Re: subscription or contracts?
I think the contrary: contract is there for long time and it's rock solid, while subscription_oca is way far away in terms of features than the other. The only argument for now is that subscription_oca is simpler, which is true, but that's also because it has less features. And adding such features will get to the same complexity of contract. I agree things can be improved, like hiding some features like predecessor/successor under configuration options (or even extract it to another module), but that's something that is also "simple to improve".
Regards.

subscription or contracts?
Hi! I would like to use some functionality of recurring sales and/or recurring invoices. Looking at [1] I see "contract*" and subscription_oca. Both seem to do pretty much the same and I'm wondering which one to use. Subscriptions seem to be a bit easier to use. But are there any technical aspects which one solution can do but not the other? It seems that subscription_oca matches the official documentation [2] so maybe it's an OCA maintained former Odoo SA implementation? And contracts are an independent implementation? In this case which one has the more promising future path? Best regards, Jan [1] https://github.com/OCA/contract/ [2] https://www.odoo.com/documentation/15.0/applications/sales/subscriptions.html
