you can use make_autoname method for it.

Check this example,

frappe/erpnext/blob/develop/erpnext/stock/doctype/item/item.py#L44


      
          from erpnext.stock.doctype.item_default.item_default import ItemDefault
          
          

          
class DuplicateReorderRows(frappe.ValidationError):
          	pass
          
          

          
class StockExistsForTemplate(frappe.ValidationError):
          	pass
          
          

          
class InvalidBarcode(frappe.ValidationError):
          	pass
          
          

          
class DataValidationError(frappe.ValidationError):
          	pass
          
          

          
class Item(Document):
          	def onload(self):
