Updating The List in FE

Support Developer
1

I have a scenario where I can copy one record to other existing records as below:

    @classmethod
    def __setup__(cls):
        cls.month_of_billing.selection = cls._month_get()
        cls.year_of_billing.selection = cls._year_get()
        super(SOInternalRecord, cls).__setup__()
        cls._buttons.update({
            'copy_quot': {
                'invisible': And(
                        Eval('quot_quantity', None) == None,
                        Eval('fc_quot_quantity', None) == None,
                    ),
            },
        })

    @classmethod
    @ModelView.button
    def copy_quot(cls, object):
        record = object[0]
        scenario = record.scenario
        sales_order = record.sales_order
        if sales_order and sales_order.id:
            SOInternalRecord = Pool().get('afx.sales.order.internal.record')
            if SOInternalRecord:
                records = SOInternalRecord.search([
                    ('sales_order', '=', record.sales_order.id),
                    ('id', '>', record.id)
                ])
                if len(records) > 0:
                    for rec in records:
                        if scenario == 'LCLC' or scenario == 'LCFC':
                            rec.quot_quantity = record.quot_quantity
                            rec.quot_unit_price = record.quot_unit_price
                            rec.quot_sst = record.quot_sst
                        elif scenario == 'FCFC' or scenario == 'FCLC':
                            rec.fc_quot_quantity = record.fc_quot_quantity
                            rec.fc_quot_unit_price = record.fc_quot_unit_price
                            rec.fc_quot_sst = record.fc_quot_sst  
                        rec.save()

The button is located on each row in the list as below:

I only have one problem with this approach, which is when the copying finished, the List in frontend is not refreshing, and I have manually refresh the browser. This is very inconvenient for users.

I want to be able to behave as we update the child records using parent’s SAVE button as below:

Having the button returns reload would have worked but it does not if it is done in a view with a parent.

I think that you should reconsider using One2Many if you need such manipulation or at least use a dedicated window for the list of records being copied.
