I had the same problem.

I dug in the discussion and was redirected to the hooks part of the documentation. But in my opinion, sometimes filament documentation is too light to be really helpful.

In your case, you have to override some methods.
I had a Product Model with a slug attribute (generated from the name attribute) for which I needed to create a CRUD, so I created a resource (php artisan make:filament-resource Product).

Inside my app/Filament/Resources/ProductResource/Pages/CreatePorudct.php file, I added the following method:

...

use Illuminate\Support\Str;

class CreateProduct extends CreateRecord
{

...

    public function updatedRecordName($value)
    {
        $slug = Str::slug($value);
        $this->record['sku'] = $slug;
    }

I didn't need to make this sku attribute editable, I only needed to generate this slug on creation.
But if you need this edition, you'll have to add this method in EditYourModel php page.

I hope it would help !
(This method is not documented, I would really love to find such a tip & trick in the documentation)
