Take a look at this below code, this is one possible solution, not the best.
from odoo import models, fields, api
from odoo.exceptions import ValidationError
class HrEmployee(models.Model):
_inherit = 'hr.employee'
prod_details_ids = fields.One2many(
string=u'Product details',
comodel_name='prod.details',
inverse_name='employee_id',
)
class ProdDetails(models.Model):
_name = 'prod.details'
employee_id = fields.Many2one(
string=u'Employee',
comodel_name='hr.employee',
)
date = fields.Date(
string=u'Date',
default=fields.Date.context_today,
)
bonus_id = fields.Many2one(
string=u'Bonus',
comodel_name='res.partner', # just an example
)
And then you need to add the constrains:
Solution 1
_sql_constraints = [
('bonus_unique', 'unique(employee_id, date, bonus_id)',
_('Date + Bonus cannot be repeated in one employee!')),
]
Solution 2
@api.one
@api.constrains('date', 'bonus_id')
def _check_unique_date(self):
# you have more freedom here if you want to check more things
rest = self.employee_id.prod_details_ids - self
for record in rest:
if record.date == self.date and record.bonus_id.id == self.bonus_id.id:
raise ValidationError("Date + Bonus already exists and violates unique field constraint")
Note: If you have date already in your database make sure that the constrains can be added with this data, because if not the constraint cannot be added to the database. This happens with the _sql_constraints
at least
