Dear Wizardz,

try this code

from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

@api.onchange('invoice_payed')
def _check_change(self):
if self.invoice_payed:
       date_1= (datetime.strptime(self.invoice_payed, '%Y-%m-%d')+relativedelta(days =+ 42))

       self.pay_date =date_1

else:

        self.pay_date =False


I hope I helped you...

wow amazing. what was the problem with that bool? it's because invoice_payed comes as a bool back if it's emptry?

I have fix it with that:

@api.onchange('invoice_payed')
 def _check_change(self):
date_1 = datetime.datetime.strptime(self.invoice_payed, "%Y-%m-%d")
 self.pay_date = date_1 + datetime.timedelta(days=42)


Now when I create a new record it gives me this error:

date_1 = datetime.datetime.strptime(self.invoice_payed, "%Y-%m-%d")

TypeError: must be string, not bool


self.invoice_payed , why is this a bool when I have a date field ?

Hi Wizardz,

if your date filed is empty (meaning you have not stored any value in it yet), the ORM will return False.

That's why, you must use the if self.invoice_payed to make sure the field contains a valid datetime value.


@api.onchange('invoice_payed') 
def _check_change(self):
    if self.invoice_payed:
        date_1 = datetime.datetime.strptime(self.invoice_payed, "%Y-%m-%d") 
        self.pay_date = date_1 + datetime.timedelta(days=42)

 

Best regards

Yvan
