<plugin>
    <groupId>com.sap.cloud.sdk.datamodel</groupId>
    <artifactId>odata-v4-generator-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <!-- Please use the latest version here-->
    <version>3.XX.X</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>generate-consumption</id>
            <phase>generate-sources</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>generate</goal>
            </goals>

                <compileScope>COMPILE</compileScope>
                <serviceMethodsPerEntitySet>true</serviceMethodsPerEntitySet>
                <!-- (Optional) You can add a custom copyright header:
                <copyrightHeader>Copyright (c) this year, my company</copyrightHeader>

                Or use the SAP copyright header:
                <sapCopyrightHeader>true</sapCopyrightHeader>
