Hello,

Unfortunately, I cannot directly access and check your Odoo code.

However, I can guide you on how to verify the order of declarations in the manifest file and ensure the menu view is placed last.

Look for the following declarations in the manifest file:

'qweb': [ ... ], (Defines QWeb views)
'actions': [ ... ], (Defines actions)
'menu': [ ... ], (Defines menu items)

Hope it helps

Is it necessary to have these 3 declarations in __manifest__.py file.

Cruz

'data':[
'security/ir.model.access.csv',
'views/hr_employee_views.xml',
'views/hr_employee_history_views.xml',
'views/hr_employee_report_views.xml',
'report/ir_actions_report.xml',
'report/employee_report.xml',
'wizard/employee_details_report_view.xml',
'views/menu.xml',
],
Is this correct

It's get resolved, after the data in __manifest__.py get changed as above.

But new error is formed:

Hi,

The error message "External ID not found in the system" typically occurs when Odoo is unable to locate the specified external identifier (XML ID) in its database.

In your case, the XML ID gb_custom_hr.action_report_employment is not found in the system. This could happen for several reasons:

1)Double-check the XML ID to ensure that it is spelled correctly and matches the actual ID used in your code or configuration.

2)Verify that the XML ID is correctly defined in your code or data files. It should be defined either in a view, a menu item, an action, or any other relevant place.

3)If this XML ID is defined in a module, ensure that the module containing the XML ID is installed and properly loaded in your Odoo instance.

4)Ensure that you are referencing the XML ID within the correct scope. For example, if the XML ID belongs to a specific module, make sure you are referencing it within that module's context.

5) Make sure you have given the XML id in the manifest before it is referenced or used in a different place.

Hope it helps

Hi,

Check for the usage of action_report_employment in your module and make sure this record will load into the db before it is referenced or used in a different place.

For example, if you have a menu linked with action, the action declaration should come first and then the menu definition

If you are new to odoo development, see: Odoo Development Tutorials

Thanks

Niyas Raphy (Walnut Software Solutions)

Ok good, so does it load in manifest ?
it should be something like this in your manifest:
'data': [
'wizard/your wizard xml here',
'views/menu.xml',
],
note because the action is in the wizard xml so it need to load first

Cruz

Author

Yes, I just added those in __manifest__.py

Dương Nguyễn

So dose it solved, try upgrade the module

Cruz

No, still the same issue
