技术咨询：Odoo-10版本中res.partner的具体位置在哪里？

Hey there! Let's break down where you can find res.partner in Odoo 10, both in the codebase and the user interface:

In Odoo 10's source code, the res.partner model and its related files live in the base module (the core module that powers Odoo's foundational features):

• Core model definition: odoo/addons/base/res/res_partner.py
  This is where the model's fields, methods, and core business logic are defined.
• UI view configurations: odoo/addons/base/res/res_partner_views.xml
  You'll find all the form, list, search, and kanban views for res.partner here.
• Default data records: odoo/addons/base/res/res_partner_data.xml
  This file includes initial default data like country records, default company info, and other base partner entries.

If you're looking to access res.partner records through the Odoo 10 web interface:

• Direct entry: Go to the Contacts menu (labeled "联系人" in Chinese interfaces). Every record you see here is an instance of res.partner.
• Indirect access via related modules: Many other modules tie into res.partner. For example:
  • In the Sales module, the "Customers" menu pulls res.partner records marked as customers (via the customer boolean field).
  • In the Purchases module, "Suppliers" are res.partner records marked as suppliers (via the supplier boolean field). You can navigate to full partner profiles from these related menus too.

A quick tip: If you're building a custom module and want to extend res.partner, you don't need to modify the base module files—just inherit the model in your own module's code!
