I would like for some events to trigger the creation of a 'note'.
A note in my system is contained in a table of its own and is any information relating to a job. Currently the user enters all notes but there are certain circumstances where this could be automated.
I would like a check box for job completion. When selected I want a note to be generated to say:
"Job completed" (by default any note added would have todays date in the current setup)
So the user finds the record and clicks complete and that's it.
Similarly I would like an event to occur when the start date is changed. something like:
"Job start date changed to (whatever the user input)"
The start date in this case would exist twice. Once in the notes and once on the jobs listed start date. This is how I want it because the start date in jobs can be changed and I want all of the information available at a later date.
In both cases it would be useful to also force the user to enter additional notes. Even if there are none and they click through (the field can remain empty).
How would I go about this?
thanks, Andy.
