Hi -
I have an edit page where I need the user data to be saved and then a custom action to occur.
I currently have these steps in two different buttons:

1 - the Save button of the edit page - save the data

2 - a custom button added to the edit page - which performs the custom action required
When the user clicks the custom button, I would like to have a screen (popup or otherwise) that asks the user if they have performed a Save yet. If they answer now, then we will not proceed to the custom action. If they answer yes, then the custom action will proceed.
My questions are:

  • Is this an okay way to check if the user has performed a Save yet?
  • How would I implement the check?
  • Do you see an alternative way to handle these steps?
