PF is a Folderish class. This is the add function (or manage_add): def addPF(self, id=None, title=None, usercontract=None): """ Create a portfolio """ if not id: id = uuidgen() p = PF(id, title, usercontract) self.Destination()._setObject(id, p) # create an account p.addAccount(id='account', valuta='EUR') p.manage_addFolder(id='KKK') return id Now I have the same type of construction for an Account class which is a SimpleItemish class : def addAccount(self, id=None, title=None, valuta=None): """ Create an user Account """ if not id: id = uuidgen() p = Account(id, title, valuta) 1: #self.Destination()._setObject(id, p) 2: self._setObject(id, p) return id When I comment in line 1 and leave out line 2, I get an Attribute Error on Destination. When line 1 is commented out and 2 goes in: Voila! I can still create Account objects in the ZMI. So what does the Destination() method do in construction of an object?
