I have many2many field:

supply_ids = fields.Many2many(comodel_name='supply.conditions',
                                          relation='purchase_supply_rel',
                                          column1='purchase_requests_id', column2='supply_conditions_id',
                                          string='Supply Conditions')

and piece of xml

 <page string="Order">
        <field name="supply_ids"/>
 </page>

I have only one supply.conditions form view but I want create another one (with less fields) and show it on supply_ids field click:

"Add object" -> "Create"

I don't know what method is called on "Add object" click or how can I select specific form view on "Add object" -> "Create" button..

Create a second form view with like

<record id="view_supply_conditions_form2" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name="name">...</field>
    <field name="model">supply.conditions</field>
    <field name="priority">17</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <!-- and so on -->
    </field>
</record>

And then call it on your field with context:

<page string="Order">
    <field name="supply_ids"
        context="{'form_view_ref':'my_module.view_supply_conditions_form2'}"/>
</page>

Edit:

The corresponding context keys for list and search views are tree_view_ref and search_view_ref.

I found a solution, added context to field:

 <page string="Order">
        <field name="supply_ids" context="{'form_view_ref':'my_app_name.view_supply_conditions_form'}"/>/>
 </page>
