Update a recorde while installing a module

Question

Hello,
Is it possible to update a record by installing a module?
i mean i just want to update the record once  the module installed
here's my  function:
def _default_pos_receivable_account( self ):
for record in  self :
account_default_pos_receivable_account_id = self .env[ 'account.account' ].search([( 'code' , '=' , '772600' )],
limit = 1 )
self .write({ 'account_default_pos_receivable_account_id' : account_default_pos_receivable_account_id})
return record
but when i install it nothing happens

Hello Ali,
Yes, It is possible to update a record on module installation.
1. You can call such python functions by  pre_init_hook and update the record using database cursor
\https://www.odoo.com/documentation/master/reference/module.html
pre_init_hook  takes a cursor as its only argument, this function is executed prior to the module's installation.

2. If you wish to change any property or module data, You can also do it by creating new data record with same reference id along with module name
