I know FMP is a live commit database... is there some way to script or otherwise setup a contact record, so that at the end of data entry one is presented with the option to "Save" the record, go back and "Edit" the record, or "Discard" the record - which is like an immediate delete. And when editing an existing contact record options to "Save" or "Discard" changes? (even if it looks like that to end user). Thanks in advance.

There is a checkbox under layout -> layout setup called `Save layout changes automatically`. If you uncheck that box, you will achieve basically the same functionality you are talking about. Whenever a record is edited on that layout you will receive a pop up prompting you to save that looks like the attached image. You can choose the following options:

Don't Save: Which reverts the record, discarding your changes

Save: Saves the changes

Cancel: Allows you to go back and make changes
