Your ID: if it's a new object, you can't.
Another field in the model: if it's calculated instead of database-
provided, sure. I use UUIDs for this:
def get_uuid():
import uuid
return str(uuid.uuid4())
class UploadedFileModel(models.Model):
physical_file = FileField(verbose_name='Physical File',
max_length=200, upload_to=get_upload_path)
uuid = models.CharField(max_length=36, default=get_uuid,
editable=False)
