Odoo DIN5008 append or change information_block

Question

I'm having trouble append extra information to the information_block of the DIN5008 template. I inherited the sale.order module like suggested here. I tried override both _compute_l10n_de_template_data functions in the sale.order and the account.move but nothing changes. I can't append nor leave everything empty. If I look for models in the odoo inteface I can see, that my module inherits the sale.order and account.move model. So I don't think I have an error in my __init__.py files. I can also create new fields, but trying to overwrite those functions won't change the output in the report.

Here is my code for the sale.order model:

from odoo import models, fields, _
from odoo.tools import format_date


class SaleOrder(models.Model):
    _inherit = 'sale.order'

    l10n_de_template_data = fields.Binary(compute='_compute_l10n_de_template_data')

    def _compute_l10n_de_template_data(self):
        for record in self:
            record.l10n_de_template_data = data = []
            if record.state in ('draft', 'sent'):
                if record.name:
                    data.append((_("Quotation No."), record.name))
                if record.date_order:
                    data.append((_("Quotation Date"), format_date(self.env, record.date_order)))
                if record.validity_date:
                    data.append((_("Expiration"), format_date(self.env, record.validity_date)))
            else:
                if record.name:
                    data.append((_("Order No."), record.name))
                if record.date_order:
                    data.append((_("Order Date"), format_date(self.env, record.date_order)))
            if record.client_order_ref:
                data.append((_('Customer Reference'), record.client_order_ref))
            if record.user_id:
                data.append((_("Salesperson"), record.user_id.name))
            if record.partner_id:
                data.append((_("Customer"), record.partner_id))

It doesn't matter what I do to _compute_l10n_de_template_data I can't see my changes in an offer or invoice (if I change the function in account.move) Seems like I'm doing something fundamentally wrong.

You already linked to addon l10n_de_sale in which you can find the definition of _compute_l10n_de_template_data and its DIN 5008 infoblock.

See here.

I ended up adding additional information to the block in the code. After restarting the service it worked well for me.

if record.user_id and record.user_id.mobile:
    data.append((_("Mobile"), record.user_id.mobile))
if record.user_id and record.user_id.email:
    data.append((_("Email"), record.user_id.email))
if record.commitment_date:
    data.append((_("Estimated Delivery"), format_date(self.env, record.commitment_date)))

It shouldn't be forgotten to restart the service to make the changes work.

To have the labels tranlated i generated missing translations in settings and could translate the newly added labels.

Is there any way to add to that block without changing the code? I.e. via QWeb inheritance and XPATH only? I've posted my question here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74275867/odoo-din5008-append-or-change-information-block-via-xpath — Crazor, Nov 01 '22 at 12:21
