Let’s demonstrate with an example:
Suppose we have the records from the ‘sale.order’ model and we need
to group the record set with the ‘Customer’ field(partner_id).
orders = self.env['sale.order'].search([]) # Fetch all sale orders
grouped_orders = orders.grouped('partner_id')
Here, the variable ‘orders’ contains all the sale orders created so far.
Then, the variable ‘grouped_orders’ contains the grouped data based
on the partner_id field.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/howtousegroupedmethodinodoo18-250620052835-0281e7a0/85/How-to-use-grouped-method-in-Odoo-18-Odoo-Slides-4-320.jpg)

- 1. How to use grouped() method in Odoo 18 Enterprise
- 2. Enterprise Introduction The grouped() method in Odoo is used to group records in a recordset based on the values of a specific field or set of fields. It simplifies the process of grouping records and iterating over the resulting groups, which is especially useful for operations like reporting, aggregations, or categorizing records. Let’s discuss the various details of grouped() in Odoo 18 in the coming slides.
- 3. Enterprise Odoo uses grouped() method with the syntax Model.grouped(key) Here, key specifies the field(s) to group by.’ The method returns a dictionary where: ● Keys are the values of the grouping field(s). ● Values are recordsets of the grouped records.

Then, the variable ‘grouped_orders’ contains the grouped data based on the partner_id field.
- 5. Enterprise grouped() method can be used when ● When you need to categorize or group records based on field values. ● For performing operations on grouped records, like reporting or aggregations. ● To simplify and clean up grouping logic in your code. Always keep in mind that, the fields used in grouped() must be relational fields or stored fields, as the grouping relies on ORM lookups. The grouped() method does not support grouping by computed fields unless they are stored in the database.
