Summary	0046168: Entity Replicator copy configs and others from 1 environment to another
Description	Entity Replicator copy configs and others from 1 environment to another
Steps To Reproduce	WHAT IS THIS? * An utility in the Openbravo backoffice that allows to copy a record from any window or subtab from 1 environment to another When you select a tab, the subtabs info is also replicated * Replication means: create if uuid does not exist already, update if uuid exists already * Simple button in backoffice able to run for 1 or several records selected in any backoffice window or subtab: in a popup, you select in which environments or environments you want to copy too * But might be also an more general utility that can be talked by Process Request or external processes via API CONFIGURATION * Only need to enter the list of environments Name / URL that you want to be able to select in the popup * For sure, user executing this utility must have the same rights / password (or maybe there could be an input in the popup to enter the password of the target environment) WHY USEFUL? * Copying Promotions definitions or OTF Rules configurations done in TEST: once validated in TEST, easily replicated in PROD and TRAINING without having to create them again, reducing manual errors * Same for Touchpoint Types and their Payment Methods, or a complete configuration of a 1st store and terminal: helpful for Services and CSU * Even copying complex entities between PRODUCTION environments like PROD <> PRODUNIT and being able to do cross store returns between stores in different PRODUCTION environments
Proposed Solution	* This tool will become some kind of a MUST for properly and efficiently managing big customers using several environments (PRE PROD / PROD UNIT / PROD) * It is not trivial regarding uuids, since in many cases, for instance integrations of products in different systems, same product will have different UUID in M_PRODUCT_ID in TEST VS PROD, for instance * We should be able to make it very user friendly of selecting one or many records in backoffice window * Or we could define "Entities": for instance, an entity could be a whole new country configuration with its stores and touchpoint types and touchpoints (and all the required related entities sequence numbers, payment methods, etc...) * Behind the scenes, the infrastructure of exporting/importing datasets could be re-used for that
