"record.company_id.name"


Here record represents the object/model, which is in the form of ORM browse_record, which lets to access/traverse its field along with its child fields.


Example:

say "record" is "sale.order"

Then lets us consider there are 2 fields "date_order", and "company_id"  present in the object "sale.order"

Now you can access the fields of sale.order by using dot"." notation as follows

"record.date_order" and/or "record.company_id"

However "company_id" is a relation field (i.e many2one) hence you have the privilege to access the fields present in company object as well.


Hence record.company_id.name or record.company_id.[ANYOTHER_FIELDS_OF_COMPANY_OBJECT]
