Hi

It seems i didn't understand how you said, so what changes i need to do in xml files?

i meant form view

Hello Berctain, just define it only in python itself. that's enough to set whatever field u want. No changes in xml view.

eg:

class ResLetter(models.Model):

_name = 'res.letter'

@api.onchange('amount_total')

def _compute_note_date(self):

self.name = self.expeditor_ref

note = fields.Text(digits=(16,4))

its name = fields.Text() not note

Thanks Annadurai,

it worked for date field but in number field since that field create automatically with system on create then this code just put one slash inside note, need to change it to create, and another thing is i would have this data inside a special tables and read only .. so how can i make a template for this note field.. like a selectable template?!
