what is the major difference between inherit default_get method  with super and using default parameter in the required field, 

also I'm using default_get in in res. partner and it's not working if there is a condition before values 
here is it 

@api.model
def default_get(self, fields_list):
res = super(ataa_partner, self).default_get(fields_list)
asha = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_asha').id
kesaa = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_kesaa').id
water = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_water').id
if self.is_mostafeed:
vals = [(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 900, 'type': asha}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 150, 'type': kesaa}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 140, 'type': water})]
res.update({'outcomes': vals})

the method its not working if I set the condition on it otherwise the field is_mostafeed is already true with the context in action

The default_get method is the way Odoo collect the default values for all the fields when creating a new record to be able to edit for example in a Form view. That method will collect the default values from field definitions, per company related values and ir.defaults records to build the dict of values that you could extend by providing your own version of the default_get method and obtaining that dict of values when calling to super.

But the important thing here is that the default_get method wouldn't being calling on a recordset or a record so your condition `if self.is_mostafeed:` will always be False because self is not a recordset and also don't have a proper value for it's fields.

You could get the default value of the field is_mostafeed from the res dict returned by the super call and make your condition against that value to make it work or also put a value in the action context and check against that value using self.env.context.get('is_mostafeed', False) to make it work

*** Solution examples ***

1- Using res dict returned from super call

@api.model
def default_get(self, fields_list):
res = super(ataa_partner, self).default_get(fields_list)
asha = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_asha').id
kesaa = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_kesaa').id
water = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_water').id
if res.get('is_mostafeed', False):
vals = [(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 900, 'type': asha}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 150, 'type': kesaa}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 140, 'type': water})]
res.update({'outcomes': vals})

2- Using context

@api.model
def default_get(self, fields_list):
res = super(ataa_partner, self).default_get(fields_list)
asha = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_asha').id
kesaa = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_kesaa').id
water = self.env.ref('mf_ataa.income_water').id
if self.env.context.get('default_is_mostafeed', False):
vals = [(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 900, 'type': asha}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 150, 'type': kesaa}),
(0, 0, {'outcome_amount': 140, 'type': water})]
res.update({'outcomes': vals})

how my method can be done, i can't understand exactly your explanation

Axel Mendoza

I can't say how your method could be done because I don't have a definition about the field is_mostafeed and how you expect that the value of that field get True to apply your condition. Provide me with that info so I could give you an example

it's just a boolean field

is_mostafeed = fields.Boolean(string="مستفيد",)

and i set it as true with action conext

<field name="context">{'default_customer':1,'search_default_is_motafeed':1, 'default_is_mostafeed': True}</field>
