In Odoo, views define the way by which the models/objects displayed to user-end. Views are of several types, each view represents a mode of visualization. They make the modules more user-friendly and can vary according to the need. In Odoo we use several types of views such as tree, form, search, calendar, graph, pivot, Kanab etc. As the name suggests each kind of views are different, ‘tree’ view provides the list view of objects, ‘Form’ view displays a single object, ‘Search’ view helps to filter the objects etc..
