How to save a result of multiplication

[jose angel encinas ramos]

Hi everyone i build a web application in Django 3.1.7 and i try to do the next opeation(multiplication).

in my models a have:

class Articles(models.Model):

     quantity = models.PositiveIntegerField()

    cost_buy = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=2)

    total_todo = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=3)

@property

def total_valores(self):

     return (self.cost_buy*self.quantity)

def saveit(self):

    self.total_todo = self.total_valores

    super (Articles, self).save()

__________________________________________________________

so, I was tried with this functions , but it's doesn't save anything

would you give me some recomendations.

Thank you very much in advance and I remain at your service regards

I think you have used the wrong name - "saveit" instead of "save" - also have a look at the example in the docs:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/topics/db/models/#overriding-predefined-model-methods

and see which parameters are needed for it.

 I'm according with Derek, but I saw you have a mix of languages and method, spanish and english, I'm speak spanish too, but as a best practice and prevent mix langagues try to use english, you know is like a standard or best practice in latin America
