FAQ
does it accept 'all zeros' (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000) as a UUID value ?
It is used when the entity type is unique to match between multiple instance without the need to manually align the uuid before.
Is the same UUID value allowed to save for "Cart" ,"Currency" , "open days", "Online help" entities ?
The uuid must be unique per entity type, so it's ok if two different entity type have the same uuid.
