This module customizes the datetime picker widget and allows to define a default time to be applied in case the user selects only a Date.
For example, if a user wants to define a commitment date without having to specify the time on that date, setting the default time value on the field in the Form view allows to ensure the commitment date will be set to this time instead of the time when the page was loaded by the browser.
Table of contents
Static Default Time You can define the default time as follows for a static value For widget="datetime":
<field name="your_datetime_field" widget="datetime" options="{'defaultTime': {'hour': 8, 'minute': 30, 'second': 15 }}"/>
For widget="daterange":
<field name="your_start_datetime_field" widget="datetime" options="{'end_date_field': 'your_end_datetime_field', 'defaultStartTime': {'hour': 2, 'minute': 22, 'second': 22,}, 'defaultEndTime': {'hour': 3, 'minute': 33, 'second': 33,}}"/>
Dynamic Default Time Otherwise you can also use a JSON field to make it dynamic through a compute function, and reference this field in the view:
start_time = field.Json(compute="_compute_start_time") def _compute_start_time(self): for rec in self: rec.start_time = {'hour': 8, 'minute': 30, 'second': 15 }
<field name="start_time" invisible="1" /> <field name="your_datetime_field" options="{'defaultTime': 'start_time'}"/>
