Allow Entity Based Generation

[grazzianos]

Hello @cedric-anne. In this pull, I've modified some points of code to allow Entity Based Inventory generation. Now the plugin is useful to my company and I think with this modifications could be useful to the project and habitual users. If you can evaluate them I'll be thankfull.

This may be a good idea, but problem is it will change the behaviour for everyone, and many people do not want this.

IMHO, something similar than an entity configuration should be added to be able to control this behaviour. For instance, user may want to inherit indexes from parent entity (the current behaviour), while other may want to use different indexes for each entities (your proposal).

Interesting. But, one option could be add a field to activate or deactivate the heritance for the subentities. Do you agree? This way, both options could be utilized for everyone (a solution that will suit everyone). What do you think about this? Em qui., 16 de jun. de 2022 às 05:37, Cédric Anne ***@***.***> escreveu:

Hi,

Indeed, if we had an option "Use counters specific to each entity" in the plugin configuration (with a default value to false), it could permit to integrate your feature without changing the existing behaviour on existing installations.
