Hi,

I am writing a timekeeping app with Django, and have some design
questions. Stripped down, I have a model somewhat like this:

class Customer(models.Model):
    Name = models.CharField(max_length=200)

class ProjectCode(models.Model):
    Customer = models.ForeignKey('Customer')
    Code = models.CharField(max_length=30)

class Hours(models.Model):
    Customer = models.ForeignKey('Customer')
    ProjectCode = models.ForeignKey('ProjectCode', blank=True)
    Date = models.DateField()
    Hours = models.FloatField()

That is, the time registration class (Hours) has both a customer, and
(optionally) a project code.

I am currently using the standard admin interface to enter/edit objects,
and it works to my expectations. However, there is one obvious problem
here: when editing an Hours instance, the ProjectCode dropdown lists
*all* project codes, not just those related to the selected customer.

Obviously, I am going to need either a wizard-like interface or an Ajax
solution to fix this. My preference here would be Ajax (to populate the
ProjectCode dropdown based on the selected Customer).

My question is twofold:

- Does the standard admin application have provisions for something like
this?

- Alternatively, is there a change in my design I can make so the admin
interface *can* cope with this?

I'd really prefer to keep using the standard admin for now, focussing on
adding functionality rather than getting the user interface the way I
want it.

Regards,
Gertjan.
