Description
This PR adds a line to save new objects after related objects are created. This allows use of Django's
post_save
signal to perform operations that depend on related objects.Take our use case as an example: We want to use some custom logic to determine a bill's last action date. This logic depends on two types of related objects, bill actions and event related entities. The change in this PR allows us to query related objects after
Event
andBill
save in order to determine the appropriate last action date.As ever, thanks for your work!
