[V14] button action

Question

Hi, im trying to use a button function in odoo 14.0 and I don't know how it works. I want a button with this function: click the botton and some field is filled in, like an autocomplete.

Hi,
You can define a button of type object and using the orm methods, you can write values into the field.

Adding button to the view:
<button name="action_update" type="object" string="click me"/>

Now define the function in corresponding model,
def action_update(self):
self.field_1 ='clicked'

Thanks
