Disclaimer: Total newbie.
I have a two tables, routes (ruta) and drivers (conductor), each route has an assigned driver so in the route model I created a many2one field linking both tables:
conductor_id = fields.Many2one('produccion.conductor', required=True)
conductor_nombre = fields.Char(related='conductor_id.nombre', string="Conductor")
I can succesfully display the drivers name on a list by adding the conductor_nombre field, however, on a form, the dropdown for the driver field displays the driver ID, how do I make it dispaly the driver´s name only?
<field name="conductor_id"/>
By default, Odoo allows searching customers only by name and displays only the name in Many2One fields. This module enhances the Many2One search and display functionality by enabling users to search using multiple fields (Phone, Email, Mobile, etc.) and display multiple values directly inside the Partners Many2One selection.
