one2many, many2many, many2one field in openerp

In OpenERP/Odoo, we have one2many and many2many datatype field. For add, update, delete we have some trick to link with record, which are listed below.

1. (0, 0,  { values })    link to a new record that needs to be created with the given values dictionary

2. (1, ID, { values })    update the linked record with id = ID (write *values* on it)

3. (2, ID)                     remove and delete the linked record with id = ID (calls unlink on ID, that will delete the object completely, and the link to it as well)

4. (3, ID)                     cut the link to the linked record with id = ID (delete the relationship between the two objects but does not delete the target object itself)

5. (4, ID)                     link to existing record with id = ID (adds a relationship)

6. (5)                          unlink all (like using (3,ID) for all linked records)

7. (6, 0, [IDs])             replace the list of linked IDs (like using (5) then (4,ID) for each ID in the list of IDs)
