How to update a register other than the one that triggers a compute function - odoo

Question

I want to get the product binding and show it in a view (this works). If it has no binding I have to check if that product is part of a bill of materials and if it is, I have to look for the binding of the parent and show that binding (this is what doesn't work, it doesn't give error but it doesn't assign the value of the parent to the child).
class ProductProduct(models.Model):
_inherit = 'product.product'
main_endado_bind = fields.Char(
string='Main Endado Bind',
store=True,
compute='_get_endado_bind'
)
#api.multi
#api.depends('endado_bind_ids', 'bom_ids.bom_line_ids')
def _get_endado_bind(self, external_id=''):
for product in self:
if product.endado_bind_ids:
parent_external_id = product.endado_bind_ids[0].external_id
product.main_endado_bind = parent_external_id
for line_product in product.bom_ids.bom_line_ids:
line_product.product_id._get_endado_bind(external_id=parent_external_id)
elif external_id:
product.main_endado_bind = external_id
When modifying a BOM I want to assign the binding id of the parent to the new material but it is the parent that triggers the compute as it is its BOM that is modified.
If instead of the last line I use a write I get this error:
Error:

The KeyError: 79 is the id of the bom line.
Any idea? Thanks!

Here are some ideas about your error.
main_endado_bind has been declared with char data type. So it always stores char values.
According to your code, it seems parent_external_id has integer value. And you are assigning integer values to char data type fields. So it doesn't work.
To resolve this issue, we have to explicitly type cast into char. For example,
product.main_endado_bind = str(parent_external_id)
