Module: time off

Model: hr.leave

I tried this, but shows error.

<!--Adding stop date 2 to calendar-->
    <record id="view_order_tree_inherited" model="ir.ui.view">

            <calendar js_class="time_off_calendar" string="Time Off Request" form_view_id="%(hr_holidays.hr_leave_view_form_dashboard)d" event_open_popup="true" date_start="date_from" date_stop="date_to_2" mode="month" quick_add="False" color="employee_id">

You should see the following error in the log:

Element '<calendar ...>' cannot be located in parent view

To change the calendar date_stop attribute, you need to use the position attributes . Try to replace the calendar tag with the following:

<calendar position="attributes">
    <attribute name="date_stop">date_to_2</attribute>
</calendar>
