EP-18 What are Fields in Odoo 18 | Simple Fields Part 2 | Odoo 18 Development Tutorials | Odoo 18
4The Date & Time field is used to select a date on a calendar and a time on a clock. The user’s current time is automatically used if no time is set.
Tip
As well as general properties, some specific properties are available for Date & Time fields that have the Date & Time or Date Range widget set.
Date Range (daterange)
The Date Range widget is used to display a period of time defined by a start date and an end date in a single line. A date range can have a mandatory start and end date, e.g., for a multi-day event, or allow an optional start or end date, e.g., for a field service intervention or a project task.
Adding a date range requires two fields: a Date & Time field with the Date Range widget set and another field that is selected as the start date or end date. This underlying field can be an existing Date or Date & Time field, or one created specifically for this purpose.
Remaining Days (remaining_days)
The Remaining Days widget displays the remaining number of days before the selected date (e.g., In 5 days), based on the current date and time. This field should be set to Read only.
Checkbox (boolean)
The Checkbox field is used when a value should only be true or false, indicated by checking or unchecking a checkbox.
Button: displays a radio button. The widget works without switching to the edit mode.
Toggle: displays a toggle button. The widget works without switching to the edit mode.
Selection (selection)
The Selection field is used when users should select a single value from a group of predefined values.
Badge: displays the value inside a rounded shape, similar to a tag. The value cannot be edited on the UI, but a default value can be set.
Badges: displays all selectable values simultaneously inside rectangular shapes, organized horizontally.
Priority: displays star symbols instead of values, which can be used to indicate an importance or satisfaction level, for example. This has the same effect as selecting the Priority field, although, for the latter, four priority values are already predefined.
Radio: displays all selectable values at the same time as radio buttons.
Tip
By default, radio buttons are organized vertically. Enable Display horizontally to switch the way they are displayed.
Status Bar: displays all selectable values at the same time as an arrow progress bar.
Tip
By default, values on the status bar are selectable. Disable Clickable to prevent the value being edited on the UI.
Priority (selection)
The Priority field is used to display a three-star rating system, which can be used to indicate importance or satisfaction level. This field type is a Selection field with the Priority widget selected by default and four priority values predefined. Consequently, the Badge, Badges, Radio, and Selection widgets have the same effects as described under Selection.
Tip
To change the number of available stars by adding or removing values, click Edit Values. Note that the first value is equal to 0 stars (i.e., when no selection is made), so having four values results in a three-star rating system, for example.
File (binary)
The File field is used to upload any type of file, or sign a form (Sign widget).
Image: users can upload an image file, which is then displayed in Form view. This has the same effect as using the Image field.
PDF Viewer: users can upload a PDF file, which can be then browsed from the Form view.
Sign: users can electronically sign the form. This has the same effect as selecting the Sign field.
Image (binary)
The Image field is used to upload an image and display it in Form view. This field type is a File field with the Image widget selected by default. Consequently, the File, PDF Viewer, and Sign widgets have the same effects as described under File.
Tip
To change the display size of uploaded images, select Small, Medium, or Large under the Size option.
Sign (binary)
The Sign field is used to sign the form electronically. This field type is a File field with the Sign widget selected by default. Consequently, the File, Image, and PDF Viewer widgets have the same effects as described under File.
Tip
To give users the Auto option when having to draw their signature, select one of the available Auto-complete with fields (Text, Many2One, and Related Field on the model only). The signature is automatically generated using the data from the selected field.
