Hi,

It is possible. According to the following ex. you can make the dynamic selection values.

Field as like below.

'extension': fields.selection(_extension_get, 'Document Type', required=True, size=4),

Function is as like below.

def _extension_get(self, cr, uid, context=None):
cr.execute('select code,name from document_directory_content_type where active')
res = cr.fetchall()
return res

Note : This is available on the document module.
