If you want to add field in which users selects a year: make a selection field. An example for a year from 2000 to 2030:
@api.model
def year_selection(self):
year = 2000 # replace 2000 with your a start year
year_list = []
while year != 2030: # replace 2030 with your end year
year_list.append((str(year), str(year)))
year += 1
return year_list
year = fields.Selection(
year_selection,
string="Year",
default="2019", # as a default value it would be 2019
) If you want to retrieve a year from a date

year_of_completion = fields.Selection(
selection='years_selection',
string="Estimated Year of Completion",
default="2021" # as a default value it would be 2019
)
def years_selection(self):
year_list = []
for y in range(datetime.now().year, datetime.now().year + 10):
year_list.append((str(y), str(y)))
return year_list I have already defined these two and these are working fine in my localhost. But when I pushed it onto live server, it doesn't work. Can anyone help me with this?

Hi,
try this code to get year or month.
date = datetime.strptime(date_field, DEFAULT_SERVER_DATE_FORMAT) month = date.month year = date.year
