Hi, Yazeed


There have two ways to override create(ORM functions).

  • Call inherited function as well as other which are inherit before,

    • class CustomModel(models.Model):
       _inherit = "custom.model"

       @api.model
       def create(self, vals):
           return super(CustomModel, self).create(vals)

    • It will call current method as well as all the create methods which are inherited before.

  • Call self and Models.model definition,

    • class CustomModel(models.Model):
         _inherit = "custom.model"

       @api.model
       def create(self, vals):
            ## Definition
            return super(models.Model, self).create(vals)
       Here only this function and create function of "model.Model" will call

Dear Yazeed,

class ModelModel1(models.Model):

    _name = "table.table"

    _description = "Test"

    @api.multi

    def test_method(self):

        {fuction definition}

    @api.model

    def create(self, vals):

    vals['number'] = self.env['ir.sequence'].next_by_code('annual.achievement.request.seq')

    val['field1'] = 'name'

    val['field2'] = 'age'

    rec = super(ModelModel1, self).create(vals)

    rec.test_method()

    return rec

As like you can change any value or add value to the create function. also, you can call external methods also.
