So I was wondering how do I need to update relationship inside relationship values. For example I have first relationship:

class Code {
  public function item()
  {
     return $this->hasOne(UserItem::class, 'code_id')
  }
}

And then there is other nested relationship inside UserItem::class:

class UserItem {
  public function serials()
  {
     return $this->hasMany(ItemSerial::class, 'user_item_id', 'id');
  }
}

And then I recieve request values:

'item_serials' =>
  array (
    0 => 'test1',
    1 => 'test2'
  ),

And I need to updateOrCreate values of serials relationship. Something like this:

   foreach ($data['item_serials'] as $serial) {
                $code->item->serials->updateOrCreate([
                    'serial' => $serial
                ]);
    }

But this obviously doesn't work.

update or create method are static eloquent methods and for useing static methods from relationship you most use the relation method not property,so change your code to:

foreach ($data['item_serials'] as $serial) {
                $code->item->serials()->updateOrCreate([
                    'serial' => $serial
                ]);
    }
