Answer 1

That's usually a problem with Odoo opening partners on so many views. Odoo's code already knows about the new field in res.partner but the database doesn't know, until you've upgrade your app/module.

Either you have to be on the app/modules list or form view when restarting your server (with these changes you've made), so you can upgrade your app/module instantly, or you have to restart odoo with parameter -u module_to_update.

For the second solution there are some options, too. But it depends on your Odoo installation. If it's installed directly under debian/ubuntu, you can temporarly change the startscript under /etc/init.d/odoo with the mentioned parameter. You can also start a second Odoo instance with another port with that mentioned parameter.
