are putting those types of relations on a subclass of the parent model, you
**must** specify the :attr:`~django.db.models.ForeignKey.related_name`
attribute on each such field. If you forget, Django will raise a validation
error.
For example, using the above ``Place`` class again, let's create another
subclass with a :class:`~django.db.models.ManyToManyField`::
class Supplier(Place):
# Must specify related_name on all relations.
customers = models.ManyToManyField(Restaurant, related_name='provider')
customers = models.ManyToManyField(Place)
This results in the error::
Reverse query name for 'Supplier.customers' clashes with reverse query
name for 'Supplier.place_ptr'.
HINT: Add or change a related_name argument to the definition for
'Supplier.customers' or 'Supplier.place_ptr'.
Adding ``related_name`` to the ``customers`` field as follows would resolve the
error: ``models.ManyToManyField(Place, related_name='provider')``.
