I'm not sure what to suggest.  It seems you are using the reload
function since you mention it.

In [26]: import resv_saledetails as rsd

In [27]: reload(rsd)
Out[27]: <module 'resv_saledetails' from
'/home/lkvam/vpark/purchase/resv_saledetails.pyc'>

In [28]: !touch resv_saledetails.py

In [29]: reload(rsd)
Out[29]: <module 'resv_saledetails' from
'/home/lkvam/vpark/purchase/resv_saledetails.py'>

You can see that the second reload (#29) loaded from the source file.

What goes wrong for you when you use reload?
