Hi Eankomah,

You have several solutions depending upon your need:

First dr neyx de godlove's answer is the more elegant if you do not need a dedicated db field.

You just need to remove the 'get_' prefix  in get_total_price :

    @property

    def total_price(self):

        total_price = self.unit_price * self.quantity

        return total_price

(@dr neyx de godlove, thank I learned the use of property in django trying you solution)

Then if you really need a dedicated field, create it and override the save method in your model :

    total_price = models.FloatField()

    def save(self, *args, **kwargs):

        #change total_price

        # Transaction.save(update_fields['total_price'])

        self.total_price = self.unit_price * self.quantity

        super(Inventory, self).save(*args, **kwargs)

Best Regards

No. If you look at the mail header, you can see this was sent to the
django-users mailing list.

Kind regards,
