Hi,

To inherit views and add new fields, I have successfully followed the steps described in this link:
http://www.slideshare.net/openobject/how-to-customize-views-menues-of-open-erp-online-in-a-sustainable-way-frederic-gilson

I was also able to create a new tab and use <group> to organise my fields. Now I would like to add a new checkbox "Agent" below the "Supplier" field on a partner's "Sales & Purchases" tab, but the approach seems different. Simply referencing the field to insert after doesn't work.

This is the inherited view I have tried (without luck):

Object: res.partner
Inherited view: res.partner.form

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<field name="supplier" position="after"> 
     <field name="x_agent" /> 
</field>

...the above works fine if I replace "supplier" with "website" since it's a field on the main partner form I guess.

Any clues anyone? Did I inherit the wrong view? How do I find the right one?

Thanks.
