Add Version Attribute as a System Member of Entities for Easier Concurrency Control

0

To simplify concurrency control (such as optimistic locking or update conflict detection), I propose adding a "Version" attribute as an optional system member for entities.

Currently, developers need to implement custom logic to handle versioning and detect simultaneous updates, which increases complexity and maintenance effort. A built-in version attribute that auto-increments with each update—similar to `createdDate` or `changedBy`—would allow developers to enable it via checkbox when needed.

Standardizing this feature would reduce development time and help ensure data integrity across Mendix applications.
