View types

Sumeru workspace views are declared in XML (type on ) and rendered by SWC components registered in core/swc/src/main.ts. Include view modes in window actions: view_mode="kanban,list,form".

Summary

List / tree

<view id="view_crm_lead_tree" model="crm.lead" type="list">
  <field name="name"/>
  <field name="partner_id"/>
  <field name="stage_id"/>
  <field name="priority" widget="priority"/>
  <field name="user_id"/>
</view>

SWC behaviour: Toolbar with New, search (?q= param), export/import, row selection + bulk delete, server page/sort. When two or more rows are selected, list header object buttons (arch.header.buttons) run via call with active_ids. Row click opens form via SPA navigation.

Form

<view id="view_crm_lead_form" model="crm.lead" type="form">
  <header>
    <button name="action_convert_wizard" type="object" string="Convert"/>
    <button name="action_merge_wizard" type="object" string="Merge"/>
    <button name="action_lost_wizard" type="object" string="Lost"/>
    <field name="stage_id" widget="statusbar" options="clickable:1"/>
  </header>
  <sheet>
    <div class="sum_title">
      <h1><field name="name"/></h1>
    </div>
    <div class="sum_button_box">
      <button type="object" name="action_view_opportunities" string="Opportunities"/>
    </div>
    <group>
      <group string="Lead">
        <field name="partner_id"/>
        <field name="email" widget="email"/>
        <field name="phone" widget="phone"/>
      </group>
      <group string="Assignment">
        <field name="user_id"/>
        <field name="priority" widget="priority"/>
      </group>
    </group>
    <notebook>
      <page string="Internal notes">
        <field name="description" widget="text"/>
      </page>
    </notebook>
  </sheet>
  <chatter/>
</view>

Form layout CSS classes

SWC behaviour: Record toolbar (Edit/Save/Cancel/New/Duplicate/Delete), field widgets via registry, optional ChatterPanel when is present. Object buttons toast RPC errors; validation stays inline. Wizards that return {open} open a form dialog; {close} dismisses it without an extra success toast.

Kanban

<view id="view_crm_lead_kanban" model="crm.lead" type="kanban"
      default_group_by="stage_id" records_draggable="1">
  <field name="name"/>
  <field name="partner_id"/>
  <field name="priority" widget="priority"/>
  <field name="user_id" widget="many2one"/>
</view>

SWC behaviour: Toolbar with New + search (?q=), grouped columns from server arch.kanban.columns, card click opens form. Quick-create merges workspace defaults into rpc.create. Drag-move errors toast; successful moves stay silent.

Pivot

<view id="view_sale_order_pivot" model="sale.order" type="pivot">
  <field name="partner_id" type="row"/>
  <field name="date_order" type="col"/>
  <field name="amount_total" type="measure"/>
</view>

Read-only HTML table. Aggregates up to 500 rows from action domain.

Graph

Same field roles as pivot (type="row|col|measure" on fields). SWC GraphView calls read_group RPC and renders a bar chart (v1).

Calendar

List-style arch with date/datetime fields. SWC buckets records by date for a month grid (v1).

Stub views

gantt, map, and cohort register in SWC but render placeholder UI. Do not rely on them in production modules yet.

Report toolbar

On list, form, and kanban views:

<view model="sale.order" type="list" report_download="csv,pdf" bulk_upload="1">

Or nested:

<report download="csv,pdf" upload="1"/>

Enables Export CSV/PDF and Import CSV in the SWC toolbar.
