@api.onchange doesn't save changes

Hi !

I wrote an @api.onchange method (ation_afaire) that detects a change in a Datetime field and calls another method (action_confirm) of the same class which among other things changes the order status to 'sale'. Everything works fine, when I make a change in the date_realization field the order state changes to sale. The problem is that when I click on save the system doesn't pick up the change and it all goes back to the previous state !

Does anybody knows why I am being unable to save this state change ?

Thank you !

Here's the code:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from odoo import models, fields, api

class gescom_states(models.Model):

    _inherit = 'sale.order'

    date_realization= fields.Datetime(string='Date de réalisation', store=True)

@api.multi
    def action_confirm(self):
        for order in self:         
            order.state = 'sale'          
        if self.env.context.get('send_email'):
                self.force_quotation_send()
            order.order_line._action_procurement_create()
        if self.env['ir.values'].get_default('sale.config.settings', 'auto_done_setting'):
            self.action_done()          
        return True

    @api.onchange('date_realization')
    def action_afaire(self):
        super (gescom_states,self).action_confirm()

do you want to call the function action_confirm while onchange of the field 'date_realization'?

Răzvan Anastasescu

do you have all fields (that you want to be saved) on the view XML ? If not needed / visible, you have to put them invisible, and so they'll get saved

That happens because 'state' field in sale.order model is readonly (readonly=True). 

In order to force it to be written you need to use write() function.

That's correct

juan arpi

I tried that and it didn't work, what I did was in the view add an attribute force_save='1'

onchange methods work on virtual records - assignment on these records is not written to the database, just used to know which value to send back to the client.

Hello,
As Ray Carnes mentioned that onchange methods work on virtual records.
So in onchange() method doesn't contain original record in which you changing. in this method "self" contains virtual copy of the record.

so, in your case it will not confirm that record with action_confirm().

In a @api.onchange function, you have to use write() function of the model


@api.onchange('field_name')
def _function_name(self, value)
    _my_object = self.env['model.name']
    _myobject.write({'field_name' : value})

If you want to edit a model refered by a Many2one, you you directly use this field as

@api.onchange('field_name')
def _function_name(self, value)
    self._my_many_2_one_field.write({'field_name' : value})
