Replying to [comment:3 3point2]:
> * The inline invoice entries are now saved. At this point, it's no
longer possible to hook into the save process to calculate the invoice's
total. The only workaround would be to have each invoice entry update its
parent invoice's total when it is saved, which will cause a lot of
unnecessary save() calls on the invoice (one for each entry).
No, you can override the !ModelAdmin's save_formset (see:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.save_formset)
and add whatever code you like after all the inline models have been
saved.
>
> My post_save hook allows the user to call a function *after* the inlines
have been saved. This allows the total to be calculated using
invoice.invoiceentry_set.all()
So does the existing capability of overriding save_formset. I don't see
why another way is needed.
