OpenERP - Get leads data in partner form view

Question

I'm trying to display lead data related to a partner.

But on module installation, I keep having the ValidateError saying Error occurred while validating the field(s) arch: Invalid XML for View Architecture!

I don't know why this is happening, cause I've double checked fields names, and compared my xml structure and content to other module xml view files.

I've also set dependencies to 'base','crm', in __openerp__.py

Does anyone see something wrong in my code below ?

Here is my piece of python code:

class res_partner(osv.osv):
    _inherit = 'res.partner'
    _columns = {
             'lead_ids': fields.one2many('crm.lead', 'partner_id', 'Leads'),
    }

And here my view:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <page string="Accounting" position="after" version="7.0">
  <page string="History" name="cap_history_tab">
    <!-- Customer Leads Group -->
    <group name="grp_leads_history" string="Leads History">
          <field name="lead_ids" colspan="4" nolabel="1">
            <tree string="Partner Leads" editable="false" create="false" delete="false">
              <field name="name" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="create_date" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="date_deadline" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="priority" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="planned_revenue" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="probability" readonly="True"/>
              <field name="state" readonly="True"/>
            </tree>
          </field>
        </group>
  </page>
</page>

When I look to the server log here is the message :

Can't find field 'lead_ids' in the following view parts composing the view of object model 'res.partner'

[EDIT] After a while, and a another restart of the server, the problem is solved and I can see the leads.

Thanks all for your help

Cheers

try this,

<record id="view_partner_property_form1" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name="name">res.partner.property.form.inherit1</field>
    <field name="model">res.partner</field>
    <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <xpath expr="//notebook/page[@string='History']" position="inside">
                <!-- Customer Leads Group -->
            <group name="grp_leads_history" string="Leads History">
                <field name="lead_ids" colspan="4" nolabel="1">
                    <tree string="Partner Leads" editable="false" create="false" delete="false">
                        <field name="name" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="create_date" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="date_deadline" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="priority" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="planned_revenue" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="probability" readonly="True"/>
                        <field name="state" readonly="True"/>
                    </tree>
                </field>
            </group>
        </xpath>
    </field>
</record>

Maybe it is your OpenERP version... I got it working in version 7.0 with the following xml code.

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="res_partner_test_view">
            <field name="res.partner.test.view"/>
            <field name="model">res.partner</field>
            <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <page string="Accounting" position="after" version="7.0">
                  <page string="History" name="cap_history_tab">
                    <group name="grp_leads_history" string="Leads History">
                          <field name="lead_ids" colspan="4" nolabel="1">
                            <tree editable="false" create="false" delete="false" nolabel="1">
                              <field name="name" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="create_date" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="date_deadline" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="priority" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="planned_revenue" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="probability" readonly="True"/>
                              <field name="state" readonly="True"/>
                            </tree>
                          </field>
                        </group>
                  </page>
                  </page>
                </field>
            </record>

Hope it helps, cheers.

PD: I tried both ways, using position="after" and xpath expr="//page[@string='Accounting']" position="after" and both worked fine.
