+Custom manager methods
+----------------------
+
+Sometimes you need a factory to call a specific manager method other then the
+default :meth:`Model.objects.create() <django.db.models.query.QuerySet.create>` method:

+.. code-block:: python
+
+   class UserFactory(factory.DjangoModelFactory):
+       FACTORY_FOR = UserenaSignup
+       username = "l7d8s"

+       password = "my_password"
