I am trying to inherit the form view from Action: Manufacturing -> Products -> Products to insert a new field in the view.
Here is the code for my python file:
from openerp import models, fields
class product_template(models.Model):
_inherit = 'product.template'
drawingfilename = fields.Char(string="DrawingFileName")
And my view xml:
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_product_template_product_form_inherit">
<field name="name">ICE Product Product Inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id">product.product_template_form_view</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
<data>
<xpath expr='//form/sheet/div[0]/div[0]/label' position="after">
<field name="drawingfilename"/>
</xpath>
</data>
</field>
</record>
I see that my field is created appropriately in the database, but when I go to install the module for the first time, I get the following error:
test openerp.sql_db: bad query: SELECT ir_ui_view."inherit_id",ir_ui_view."create_date",ir_ui_view."name",ir_ui_view."create_uid",ir_ui_view."

WHERE ir_ui_view.id IN ('product.product_template_form_view') AND (TRUE)

<field name="name">ICE Product Product Inherit</field>
<field name="model">product.template</field>
<field name="inherit_id">product.product_template_form_view</field>
It looks like it is not running a select somewhere to change 'product.product_template_form_view' to an 'id.'
Am I mistaken in using that particular form as the inherit_id? Is there something I am missing?
did you inherited product.product to add that field,,can you please give that code too?
@Baiju KS, I just updated my question with the full code in python and the view xml. I thought the product.template was the correct model to inherit. Is that not true?
I just tried with the following python: class product_product(models.Model): _inherit = 'product.product' drawingfilename = fields.Char(string="DrawingFileName") and the View xml: ICE Product Product Inherit product.product product.product_template_form_view Still getting the ParseError: on a brand new database (dropped the old one, restored from a backup that was made before trying the install)
I have created a github for review here: https://github.com/michaeljohn32/mrp_iceproducts
