Hi,

For products.
I want to be able to search in the description field.
Currently we search in reference and in name.

Thanks,
Mihai

The function to modify is name_search . I think it is already modified in product module, so you have a template to work from. It is pretty easy. I think product_variant_multi might do some mods to name_search for product.product as well for more examples.

YES.
Thanks
indeed I added this to name_search fucntion in the product.py

Code:

            if not len(ids):
                ids = self.search(cr, user, [('description','=',name)]+ args, limit=limit, context=context)

And if type the description inside a sales line, it will search for the product.

Thank you. It saved me a lot.
