- can_create [Boolean]: Allow create new records
- can_write [Boolean]: Allow edit the linked record

## Options:

- search [Dictionary] * field: The field to use in the search process [Default is ‘id’] * oper: The operator (like, ilike, etc…) [Default is ‘=’]
- no_create: Invalidates the ‘can_create’ flag
- no_write: Invalidates the ‘can_write’ flag
- no_open: Disables open the linked record

# Usage

You need to declare the usage of the new widget as follows: `<field name="xxx" widget="many2one_simple" options="...">`

If you have a database with demo data, you can test this widget following these instructions:

1. Go to Contacts.
2. Create or edit a record.
3. Set “Industry” field (in Sales & Purchase tab).
4. Only if you set the correct industry name (“Administrative” for example), it will be defined. Otherwise, it will try to create one with that name.

## Example:

    <field name="partner_id" widget="many2one_simple" regex="^1\d*" options="{&quot;search&quot;: { &quot;field&quot;: &quot;name&quot;, &quot;oper&quot;: &quot;ilike&quot; }}"/

** Only allows search by id’s that starts with ‘1’ …
