We have a Function that loops through records and identifies where a Late Fee May Be Charged.
I want to change this slightly so it appends records to tblBulkLateFees and then the operator will review a Continuous Form clicking where No Late Fee should be charged this time (maybe 10 out of 200 records) and then the Late Fees will be actioned from tblBulkLateFees.
What I fear is that while this process is taking place, another operator may charge a Late Fee or do some other activity to a record that may make the data on tblBulkLateFees out of date
How is this approached ?? Of course if an operator was to start the process and take a Late Lunch before reviewing the continuous form, then you could hardly expect time to stop. We don't have many operators so we could just call out let all parties know but this doesn't sound like a Text Book approach
Appreciate any advice.
Cuurently the process is to handle each record and make the choice and go onto the next. This virtually means no chance of a record change but it means an operator must remain working on the task for long time where as the new process just means a quick review of the form and the system will sort out the charging of fees and sending an email message.
