Hi all

 

My solution is used over a network, and depending on network activity sometimes the system takes a second to respond to user commands, one in particular is creating a related record. If the system doesn't respond IMMEDIATELY I have some users that repeatedly click the button until something happens, creating many redundant records that I have to go through and delete. The data this part of my solution is tracking only needs one child record creating a day (if that). I need to restrict this particular script to only execute if 5 minutes or more has elapsed since the last related record was created. I would actually prefer to only allow the user to execute this script once a day (per parent record), however I just know that once I implement that, they will need to create multiple child records every day.

 

Is there a way to manage this?

What exactly does the button do?

Go to another (dummy) layout and then return at the end of the script.

That should not take a second.  Can you post your script and explain a bit more about your deployment?  Server, network,...
