Some time ago, I had someone help me by adding a custom field to a contact. They created a file:

/opt/odoo/customized_addons/odoo-custom-addons/partner_extra/models/res_partner.py

which contains this code:

class ResPartner(models.Model):

    """Adds ."""

    _inherit = "res.partner"

    recruitment = fields.Selection([

                                    ('c2c', 'Corp to Corp (C2C)'),

                                    ('w2', 'Full Time (W-2)')

                                   ],'Recruiter'

                                  )

And this works ok. But I would like to add additional options and maybe even additional whole fields. I am fluent in Python and have worked with Django and other things so I'm familiar with MVC and databases etc. But I have never written custom code for Odoo before.

I have changed the above to add an option like so:

    recruitment = fields.Selection([

                                    ('c2c', 'Corp to Corp (C2C)'),

                                    ('w2', 'Full Time (W-2)'),

                                    ('new option','New Option'),

                                   ],'Recruiter'

                                  )

and deleted the compiled and cached __pycache__/res_partner.cpython-36.pyc but the change does not appear in Odoo. Is there some other step I need to take? Maybe some command I need to run to update the database schema to allow for this new option?

Thanks!
