Hi Odoo'ers,
We create invoices via the Odoo API successfully in V15. When running the exact same code against the same database in Odoo V16, we get a failure here:
ValueError: Invalid field 'exclude_from_invoice_tab' on model 'account.move.line' "
I checked the database fields and found that the field 'exclude_from_invoice_tab' is indeed removed from the database in Odoo V16.
Would it be safe and as easy as excluding this field when creating invoice lines, and did anyone maybe go through this process already and is able to give me pointers of changes in the accounting module that would need to be considered to get the invoices to be created successfully in Odoo V16?
I would really appreciate any help.
Hello! Can you tell me how you solved this?
Hey Abhinav,
Unfortunately - there is no easy answer. The info provided by "Digital Domus s.n.c" should be considered, but it is quite a project - out company had to delay our Odoo 16 upgrade because of this. Sorry for not being able to be of more help, but even once my company's devs get this sorted, there simply isn't a very quick and dirty answer to this. The Odoo API require the dev to fully understand the underlying database structure of the Odoo system, and create the table entries into the database (via API) exactly as how the front end would do it. It's a mission my friend.
Configure the Odoo log file to show you the calls, do what you want in Odoo, then review the log to learn which calls with which data are needed - https://www.odoo.com/forum/help-1/how-can-i-see-which-api-calls-are-made-to-learn-what-odoo-is-doing-at-specific-times-183911
