Here's how you can set up Automated Actions in Odoo to automatically run a Python method when a record is created. This involves defining both a server action and an automated action in XML, along with the corresponding Python method in your model. Automated Actions allow you to run server actions (Python methods) when a record is created, updated, or meets specific conditions — without needing custom code in the model itself. XML code - Define Server Action + Automation Process Example Record code records.auto_process() Auto Process on Creation on_create code Python code - Define Method in the Model from odoo import api, fields, models class ExampleModel(models.Model): _name = 'example.model' _description = 'Example Model' name = fields.Char(string='Name') status = fields.Selection([ ('new', 'New'), ('processed', 'Processed') ], default='new') def auto_process(self): """ This method is called by the automated action on record creation. """ for record in self: record.status = 'processed'
