Question

I have a class created with the following code

class exp(osv.osv):
    _name = "sim.exp"
    _description = "xxx"
    _columns = {
        'building': fields.many2one('sim.buildings','Building',required=True,ondelete='cascade'),
        'owner': fields.many2one('sim.student','Name of Owner',required=True,ondelete='cascade'),
    }
exp()

I have a specific problem with the owner field which for some reason gives me back the regnum field and I wish to get back the student_name field instead

My sim.student class looks like the following

class student(osv.osv):
    _name = "sim.student"
    _description = "xxx"
    _columns = {
        'student_name': fields.char('Name',size=256,required=True),
        'regnum': fields.char('Registration Number',size=256,required=True),
        'father_name': fields.char('Last Name',size=256),
        'gender':fields.selection([('male','Male'),('female','Female')],'Gender'),
        'contact_no':fields.char('e-mail',size=256),
        'building': fields.many2one('sim.buildings','Consorcio',required=True,ondelete='cascade'),

    }
student()

Is there any way to specifically get the student_name ?

Any tip in the right direction will be much appreciated!

Answer 1

It seems you did not specify rec_name in you `sim.student’ class.

Add rec_name in your class:

class student(osv.osv):
    rec_name = 'student_name'

Hope it will solve your problem.
