Hi,


I'd like to use the create() method to create objects with a specific ID in database like :

self.env['res.partner'].create({'id': 450, 'name': 'TEST'})

But, the ID keeps going to increment normally : 1, 2, 3, etc. and doesn't be 450  as I want.

I think it's because there is DEFAULT in database : nextval('res_partner_id_seq'::regclass) but even if I remove it, it still increments as a simple ID.


I don't want to use an SQL request like UPDATE because, in my code, there are SQL errors like 'ID already exists'. It's not possible to process like that.


If anyone can help me.


Thank you so much.

Regards.

You should use a different field.

ID is a field maintained by Odoo and not designed to be updatable.

Thanks for your answer ! But I ain't sure I understand the purpose of magic columns and how to use 'em. May you explain me better please? :)

Magic Columns are for Odoo. You need to make your own columns if you want to create with a specific ID. Make your own column and put your information in there. Odoo needs the Magic Columns and you are not supposed to interfere with them.

Well, you can use this 

```

SELECT setval('public."table_name_id_seq"',
(SELECT MAX(id) FROM public.table_name)
);

```
