Re: [Odoo CE 17.0] Help needed with client search on budgets 

Hi
in case you just need a shortcut for customers, you can use the 'ref' 
field in res.partner. Search its content in name or company name. 
Beware, it is case sensitive.

  • [Odoo CE 17.0] Help needed with client search on budgets
    Hello everyone,
     
    I am writing this message because I need assistance with modifying how searching a client while doing a budget works.
     
    What I am trying to do is, instead of searching just by the name, I want it to work like the following: I made a custom field called "x_cliente_interno", which is a number to identify the client, and I would like to make the search work like how product search works: If you write either the product's ID or the product's name, it will show you both fields merged from the data you wrote. Something like this:
     
     
    And when you select it, it shows the data like this:
     
     
    To sum up, what I am trying to do is that when you search a client, the search shows you the field "x_cliente_interno" behind the client name, like this: "[x_cliente_interno] client name" and it should also stay like in the second image when selected.
     
    Thanks in advance for the help.

      Hi @Redes Sociales JLBBERP  

      I didn't noticed at first but indeed you're right, thank you for pointing that out. 

      The fact that you see those info about VAT and address is basically due to the field context (defined in XML field definition) which contains key values like 'show_vat': 1. That context is propagated to the python context which will be evaluated in odoo 17 _compute_display_name method. 

      The code I gave you was totally overriding that context evaluation but this issue can be easily avoided by extending the _get_complete_name() hook instead, which is called in the first lines of _compute_display_name and can be extended to add values without overriding the context evaluation part. So I suggest to remove the _compute_display_name() override and replace it with the following 


      x_cliente_interno = fields.Integer() # use a standard field for consistency

      def _get_complete_name(self):
      """@override: add `x_cliente_interno` field to the complete name"""
      complete_name = super()._get_complete_name()
      cliente_interno = f"[{self.x_cliente_interno}] " if self.x_cliente_interno else ""
      complete_name_add_cliente_interno = cliente_interno + complete_name
      return complete_name_add_cliente_interno


      I made a quick test locally and this should be able to fix the issue

      Kindly regards

      --Francesco

      Hello everyone,
       
      after making a custom module with Francescos' code and fixing the search function, I came across a problem related to how the partner is displayed at the sales order form:
       
      When searching for a customer, they are displayed with the following format: "[x_cliente_interno] + customer name", which is the exact format I needed. But the problem is that when I select any customer, it doesn't show it's address and neither it's VAT below the customer anymore.
       
      Here I send my version of the code from Francesco:
       
      from odoo import models, fields, api

      class ResPartner(models.Model):
       
      _inherit = “res.partner”

      x_cliente_interno = fields.Integer() # use a standard field for consistency

      @api.depends(“name”, “x_cliente_interno”)
      def _compute_display_name(self):
      “""Show reference code before partner name""”
      super()._compute_display_name()
      for partner in self:
      name = partner.name or “unknown”
      cliente_interno = f"[{partner.x_cliente_interno}] " if partner.x_cliente_interno else ""
      # !! Disclaimer !!
      # If you copy this code and change it DO NOT ASSIGN the value of partner.name,
      # that would compromise your datas. Only re-assign partner.display_name
      partner.display_name = cliente_interno + name # It's replacing the whole field

      @api.model
      def _name_search(self, name, domain=None, operator='ilike', limit=None, order=None):
      “""Add custom field `cliente_interno` to the search domain""”
      domain = domain or []
      if name:
      domain += ['|', '|', ('name', operator, name),                     
      ('email', operator, name),                     
      ('x_cliente_interno', '=', name)]
      return self._search(domain, limit=limit, order=order)
       
      I tried fixing it by myself, and even if I wasn't able to, I discovered the field "partner.display_name" is the one causing this problem.
       
      Thanks in advance for the help.

      I apologize, it is now clear to me also that you need both the search from a custom field and the way the name is displayed, but the search is indeed prioritized. 
       
      As Daniel and Xavier pointed out, in Odoo 17.0 you can already submit the "ref" field (field label on GUI is "Reference") and get the right record. E.g. if you have a contact named John Doe with Reference set on "ab-001" and you search for "ab-001" in the contacts search or dropdown you will fetch John Doe. 
       
      You could migrate your "x_cliente_interno" data into the "ref" field, and this would automatically unlock the search feature. However if you need to keep this data in a specific custom field you will need to override _name_search() method. 
      In every case you will also need to override _compute_display_name if you want to also show the code before the field. I provided a couple of snippet below (just as an example, especially the _name_search override needs to be refined).
       
      Let me point out another thing: from the field name I assume you are using a field defined from GUI, unfortunately it's not recommended to use those kind of fields in python methods as it will easily lead to inconsistencies and bugs (e.g. if you delete field from db and not remove it from python methods..). This means that if you want to use a custom field in _name_search() override you should migrate data to a standard field aniway.

