I've added some custom fields to sale.order model. I also created a form view (which inherits from sale.view_order_form view) for creating a new sale order object. the problem is all created fields are as rows in the form view and I want some of them to go to another column. How can I change the form view to send some fields to another column instead of all being in a row?

Could you share the code of your form view? I believe you can use <xpath> to locate and modify the inherited view.

Hello ,
You can do this using group tag in form view in xml file.
With help of group tag you can separate the fields .
Please refer following example . you can get better idea....

<record id = "sale_order_view_form_inherit_form_1" model = "ir.ui.view" > 
<field name = "name" > sale.order.form.inherit </field>
<field name = "model" > sale.order </ field >
<field name = "inherit_id" ref = "sale.view_order_form" />
<field name = "arch" type = "xml" >
   <xpath expr = "//" position = "" >
<group>
<group>
<field name = "field1" />     
                    <field name = "field2" />
</group>
<group>
                    <field name = "field3" />
                    <field name = "field4" />
</group>
</group>
</xpath>
</field>
</record>

you can  use group tag : 


<group name="parent">

    <group name="child1">

            <field name="field_name"/>

    </group>

    <group name="child2">
    

        <field name="field_name"/>

    </group>

</group>


 can use colspan attribute for change columns of groups

Hi,

Please refer this,

<record id = "sale_order_view_form_inherit" model = "ir.ui.view" > 
<field name = "name" > sale.order.form.inherit </field>
<field name = "model" > sale.order </ field >
<field name = "inherit_id" ref = "sale.view_order_form" />
<field name = "arch" type = "xml" >
<xpath expr = "//" position = "" >
<group>
<group>
<field name = "field_name" />
</group>
<group>
<field name = "field_name" />
</group>
</group>
</xpath>
</field>
