I want to add this, but it's not working:

account_invoice.py

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from openerp import api

from openerp.osv import fields, osv





class account_invoice(osv.osv):

    _inherit = 'account.invoice'





    _columns = {

        'notes_header': fields.text(''),

        'notes_footer': fields.text('')

    }



class account_invoice_line(osv.osv):

    _inherit = 'account.invoice.line'



    _columns = {

        'product_position': fields.char(''),

        'product_note': fields.text('')

    }

account_invoice.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<openerp>

    <data>

        <record id="account_invoice_form_ext_view" model="ir.ui.view">

			<field name="model">account.invoice</field>

			<field name="type">form</field>

 			<field name="inherit_id" ref="account.view_invoice_form" />

 			<field name="arch" type="xml">

            <xpath expr="/form/sheet/notebook/page/field[@name='comment']" position="after">

                    <field name="notes_header" placeholder="Kopfzeile" />

                    <field name="notes_footer" placeholder="Fusszeile" />

				</xpath>

			</field>

		</record>







        <record model="ir.ui.view" id="invoice_margin_percent_1">

        <field name="name">account.margin.percent.view.form</field>

        <field name="model">account.invoice</field>

        <field name="inherit_id" ref="account.view_invoice_form"/>

        <field name="arch" type="xml">

            <xpath expr="//field[@name='invoice_line']/form//field[@name='product_id']" position="before">

            </xpath>

            <xpath expr="//field[@name='invoice_line']/form//field[@name='name']" position="before">

            </xpath>

        </field>

Can someone help me ? I wanna add 2 fields in account_invoice under comment or above, and then a column "position" in the invoice_order_line.

Hi @wizardz

Check that you are importing the .py that contains the account.invoice extension in your module __init__.py file, perhaps you forget to import the file that contains the extension

1) You restart server after change code .py

2) Verify how many instances of odoo server you have, should be one.

3) Do not forget to add 'depends': ['account'] in __openerp__.py

4) Do not forget to add your_file_name.py to __init__.py

The name of the view is wrong

ref="account.view_invoice_form"

the correct one is

ref="account.invoice_form"

In Python file:

class size_details_line(osv.Model):
    _name = 'account.invoice.line'
    _inherit = 'account.invoice.line'
    _description = ''
    _columns = {         
         'the_size': fields.text('The Size', size=30),        
    }

In XML File:

<record id="account_invoice_adding_form" model="ir.ui.view">
             <field name="name">account.invoiceee.form.inherit</field>
             <field name="model">account.invoice</field>
             <field name="inherit_id" ref="account.invoice_form"/>
             <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <xpath expr="//tree[@string='Invoice Lines']/field[@name='product_id']" position="after" >                   
                   <field name="the_size" />
                </xpath>
             </field>
</record>

This should do the trick. I am doing this way. :)
