Why Do I Get Data Errors When Using Odoo's ORM?

Problem: Incorrect use of Odoo's ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) can result in data inconsistencies and unexpected behavior.

Solution:
Use ORM functions like create(), write(), search(), and unlink() for database interactions instead of direct SQL queries.
Leverage Odoo’s computed fields and constraints to manage data updates properly.
Always check the Odoo ORM documentation for best practices on field computations and default values.

@api.model
def create_invoice(self, customer_id, product_id, quantity):
    customer = self.env['res.partner'].browse(customer_id)
    product = self.env['product.product'].browse(product_id)
    invoice_vals = {
        'partner_id': customer.id,
        'invoice_line_ids': [(0, 0, {
            'product_id': product.id,
            'quantity': quantity,
            'price_unit': product.list_price,
        })],
    }
    return self.env['account.move'].create(invoice_vals)
