In my case, I need to allow the users to duplicate so, they can prevent typing the City, Province, Country, and Other extra information. But I have to restrict saving the same lead name twice.

I already used Automated Actions to prevent duplication but it's not letting to duplicate leads.


The code I used in Automated Action is:

existing_name = env['crm.lead'].search([('id', '!=', record.id), ('name', '=', record.name)])
if existing_name:
         raise UserError(record.name + ' already exists!')


Is there are any ways to allow the duplication but while saving it has to show a different name or else the warning message has to pop up.


Thanks in advance.

You can do this way


@api.constrains('name')
def _check_something(self):
    existing_name = self.env['crm.lead'].search([('id', '!=', self.id), ('name', '=', self.name)])
    if existing_name:
        raise UserError("%s already exists!" % self.name)
