@screnshaw You can set a Map/Reduce off running from a script using the

N/task

module. But for the UI I think that Save and Execute would be the only way without making a button to do so with code.

Yeah, I'm aware of task, I was just hoping to skip a button click lol.

For processes that end users manually trip, I usually make a suitelet that kicks off the map reduce task, then you can add the link to the suitelet as a center category. All the suitelet does is on GET submit the task and return to the user that it was executed successfully. You can get fancier and track the status for the users. All depends on the process.

I have that for one of my map/reduces. I should make a standard dev suitelet for doing multiple things in test.
