Hello Odooers.
I want to add one value To Approve in state field on invoice after Draft.
so sequence will be like. draft,to approve,open,paid.
i know about attribute selection_add but it add value at the end of selection list.
any idea to add value at specific location.?
Finally got solution. Thanks Yenthe, to bring it up.
selection = [('a', 'A'), ('b', 'B')]
selection_add = [('c', 'C'), ('b',)]
> result = [('a', 'A'), ('c', 'C'), ('b', 'B')]
Hi Alpesh,
Sadly there is no way to do this in Odoo right now, its a limitation of the current framework. You'll either need to use selection_add to add the element at the end of the selection:
state = fields.Selection(selection_add=[('to_approve', 'To approve')])
or recreate the whole field definition from scratch so you can add the selection value at the place you'd like:
state = fields.Selection(selection=[
('draft', 'Draft'),
('to_approve', 'To approve'),
('posted', 'Posted'),
('cancel', 'Cancelled')
], string='Status', required=True, readonly=True, copy=False, tracking=True,default='draft')
Regards,
Yenthe
Thanks Yenthe. but i prefer to use selection_add.
hope odoo give some positional attribute to add it on specific location in future version.
its shows me warring in log, to use 'add_selection' instead of overwrite whole field.
Yeah and I can understand why :-) I know Odoo has discussed position attributes somewhere in the past (e.g. by adding a sequence to every key of a selection field) but it has never been implemented/approved by Odoo S.A. sadly.
Its an informative warning from Odoo that has been added in V13 (or V12). You can ignore it but its a fact that in most cases a selection_add is the best solution.
Right.
