After creating a new model, the next step is to add fields to it. Odoo supports all the basic data types expected, such as text strings, integers, floating point numbers, Booleans, dates, date-times, and image/binary data.
Some field names are special, either because they are reserved by the ORM for special purposes, or because some built-in features make use of some default field names.
Let's explore the several types of field available in Odoo.
