try this instead.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<odoo>

<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_root" name="Alpha Jobs" sequence="10"/>

/cp<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_tree" name="Alpha Jobs Tree" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_tree" sequence="10" />

<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_kanban" name="Alpha Jobs Kanban" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_kanban" sequence="20" />

</odoo>



menu_alpha_jobs_root is your main menu or root menu, the parent of your menu (Alpha Jobs Tree and Alpha Jobs Kanban)

instead of menu tag make it menuitem

like menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_root"

ParseError('while parsing %s:%s, somewhere inside\n%s' % (
views/alpha_jobs_menus.xml:5, somewhere inside
<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_tree" name="Alpha Jobs Tree" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_tree" sequence="10"/>

in reviewing my code it is all wrong...
going to have to rebuild my views I think.
Can anyone link me to a proper view example for tree form and kanban v17. thanks in advance

Lawrence

ParseError('while parsing %s:%s, somewhere inside\n%s' % (
views/alpha_jobs_menus.xml:5, somewhere inside
<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_tree" name="Alpha Jobs Tree" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_tree" sequence="10"/>

I think the error shows because in my given xml code it has extra letters "/cp" before the <menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_tree" ~ remove it, don't copy and paste all my code.

Lawrence

<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_kanban" name="Alpha Jobs Kanban" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_kanban" sequence="20" />

</odoo>

try this.

thank you for the reply.

The module installs - up to views and menus

Log error

views/alpha_jobs_menus.xml' does not fit the required schema!

AssertionError: Element odoo has extra content: menu, line 3 


Problem is no matter what I do to change this, removed

changed to , even changed the menu and view structure and load sequence in manifest. will not install the menus/views

alpha_jobs_menus.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<odoo>
<menu id="menu_alpha_jobs_root" name="Alpha Jobs" sequence="10">
<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_tree" name="Alpha Jobs Tree" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_tree" sequence="10" />
<menuitem id="menu_alpha_jobs_kanban" name="Alpha Jobs Kanban" parent="menu_alpha_jobs_root" action="action_alpha_jobs_kanban" sequence="20" />
</menu>
</odoo>

indentation is proper in the .xml. I have used this menu structure previous. never with v17
should it be different?

Niyas Raphy (Walnut Software Solutions)

<menu id= its wrong,

the Keyword is menuitem as mentioned by Lawrence

Hi,
Along with the post try adding the information regarding the issue ? Is it getting installed ? Any exceptions are raised ? such information is missing.

So answering generically, you can refer to this tutorial:  Odoo 17 Development Tutorials

Thanks
