I am trying to generate purchase order from manufacturing order.I have created many2many field for getting multiple products.I want to send multiple product ids to my custom function.I am able to send 1 value but sending more than one gives error as Expected singleton: product.template(4, 3).
from openerp import models,fields,api
class generate_purchase_order(models.Model):
_name = 'mrp_to_purchase_order'
product_id = fields.Many2many('product.template',string='Products',required=True)
#api.multi
def generate_purchase_order2(self):
for wizard in self:
mrp_obj = self.env['mrp.production']
mrp_obj.generate_purchase_order(wizard.product_id.id) #function call
return { 'type': 'ir.actions.act_window_close'}
mrp_custom.py,
from openerp import models,api
class mrp_production(models.Model):
_inherit = 'mrp.production'
#api.multi
def generate_purchase_order(self,product_id):
purchase_line_obj = self.env['purchase.order.line']
context = self._context
for order in self.browse(context['active_ids']):
for line in order.bom_id.bom_line_ids:
if line.product_id.id != product_id:#problem line
continue
#rest of code

Answer 1

singleton: product.template(4, 3)
This error means that code is expecting single record not recordset, so you must change code to allow recordset using or make ensureone with try-catch and avoid errors. Thats general information.
Now if you want to get multiple records from many2many its not problem at all, you must pass this many2many object only and then work with it.
After getting many2many object to work with every record from this recordset you must use for record in recordset:
Also wizard.product_id.id this is error!!! product_id is many2many so you must pass product_id or if you want to browse by yourself you must pass product_id.ids
