I don't think that you can use onSaveNew() for this because it's called after the actual save to the db: """ onSaveNew(self) Hook method called after successfully saving a new record. "" Try to put it into the beforeSave() hook of your bizobj. I often do this kind of work in the onHit of the forms save button. Of cause it depends on where and how Form.save() gets called. Did you think about using database triggers for this? Sounds like a perfect case for an after insert trigger.
