Hi guys,
I have a module containing 2 models (A and B). For model A, I have a xml data file that need to be import before Odoo can do any modification I made in model B. How can I make this happen without splitting the 2 model into 2 modules ?
Update: What I meant is that the xml file to use to load data into model A and model will work on that data. And the two action mentioned happen within the same update for the module that contains A and B.
Odoo will load data file as a defined sequence on the manifest file.
__menifest__.py
......
'data': [
'/data/model_A.xml'
'/data/model_B.xml'
]
......
That's correct and easy enough, but how to use data loaded in data XML (by reference / external ID) in models ? As it seems that the models are interpreted before loading even first line from data files ...

In the end how did you resolved this ?
I have a similar situation (detailed in the link below) and I don't find any working solution for setting default value for model B field based on model A XML data (which isn't loaded yet)
I know that data files in the manifest are loaded in order, but there I have only data for model A which is needed in model B default value in a Many2one field)
