✅

In settings.py
Add myapp in INSTALLED_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    'myapp',
]

I User model add app_label = ‘myapp’ like

class User(AbstractBaseUser):
    id = models.CharField(max_length=15, null=False, blank=False, primary_key=True, unique=True)

    USERNAME_FIELD = "id"

    class Meta:
        app_label = 'myapp'

If you want to move the model in a separate file. The directory structure should like

myapp
   models
       __init__.py
       user.py

Put User model code in user.py
Then import User model in __init__.py

from myapp.models.user import User
__all__ = ["User"]
