Hai , 

i want to question ...

Why invisible field can't work, 

I will to invisible field 'birth_date' when I choose customer (with type field is boolean) ...

eg :

I make code in file .py :

'customer': fields.boolean('Customer'),

'birth_date':fields.date('Birth Date'),

 

and , make code in file .xml :

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="res_partner_formTop2_view">
            <field name="name">Position Top2</field>            
            <field name="model">res.partner</field>            
            <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <field name="function" position="before">
                    <field name="customer"/>
                </field>
            </field>
        </record>

 

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="res_partner_form5_view">
            <field name="name">master customer</field>            
            <field name="model">res.partner</field>            
            <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <field name="phone" position="before">
                    <field name="birth_date" attrs="{'invisible': [('customer','!=', True)]}"/>
                </field>
            </field>
        </record>

Does it get invisible when the check box "customer" is not selected? I think you should write as {'invisible':[('customer','=',True)]}. So when you will select the check box it will invisible the field.

Hello Heru,

I guess you have same customer field twice in your partner form. Existing field you can see in Sales & Purchases tab. So syste gets confuse which one to consider.

So if you want to change the position of the field, you should first replace it and then add that field again with desired position.

Try following code:

<!-- Replace existing one first -->
<field name="function" position="replace"/>
<!-- Add the field again at desired position -->
<field name="function" position="before">
    <field name="customer"/>
</field>

customer boolean field is already defined in base module, so you don't have to define it again.
