Can someone help me in adding custom fields in the existing form views in odoo 10.0. In Odoo 9.0 there was an option called "manage views" so from that we can easily add the custom fields just like drag and drop. But in odoo 10.0 that option is not available. Someone please help me in this problem.

Hi Ahmed Sharief,
Define a custom_field in python file

from odoo import models, fields

class DemoInherited(models.Model):
_inherit = 'model_name'

custom_field = fields.Char(string='Custom Field')

Then check the XML

<!--Inherit the corresponding form view--> 
<record id="view_model_name_custom" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">test.custom.form.inherited</field>
<field name="model">model_name</field>
<field name="inherit_id" ref="external_id_of_form"/>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<xpath expr="//field[@name='field_in_original_form']" position="after">
<field name="custom_field"/>
  </xpath>
</field>
</record>

Thank you

In case of editing project form view:

1. developer mode>database structure>fields>create

2. Open some project form view. Select from developer menu "edit form view" and follow the instructions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCUY-Pzn1gU
