Back again, I'm working on something that calculates revenue per period and stores it in a custom record type that we use for customer budget tracking, I've got it working where it creates the record, but the next consideration is, how can i check if a record already exists based on the fields in the record? is there a way I can throw a saved search per record i need to check or am I going to be better off loading all instances of the custom record into an object and comparing it that way?
