Ability to Set Form as Default New Button

I get that he doesn’t want to use ‘database view’ (for whatever reason) but I don’t understand what this has to do with how a form works.
There are loads of places where you can create an entity without using the db view, so I would say that db view is ‘avoidable’ irrespective of what you do with forms. but nevermind. :person_shrugging:

From his and your posts, is it correctly understood that you want to limit creation of an entity to always being achieved via a form?
And is this basically a way of achieving ‘required fields’ on entity creation?

We don’t currently have a nice way of making fields mandatory in all places where entity creation can occur, but I can see some other related topics:

It is possible that the solution to the ‘required fields’ problem might be enforcing specific form view usage, but there might be other ways it could be solved.
