Hello

I am trying to customize the invoice layout in the accounting module in odoo 16 but I dont want to mess with the default views so I want to create another option under the print menu. 

I have inherited account.move​ model into my custom model ice.report​ as follows:

from odoo import fields, api, models

class CustomIceReport(models.Model):

_name = 'ice.report'
_inherits = {'account.move': 'transaction_ids'}
_description = 'Custom industrial control equipment'

transaction_ids = fields.Many2one('account.move', string='Transaction ID', required=True, ondelete="cascade")

I can confirm the fields in my custom model have been extended taking from account.move​.


I defined the report like so  




using the binding model I thought it would automatically include it under the print menu but I cannot see it. The template file ice_report.ice_report_template​ exists under the ice_report​ directory. 


record id="ice_report_action" model="ir.actions.report"
field name="name" Ice Invoice field
field name="model" ice.report /
field name="report_type" qweb-pdf /
field name="report_name" ice_report.ice_report_template /
field name="report_file" ice_report.ice_report_template /
field name="binding_model_id" ref="account.model_account_move" /
field name="binding_type" report field
record



I assume this is where I am missing something. I am new to the job and the system and still trying to wrap my head around it. I get that an action would be triggered if the custom button is clicked, the data defined in the model would be rendered through the template. Don't know which part I overlooked.

Thank you for the help

Thank you
I have read the blog three times and everytime i am able to create a custom app, create the report and print it however for my use case i am inheriting from account.move, a standard odoo model using the _inherits option
That worked well but then upon binding my action to the account.move model my custom option does not appear.
setting the binding id to model_account_move and model_ice_report(my custom model inheriting from account.move) still it does not appear
