I added a field `partner_code` to `res.partner`. I am now trying to search customer or supplier by the new field when creating a draft invoice.

this is the xml code which is causing an error:

`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!--suppress XmlUnboundNsPrefix --> <openerp> <data> <record id="odootec_invoice_supplier_form" model="ir.ui.view"> <field name="name">account.invoice.supplier.form</field> <field name="model">account.invoice</field> <field name="inherit_id" ref="account.invoice_supplier_form"/> <field name="arch" type="xml"> <xpath expr="//field[@string='partner_id]" position="attributes"> <attribute name="attrs">{'filter_domain':['|','|',('display_name','ilike',self),('partner_code','ilike',self),('ref','=',self),('email','ilike',self)]}</attribute> <!--<attribute name="filter_domain">['|','|',('display_name','ilike',self),('partner_code','ilike',self),('ref','=',self),('email','ilike',self)]</attribute>--> </xpath> </field> </record> </data> </openerp> `

this is the error:

Unfinished literal in:

<xpath expr="//field[@string='partner_id]"   ...
