I am very new to Odoo. It seems a "Client" is a name, a civility, an e-mail address, a phone number and a couple of other features. What if I'd like to have more features describing a "Client" ? Say I want to store the size and weight. How should I proceed ?

Hi,
If you feel you need more fields to the partner form, you can add those new fields using Odoo studio if you are using Odoo enterprise. If you are using the community edition you can add those new fields by editing the original code or you can create a custom module for this.


Creating a custom module is preferred over editing the source code. Also, you can add fields from the user interface also, for that you can have a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZwRvP7lJng


For creating a custom module read this blog: https://www.cybrosys.com/blog/how-create-module-odoo


Also,  you can refer this link to add a new field in existing model:  https://www.odoo.com/forum/help-1/question/extend-an-existing-model-by-inheriting-another-131340


Thanks
