Hi,

I am looking for a working example of inheritance in res.partner.

I just want to add one field for example after the existing field phone.

I have errors like:

Error details:
Field `my_field` does not exist


Here after the code i have inside the .py and .xml

from openerp import models, fields

class pb_it(models.Model):

	_inherit = 'res.partner'

        my_field = fields.Char(string='My Field', size=64)


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<openerp>
    <data>
		<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_res_partner_inherited">
			<field name="name">view.res.partner.inherited</field>
			<field name="model">res.partner</field>
			<field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form" />
			<field name="arch" type="xml">
				<field name="phone" position="after">
					<field name="my_field" />
				</field>
			</field>
		</record>
    </data>
</openerp>

Thanks

This error normally happens if you changed the xml and the py file and didn't restart your server. Pls restart and try again

In New API, add Import api

from openerp import models, fields, api

class pb_it(models.Model):

	_inherit = 'res.partner'
        my_field = fields.Char(string='My Field', size=64)

Sebastian782 If u have added a new field or modified a function inside the py file. You must restart the Odoo server. And then only u need to upgrade the server Otherwise this type of error may occur.

I  had the same problem and i resolved it like this :

you have to add in your file.py :

from openerp import models,fields,api

and  precise in your init file this :

from . import file

The error appear when i am installing the module.

Import api did not changed anything.

Restarting the server does not change anything as i get an error 500 because the module installation failled.

Here below the full error:

 ParseError: "ValidateError

class inherit_respartner(models.Model):
    _inherit = 'res.partner'
    myfield = fields.Char()


		<record model="ir.ui.view" id="add_respartner">
			<field name="name">add_respartner</field>
			<field name="model">res.partner</field>
			<field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form" />
			<field name="arch" type="xml">
				<field name="email" position="after">
					<field name="myfield" />
				</field>
			</field>
		</record> 

I think it's the same, but it works in my module
