Hello jerryzhang,

If you want to allow only one one2many record, you should use many2one.

You can create your own class and using that class in res.partner by many2one as it will allow you to insert only one record and it won't display add button in view instead it will display magnifying glass.

In case you stick to on2many, you have these 2 options:
1. Add a constraint(custom one) to block the insertion of more than one O2M records.
2. Over the xml file, set widget=many2one for the o2m field.

To hide the 'Add' button, here are the probables:
1. Program the client(GTK/Web) accordingly.
2. Access : Bare the create access of the one2many model and you will never be able to create the record.

Thank you,
