i need to create new doc when button pressed

Seems like the ajax needs to have this args:

{
    ....
    data: JSON.stringify({data: { doctype: "", some_fieldname: "", ... }}),
    ....

}

There should not be doclist as a variable. Basically whatever is in the data dict is updated into the doc’s dict.
