With the help of onchange you can achieve this. ( http://openerp-server.readthedocs.org/en/latest/06_misc_on_change_tips.html [1] )

In XML,
<field name="inactive" on_change="on_change_inactive(inactive)" />

In PY file,

def on_change_inactive(self, cr, uid, ids, inactive, context=None):

return {'value': {'active' : not inactive}}

Hello,

the 'active' field is a multi usage field like "state" ,

I think you've to make on_change method that when the user tick the inactive one, set the 'active' field to False ...
