Hi,
I'm trying to create a brewery customization. In order to do this, I would like to create different types of products. For example Yeast, Malt and Hops. Each Product has it own group of specific properties. So I reasoned: Lets inherit a new product from the standard product like this:import timenext I was trying to make a customized view for this:
from openerp.osv import fields, osv
class product_yeast(osv.osv): _inherit = 'product.product' _name = 'product.yeast' _columns = { 'yeast_form': fields.selection([('Vloeibare gist', 'Vloeibare gist'), ('Korrelgist', 'Korrelgist')], 'yeast_Form'), 'yeast_type': fields.selection([('Bovengist', 'Bovengist'), ('Bovengist', 'Bovengist'), ('Ondergist', 'Ondergist'), ('Wilde gist', 'Wilde gist'), ('Menggist', 'Menggist')], 'yeast_Form'), 'yeast_Flocculation': fields.selection( [('Laag', 'Laag'), ('Laag-medium', 'Laag-medium'), ('Medium', 'Medium'), ('Medium-hoog', 'Medium-hoog'), ('Hoog', 'Hoog'), ('Niet', 'Niet')], 'yeast_Flocculation'), } product_yeast()
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<openerp>
<data>
<data>
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_product_form_yeast">
<field name="name">product.product.tree.inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.yeast</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_product_tree_view"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<field name="ean13" position="after">
<group string="Yeast">
<field name="yeast_form"/>
<field name="yeast_type"/>
<field name="yeast_Flocculation"/>
</group>
</field>
</field>
</record>
<record id="product_normal_form_view" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">product.normal.form.inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.yeast</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="product.product_normal_form_view"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<field name="ean13" position="after">
<group string="Yeast">
<field name="yeast_form"/>
<field name="yeast_type"/>
<field name="yeast_Flocculation"/>
</group>
</field>
</field>
</record>
</data>
</openerp>
I was planning to make different views for each productType (yeast, malt, hops). But now it seems that the view doesn't work because product.yeast doesn't contain the field 'arch' tough it is inheriting from product.product:So probably I'm modelling my products in the wrong way. What is the preferable way to add fields to different types of products? What are the downsides of my approach? Kind regards and thank you for your comments, Thijsraise ValidationError('\n'.join(errors))
