4 years agoWhen you think about formula URL buttons, you need to think through exactly what you want them to do.
in you case, I assume you want to launch off a record,
Flag as copied
Create duplicate record in a different table.
and then land the user where?
But before we start writing code for this, is there a good reason to want to duplicate the record? Often, a better solution is to just have a status field in the record and use reports to filter the records. Once you start down a path of duplication, there is the risk that the two records will get different.
