We have created a new field for the partner model, but still not visible to the user, to achieve this we have to add operations in the respective views. Go back to the aforementioned res.partner model details page, click the Views tab, we can see that each view defined modules. As can be seen, each view is a database record, modify, add, or view records with immediate effect, the next time you load the view when you can see:
View list there are some caveats, we see a different view types (View Type), such as a form view (Form), the tree list view (Tree), search View (Search) and Kanban view (Kanban). Search view refers to the upper right corner of the search box filtering options. Other methods of data display view also vary, a list of the basic type and form views (see for details).
"Tips: tree (Tree) and list views (List) actually the same view, in fact Odoo in the list view, the name of the tree view is generated by historical reasons - in the past a tree view list hierarchy to show. "
It can be seen that multiple definitions of the same type of view ordering may be more clearly seen by the View Type. Each type of view (e.g., form view) may have one or more view definitions base (containing an empty field of view inheritance). Action menu items using the window (Window Action) can use to specify the base view, if not defined, will use the ranking value (Sequence) minimum, which can be regarded as the default view. Click on the view, you can see all the details contains the sort of value, including in the form
Each base view can have multiple extensions, called inheritance view. Each view can add modifications to inherit base view, such as adding to the existing form fields.
"Tips: Inheritance view itself can be inherited by other views, then the outermost layer of the inner layer succession after succession executive role in the base view."

That is res.partner.form view, you can see the module owner by External ID. This place is base.view_partner_form, so we know that this view belongs to the base module. Architecture in the field, we can see the base view definition XML code. We can edit the structure view and add
