Hello, 


    To identify the issue that you have mentioned. let's update the code in 

    'action_create_custom_profile' method.

      

    def action_create_custom_profile(self):

    for employee in self:

        # Search for an existing custom record linked to this employee

        custom_record = self.env['custom.model'].search([('employee_id', '=', employee.id)], limit=1)


        # Prepare the values to be created/updated

        custom_record_vals = {

            'name': employee.name,

            'gender': employee.gender,

            'mobile': employee.mobile_phone,

            'image': employee.image_128,

            'practice_area_ids': [(6, 0, employee.practice_area_ids.ids)],  # Many2many field update

            'email': employee.work_email,

            'company_id': employee.company_id.id,  # Note: 'company_id' not 'copmany_id'

            'active': employee.active,

            # Add more fields as needed

        }


        if not custom_record:

            # Create a new custom record

            custom_record_vals['employee_id'] = employee.id  # Ensure the relationship is established

            self.env['custom.model'].create(custom_record_vals)

        else:

            # Update the existing custom record

            custom_record.write(custom_record_vals)

I Hope this information proves helpful to you.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

Use the following code to avoid creating a new record when we change the value of an existing record by ensuring the employee_id field is set in your custom model, creating a link between the two models.

def action_create_custom_profile(self):

    for employee in self:

        custom_record = self.env['custom.model'].search([('employee_id', '=', employee.id)], limit=1)


        custom_record_vals = {

            'employee_id': employee.id,  # Add this line to link the record

            'name': employee.name,

            'gender': employee.gender,

            'mobile': employee.mobile_phone,

            'image': employee.image_128,

            'practice_area_ids': [(6, 0, employee.practice_area_ids.ids)],  # Use this format for many2many fields

            'email': employee.work_email,

            'company_id': employee.company_id.id,  # Use .id for many2one fields

            'active': employee.active,

        }


        if not custom_record:

            self.env['custom.model'].create(custom_record_vals)

        else:

            custom_record.write(custom_record_vals)

    return True


Hope it helps.

Hi,
You have to add a field employee_id many2one field to hr.employee in the model "custom.model"


Then during the creation of the record pass value to this field:


'employee_id': employee_id


Thanks
