 am creating a custom report in Inventory (stock) module for which I have created a pop up view (window) for selection then after clicking a submit button, a python function is called. The problem is I am getting an internal server error stating

Value Error: External ID not found in the system: stock.customer_detail_report

Here is stock_report_views.xml file:

<odoo>
<data>
<report
string="Customer Report"
id="action_customer_detail_report"
model="customer.detail"
name="stock.customer_detail_report"
file="stock.customer_detail_report"
report_type="qweb-pdf"
print_report_name="Customer_Detail"
/>
</data>
</odoo>

Here is the model customer_detail.py

class CustomerDetail(models.TransientModel):
    _name = 'customer.detail'
    _description = 'Customer Detail'    

    customer_vendor = fields.Many2one('res.partner', 
                        string="Customer/Vendor", help="List of Customer and Vendors")
    PO = fields.Integer('purchase.order', related="id")
    
    def open_table(self):
        self.ensure_one()
        return self.env.ref('action_customer_detail_report').report_action(self)

Here is the pop up view (window) customer_detail.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<odoo>
<record id="view_customer_detail" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">Customer Details</field>
<field name="model">customer.detail</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<form string="Choose your date">
<group>
<group>
<field name="customer_vendor" />
</group>
</group>
<footer>
<button name="open_table" string="Retrieve the Customer Details" type="object" class="btn-primary"/> <button string="Cancel" class="btn-secondary" special="cancel" /> </footer> </form> </field> </record> <record id="action_customer_detail" model="ir.actions.act_window"> <field name="name">Customer Detail</field> <field name="res_model">customer.detail</field> <field name="view_type">form</field> <field name="view_mode">form</field> <field name="view_id" ref="view_customer_detail"/> <field name="target">new</field> </record> <menuitem id="menu_customer_detail" name="Customer Detail" parent="stock.menu_warehouse_report" sequence="100" action="action_customer_detail_report"/> </odoo> <button string="Cancel" class="btn-secondary" special="cancel" />
</footer>
</form>
</field>
</record>
<record id="action_customer_detail" model="ir.actions.act_window">
<field name="name">Customer Detail</field>
<field name="res_model">customer.detail</field>
<field name="view_type">form</field>
<field name="view_mode">form</field>
<field name="view_id" ref="view_customer_detail"/>
<field name="target">new</field>
</record>
<menuitem id="menu_customer_detail" name="Customer Detail" parent="stock.menu_warehouse_report" sequence="100" action="action_customer_detail_report"/>
</odoo>

And here is the final view customer_detail_report.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<odoo>
<template id="action_customer_detail_report"> <t t-call="web.basic_layout">
<div class="page" style="padding-top:-10%;"> <div class="
<div class="col-xs-4" style="padding:1;"> <h1>This is a test</h1> </div> </div> </t> </template> </odoo>
<h1>This is a test</h1>
</div>
</div>
</t>
</template>
</odoo>

Any idea why am I not able to link the report and not getting the popup window and final report view?

Hello Muhammed

While creating report template you need to pass template id='customer_detail_report' so it will call template with your report action.
Edit customer_detail_report.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<odoo>
<template id="customer_detail_report"> <t t-call="web.basic_layout">
<div class="page" style="padding-top:-10%;"> <div class="
<div class="col-xs-4" style="padding:1;"> <h1>This is a test</h1> </div> </div> </t> </template> </odoo>

It's because 'customer_detail_report' doesn't exist. You named the template as action_customer_detail_report so either you change the template id to "customer_detail_report":

EDIT: I also can't see 'customer_detail_report.xml' in the manifest file.


or change the file and name in your report to "stock.action_customer_detail_report":

I also can't find "customer_detail_report.xml" declared in the manifest file.
