Hello,

is there a way to show another field instead of rec name in many2one field without changing the rec name?

i mean to keep the rec_name as it is but show another field in a specific form?

Thanks

To display another field in specific form only you need to add context to xml of the Many2One field Then you will override name_get method in the model of Many2one field as below 


def name_get(self):
if context is None:
    context = {}
res = []
if context.get('special_display_name', False):
    for record in self:
        res.append(record.id, rec.YOurFieldYouWantToShow)
else:
    for record in self:
        res.append(record.id, record.name)
return res
