I recently deleted the default email template for invoice emails, and now when I click on the 'Send by Email' button, an error is thrown:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    default_template_id=template.id,
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

 Can someone please explain to me, in very precise steps, how I can set a different template as the default.

The code lookin for the template with external Id "account.email_template_edi_invoice"!

so you can just create a ir.model.data which one point to your new template with name account.email_template_edi_invoice

Login in and




active debug to have technical features





 




Create the new email template







 






 


Retrieve the ID in url

/web?&debug=#id=24&view_type=form&model=mail.template&action=168


 Create external id

Thanks that worked, although it should be email.template in the model name.

Hi, that depend of your version
since commit d88c34d11e87857a799ecbb0062fe9309858413d, email.template has been renamed into mail.template.
To make simple: you can just take a look in url /web?&debug=#id=24&view_type=form&model=mail.template&action=168

In any case, now you understand how to create a new external Id ... And you are ready to continue your odoo journey :p

What I am a little annoyed about, is I had to create a new external id -- when deleting the template, it seemed to cascade the delete to also remove the external identifier (database probably has foreign key cascade on delete).

Yes, it is and it is normal !
The external id has no sense if there are no record...
What are you trying to do ?