      This is an example of what you might do on a custom module. As you can see the _name_search() implementation has to be refined while the_compute_display_name method will work as is. 
      If you decide to migrate data into the "ref" field you can only implement _compute_display_name by replacing "cliente_interno" with "ref" and you do not need to implement _name_search() in this case.
       
      from odoo import models, fields, api
      from odoo.osv import expression

      class ResPartner(models.Model):
      _inherit = "res.partner"

      cliente_interno = fields.Char() # use a standard field for consistency

      @api.depends("name", "cliente_interno")
      def _compute_display_name(self):
      """Show reference code before partner name"""
      super()._compute_display_name()
      for partner in self:
      name = partner.name or "unknown"
      cliente_interno = f"[{partner.cliente_interno}] " if partner.cliente_interno else ""
      # !! Disclaimer !!
      #I f you copy this code and change it DO NOT ASSIGN the value of partner.name,
      # that would compromise your datas. Only re-assign partner.display_name
      partner.display_name = cliente_interno + name

      @api.model
      def _name_search(self, name, domain=None, operator='ilike', limit=None, order=None):
      """Add custom field `cliente_interno` to the search domain"""
      domain = expression.OR([domain or [], [("cliente_interno", operator, name)]])
      # this doesn't work properly, it seems like the domain we pass gets overridden,
      # might take this as example and adjust by debugging/find more examples on source code
      return super()._name_search(name, domain=domain, operator=operator, limit=limit, order=order)

      What I am trying to do is, instead of searching just by the name, I want it to work like the following: I made a custom field called "x_cliente_interno", which is a number to identify the client, and I would like to make the search work like how product search works: If you write either the product's ID or the product's name, it will show you both fields merged from the data you wrote. Something like this:
       
       
      And when you select it, it shows the data like this:
       
       
      To sum up, what I am trying to do is that when you search a client, the search shows you the field "x_cliente_interno" behind the client name, like this: "[x_cliente_interno] client name" and it should also stay like in the second image when selected.
       
      Thanks in advance for the help.

anybody interested in only the searching part can use
https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/16.0/base_name_search_improved
without typing any code. The migration to v17 happened in
https://github.com/OCA/server-tools/pull/2831

Could be worthwhile to add a companion to this module allowing to configure the 
display name via UI too.

    • Re: [Odoo CE 17.0] Help needed with client search on budgets
      I apologize, it is now clear to me also that you need both the search from a custom field and the way the name is displayed, but the search is indeed prioritized. 

      As Daniel and Xavier pointed out, in Odoo 17.0 you can already submit the "ref" field (field label on GUI is "Reference") and get the right record. E.g. if you have a contact named John Doe with Reference set on "ab-001" and you search for "ab-001" in the contacts search or dropdown you will fetch John Doe. 

      You could migrate your "x_cliente_interno" data into the "ref" field, and this would automatically unlock the search feature. However if you need to keep this data in a specific custom field you will need to override _name_search() method. 
      In every case you will also need to override _compute_display_name if you want to also show the code before the field. I provided a couple of snippet below (just as an example, especially the _name_search override needs to be refined).

      Let me point out another thing: from the field name I assume you are using a field defined from GUI, unfortunately it's not recommended to use those kind of fields in python methods as it will easily lead to inconsistencies and bugs (e.g. if you delete field from db and not remove it from python methods..). This means that if you want to use a custom field in _name_search() override you should migrate data to a standard field aniway.

      This is an example of what you might do on a custom module. As you can see the _name_search() implementation has to be refined while the_compute_display_name method will work as is. 
      If you decide to migrate data into the "ref" field you can only implement _compute_display_name by replacing "cliente_interno" with "ref" and you do not need to implement _name_search() in this case.

      from odoo import models, fields, api
      from odoo.osv import expression

      class ResPartner(models.Model):
      _inherit = "res.partner"

      cliente_interno = fields.Char() # use a standard field for consistency

      @api.depends("name", "cliente_interno")
      def _compute_display_name(self):
      """Show reference code before partner name"""
      super()._compute_display_name()
      for partner in self:
      name = partner.name or "unknown"
      cliente_interno = f"[{partner.cliente_interno}] " if partner.cliente_interno else ""
      # !! Disclaimer !!
      #I f you copy this code and change it DO NOT ASSIGN the value of partner.name,
      # that would compromise your datas. Only re-assign partner.display_name
      partner.display_name = cliente_interno + name

      @api.model
      def _name_search(self, name, domain=None, operator='ilike', limit=None, order=None):
      """Add custom field `cliente_interno` to the search domain"""
      domain = expression.OR([domain or [], [("cliente_interno", operator, name)]])
      # this doesn't work properly, it seems like the domain we pass gets overridden,
      # might take this as example and adjust by debugging/find more examples on source code
      return super()._name_search(name, domain=domain, operator=operator, limit=limit, order=order)
