Hi,

I'm using Odoo 11.

The groups account invoicing and account manager cannot see the column discount on invoice tree.

I found this code in the account module:

<field name="discount" groups="base.group_no_one"/>

So I tried chaging groups like this:

<xpath expr="/tree/field[@name='discount']" position="attributes">
<attribute name="groups">account.group_account_invoice</attribute>
   </xpath>

But it's not working. Any idea how to do this?

Update:

I found that this field is visible only in debug mode (for admin and all the other users).

This makes no sense, an invoice has to have a discount column for a normal user.

Change the xpath expression to the following.

<xpath expr="//field[@name='invoice_line_ids']/tree/field[@name='discount']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="groups">account.group_account_invoice</attribute>
</xpath>

I inherit the view "account.view_invoice_line_tree", and I'm accessing other fields in the tree without problem. So that's not the correct way to access to the field discount.

Try setting the priority of your customized view to a higher number like 100 so that the customization gets applied last.

Changed the priority, but that didn't work.

Check whether there is another "inherited" view that is overriding your customization.

Hi,

If only your accounts admin want to see discount on invoices,  Then try like below:

<field name="discount" groups="account.group_account_manager"/>

You can replace it field with your own field.


<xpath expr="/tree/field[@name='discount']" position="replace">
<field name="discount" groups="account.group_account_invoice"/>   
</xpath>
