    Add the ‘mail.thread’ model to the _inherit list in your custom model’s class definition in the models.py file<\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    from odoo import api, fields, models<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    class HospitalPatient(models.Model):<\/p>\n

        <\/span>_name = ‘hospital.patient’<\/p>\n

        <\/b><\/span><\/span>_inherit = [‘mail.thread’,’mail.activity.mixin’]<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

        <\/span>_description= ‘Hospital Management System’<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Add the ‘message_follower_ids’ and ‘message_ids’ fields to your custom model’s view definition in the views.py file. For example:<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n

      <record id=”view_hospital_patient_form” model=”ir.ui.view”><\/p>\n

                  <\/span><field name=”model”>hospital.patient.form<\/field><\/p>\n

                  <\/span><field name=”model”>hospital.patient<\/field><\/p>\n

                  <\/span><field name=”arch” type=”xml”><\/p>\n

                      <\/span><form><\/p>\n

                            <\/span><sheet><\/p>\n

                            <\/span><group><\/p>\n

                               <\/span><group><\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

                                 <\/span><field name=’name’><\/field><\/p>\n

                                 <\/span><field name=’age’><\/field><\/p>\n

                             <\/span><\/p>\n

                               <\/span><\/group><\/p>\n

                                  <\/span><group><\/p>\n

                                      <\/span><field name=’active’ invisible=”1″><\/field><\/p>\n

                                      <\/span><\/p>\n

            <\/span><\/p>\n

              <\/span><\/record><\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      Override the ‘create’ and ‘write’ methods in your custom model’s class definition to enable tracking of changes. <\/span><\/p>\n


      <\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
      from<\/span> odoo import<\/span> api, fields, models<\/div>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/span><\/p>\n

      class<\/span> HospitalPatient<\/span>(models<\/span>.Model<\/span>):<\/div>\n
      _name = ‘hospital.patient’<\/span><\/div>\n
      _inherit = [‘mail.thread’<\/span>,‘mail.activity.mixin’<\/span>]<\/div>\n
      _description= ‘Hospital Management System’<\/span><\/div>\n
      <\/div>\n
