Save and Copy
When creating a new record the form has two save options natively, "Save & Close" or "Save & New". How can I create "Save & Copy"?
In my app there are times when a user might want to fill out a form, save the new record but then immediately create a new record with all the same information filled out from the selections they made from the previous record they just saved. All they then need to do is change the [Date] field and save the copy. They might need to do this 2 or 3 times, making 2-3 copies of what is basically the same record with only the [Date] filed being different.
What's the suggestion for the best way to do this, and can it be done? I would like to avoid, if possible, the user having to go outside the form creation screen.
