Odoo auto-fill fields when created from other form

Any idea how I can fill in some fields on the product page when I quick create this from a Sales Order. These fields are based on the Sales Order (name and customer). Do I need to pass them with context?

Thanks

Yes, it can be done with context. In your sale.order.line XML views, you have a Many2one field named product_id (it points to product.product model).

You have to specify the default value you want for each product.product field, extracting the value for the fields of the current view (sale.order.line):

<xpath expr="//field[@name='product_id']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="context">{'default_field_1': field_1, 'default_field_2': field_2}</attribute>
</xpath>

Where default_field_1 and default_field_2 are fields of the product.product model, and field_1 and field_2 are fields of sale.order.line model.

Example:

<xpath expr="//field[@name='product_id']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="context">{'default_name': name}</attribute>
</xpath>

In the above case, when you create a new product (clicking on the create option of the dropdown of the Many2one field product_id) from sale.order.line tree or form view, the product.product form would be opened with the name field automatically filled in with the name of the current sale order line.
