I have the Customer entity and two one-to-many relations CustomerPhone and CustomerAddress.

The Customer entity has addPhone/removePhone and addAddress/removeAddress “adders”.

CustomerType collections options has ‘by_reference’ => false for both collections.

Entity functions addPhone/removePhone and addAddress/removeAddress not called after form submitted, so CustomerPhone and CustomerAddress have no parent id after persist.

Why could addPhone/removePhone and addAddress/removeAddress not called on form submit?

UPD 1.

After @Baig suggestion now I have addPhone/removePhone “adders” called, but addAddress/removeAddress not. Can’t get why because they are identical.

 # TestCustomerBundle/Entity/Customer.php

 /**
 * @var string
 *
 * @ORMOneToMany(targetEntity="CustomerPhone", mappedBy="customerId", cascade={"persist"}, orphanRemoval=true)
 */
private $phone;

/**
 * @var string
 *
 * @ORMOneToMany(targetEntity="CustomerAddress", mappedBy="customerId", cascade={"persist"}, orphanRemoval=true)
 */
private $address;

Same file “adders”

# TestCustomerBundle/Entity/Customer.php
/**
 * Add customer phone.
 *
 * @param Phone $phone
 */
public function addPhone(CustomerPhone $phone) {
    $phone->setCustomerId($this);
    $this->phone->add($phone);

    return $this;
}

/**
 * Remove customer phone.
 *
 * @param Phone $phone customer phone
 */
public function removePhone(CustomerPhone $phone) {
    $this->phone->remove($phone);
}
/**
 * Add customer address.
 *
 * @param Address $address
 */
public function addAddress(CustomerAddress $address) {
    $address->setCustomerId($this);
    $this->address->add($address);

    return $this;
}

/**
 * Remove customer address.
 *
 * @param Address $address customer address
 */
public function removeAddress(CustomerAddress $address) {
    $this->address->remove($address);
}

Relations:

# TestCustomerBundle/Entity/CustomerPhone.php
/**
 * @ORMManyToOne(targetEntity="Customer", inversedBy="phone")
 * @ORMJoinColumn(name="customer_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 **/
private $customerId;

#TestCustomerBundle/Entity/CustomerAddress.php
/**
 * @ORMManyToOne(targetEntity="Customer", inversedBy="address")
 * @ORMJoinColumn(name="customer_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 **/
private $customerId;

CustomerType form:

public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
    $builder
        ->add('name')
        ->add('phone', 'collection', array(
            'type' => new CustomerPhoneType(),
            'allow_add' => true,
            'allow_delete' => true,
            'by_reference' => false,
            'options' => array('label' => false)
        ))
        ->add('address', 'collection', array(
            'type' => new CustomerAddressType(),
            'allow_add' => true,
            'allow_delete' => true,
            'by_reference' => false,
            'options' => array('label' => false)
        ))
        ->add('submit', 'submit')
    ;
}

Controller.

# TestCustomerBundle/Controller/DefaultController.php

public function newAction(Request $request)
    {
        $customer = new Customer();
        // Create form.
        $form = $this->createForm(new CustomerType(), $customer);
        // Handle form to store customer obect with doctrine.
        if ($request->getMethod() == 'POST')
        {
            $form->bind($request);
            if ($form->isValid())
            {
                /*$em = $this->get('doctrine')->getEntityManager();
                $em->persist($customer);
                $em->flush();*/
                $request->getSession()->getFlashBag()->add('success', 'New customer added');
            }
        }
        // Display form.
        return $this->render('DeliveryCrmBundle:Default:customer_form.html.twig', array(
            'form' => $form->createView()
        ));
    }

UPD 2.
Test if addAddress called.

/**
     * Add customer address.
     *
     * @param Address $address
     */
    public function addAddress(Address $address) {
        jkkh; // Test for error if method called. Nothing throws.
        $address->setCustomerId($this);
        $this->address->add($address);        
    }
