Error creating invoice from custom module (Odoo 13) - odoo-13

Question

I am trying to create an invoice from a custom object but I am getting errors from on validation .When I post, i get the following error: "
ValueError: Wrong value for account.move.line_ids: {'display_type': 'line_section', 'name': 'Phone Bill', 'product_id': 11783, 'product_uom_id': 19, 'current_reading': 66.0, 'current_date': datetime.date(2020, 11, 3), 'quantity': 17.0, 'price_unit': 565.0, 'account_id': 19, 'debit': 9605.0, 'credit': 0.0}
current_date and current_reading are custom fields i created. I am aware that Odoo automatically creates values for line_ids from invoice_line_ids if line_ids is not provided, so I am really stuck about this error.
Here's my code for creating the invoice:
class ReadingCorrection(models.TransientModel):
_name = 'reading.upload.wizard'
_description = 'Validate reading uploads'
def validate_entry(self):
active_ids = self._context.get('active_ids', []) or []
company = self.env.user.company_id
journal = self.env['account.move'].with_context(force_company=company.id, type='out_invoice')._get_default_journal()
for reads in self.env['reading.upload'].browse(active_ids):
if reads.reading >= reads.previous_reading: # and reads.state == 'draft':
account = reads.product_id.product_tmpl_id._get_product_accounts()['income']
if not account:
raise UserError(_('No account defined for product "%s".') % reads.product_id.name)
invoice = {
'type': 'out_invoice',
'invoice_date':reads.read_date,
'narration': reads.remark,
'invoice_user_id': reads.current_user.id,
'partner_id': reads.meter_id.customer_id.id,
'journal_id': 1,#journal.id,
'currency_id': reads.meter_id.customer_id.currency_id.id,
'doc_type': 'bill',
'invoice_line_ids':[(0,0, {
'name': reads.product_id.name,
'product_id': reads.product_id.id,
'product_uom_id': reads.product_id.uom_id.id,
'current_reading': reads.reading,
'previous_reading': reads.previous_reading,
'current_date': reads.read_date,
'quantity': reads.reading - reads.previous_reading,
'price_unit': reads.product_id.product_tmpl_id.lst_price,
'account_id': account.id,
})]
}
moves = self.env['account.move'].with_context(default_type='out_invoice').create(invoice)
#invoice = self.env['account.move'].sudo().create(invoice)
reads.write({'state':'uploaded'})
Any help given will be appreciated. Thanks

If you want to create invoices, in the lines you should not use the debit and credit fields since these are calculated, as it is a product line, you should not use display_type, since the line_section type is treated as an annotation and not as a price calculation line.
In the invoice data, when linking the lines 'invoice_line_ids': inv_line_ids an instruction must be specified to process the lines in your case it would be as follows 'invoice_line_ids': (0, 0, inv_line_ids) for greater information visit this page.
