Procedures questions
Sep 18th, 2010 at 5:02pm
Print Post Print Post  
In an invoice application, similar to the Sesame Seasons Sample ap. Is it 'safe' for several users to be viewing and making slight edits to the LineItems database in table mode, while another user updates existing invoices and add new invoices?

The user editing invoices is noticing line item data disappearing and we think it's caused by the other users in the LineItems database. (data is being replaced by search specs)

Any thoughts?

Steve

Erika, thanks. Ben asked me to send in my ap, which I will do soon.

My .02 cents; the user working in the Invoice form (User A) is being 'locked out' by another user in the LineItems form whenever User A runs Formfieldvalue() and FormCommit() commands on the LineItems subform.

Can we easily allow User A to maintain priority over their subrecords and keep them locked to other users until they close the form?

Sincerely,
Steve

Not that I know of, Steve. Record locking locks a single record for each database at a time. Depending on what you are doing, it may be possible to add custom checks using SBasic.
