Getting Real Time For Field

In this discussion, I will use the word timestamp in the generic sense and not with any QuickBase specific definitions.  Also, this problem is happening to mobile device users.

I have a form which includes the following url formula.  This URL Formula puts a timestamp in the Job Start date/time field.
URLRoot() & "db/"&[_DBID_XXXXXXXX]&"?a=API_EditRecord&rid=" & [Related Order] &
"&_fid_1=" & URLEncode(Now()) & URLEncode(Now()) &"&rdr=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid()&"?a=dr&rid="&[Record ID#])

This formula creates a button on my form which when pushed, changes a Date Time field in another table to the value Now().  I use similar formulas for several other purposes such as Job End, Time Card Start, and Time Card End.

This formula does exactly what is expected, except it uses the time the form was loaded instead of the current time.  So if a user loads a form at 8:00am and then without refreshing the form, hits the button at 9:00am, instead of loading 9:00pm (current time), it uses 8:00am (the time the form was loaded).  Generally the form is refreshed frequently enough that the difference is not significant, but when the form is not refreshed frequently, it is creating work time analysis problems and pay check problems.  

Any ideas on how to get the current device time instead of the form load time?
