I created a model for mentioning Email Group (x_egroup) and used that in a many2many field (x_group) in the Employee form (hr.employee)... When I mention the Email groups in the employee form, the employee names should be visible in the Email Group form....

Hi,

If you just need to see the selected employee in the email groups model, in the email groups form view, what you can do is that, add a many2many field with co model as hr.employee as follows:

Assuming the added many2many field in the hr.employee model is as follows,

x_group = fields.Many2many('x_egroup', 'relation_table_name', 'rel_1', 'rel_2', string='Email Group')

Then add an another many2many in the model x_egroup model as follows,

employee_ids = fields.Many2many('hr.employee', 'relation_table_name', 'rel_2', 'rel_1', string='Employees')

Just swap the rel_1 and rel_2, this will work for you.

Hi,

You didn’t mention the Odoo version. If you are using Odoo studio, it may not work.
Add a One2many field employee_ids related to hr.employee in your custom model.
Then you can write an onchange function for the field x_group  in hr.employee model to add employees into the field employee_ids.

Here you can understand about onchange method:
