You can start a job on the entity that is not based on a work order derived from a BOM. The job that is created will not contain BOM definitions or start/required quantities. The main function for this job is to collect production counts for tracking the entity's performance for OEE. This functionality is intended for applications where production and consumption are not needed and so are not being entered.
