Let's start with a basic One2many relation, a class Parent and a class Child.

When I open a Parent form and try to create a new Child from the one2many popup opend by the "child_ids" form field, the parent_id field is not selected with the current open Parent from the window view ! I have to retrieve it in the parent_id selection field to re-select it.

Is there a way to do this autoselection ?

Hello SITER,


For autoselect the parent_id you have to pass parent_id in context like this,


<field name="child_ids" context="{'default_parent_id': active_id}"/>


Here active_id = current id of parent object.
