I am trying to view the record made by using .copy(values) method. In a broader sense, I am trying to implement version control on my products.
Example: Product 01v1 -> Product 01v2
def do_product_revision(self):
for cur_rec in self:
## Create a new version to work on, and auto generate name
# Generate new version number
ver_no = cur_rec.ver_no + 1
# Update the product name P1-v01 to P1-v02, and version number from 1 -> 2
vals = {
'name': cur_rec.name.split("-")[0] + '-v%01d'%(ver_no),
'ver_no': ver_no,
}
# Copy old record, but with new name and version number into new_record.
new_record = cur_rec.copy(default=vals) ## How to open view of this record?!
I would like to know how I would open a (form) view of this new_record. How do I refer to it in the view.xml? How does my .xml know what id this brand new copy has?
