It looks like your problem is that you have a ForeignKey pointing both
ways... This is unnecessary. You only need one ForeignKey, pointing from the
pointing from the 'child' to the 'parent'... I would guess from your
snippet, that one employee can have many contracts and assignments so you
need to delete these 2 lines:
employee_contract = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeContract')
employee_assignment = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeAssignment')
Django ORM will add two properties to your model which will return a query
set of all of an individual Employee's contracts or assignments. These
properties (they're actually descriptors) will be called something like
employeecontract_set, if you want to change this name put:
employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee, related_name='contracts')
or whatever you want to call the relationship... now you'll be able to do:
>>> emp = Employee.objects.get(<lookup_parameters>)
>>> emp.contracts.all()
... [<EmployeeContract: ....>...... ]
Hope this explains it OK.
