4 years agoWould it be at all practical to have a button either on the A record or the B record which would be visible in view mode (not grid edit) which would copy the A record and ALL its children and immediately land the user on the New A with its duplicated children. Then the user would use the checkbox on the embedded report to delete the unwanted children?

Hey Mark,
Thanks for taking the time to look at this and I appreciate the alternate solution idea. It is a possibility.
We don't allow the end user's to delete records, though I am looking to build in a cancel/remove button functionality which would operate in the same way as what you are getting at.
For my app, it would probably make most sense to have that button on the A record. My concern with a button is for it to finish running the copy/recreate before landing them on the newly created A record.
How do you envision this button workflow operating? Would it trigger a pipeline?
I'm familiar with both a formula and pipeline solution based on what you are getting at so you can just give me a relatively high-level idea. But as I mentioned, based on my past experiences I'm concerned about the runtime.
Thank you!
