    Hi Pratik,

    could you share your business requirement? What kind of logic would you want to run only when user clicks Save, but not if the record is saved by other means (Ctrl-S, move focus to different record, hit Enter...).

    Anyway, you can override task() method of a form, and debug it to see what different commands are executed there in different scenarios. If there is something specific that happens only when Save button is clicked, you should be able to find it here.

    What if I use a shortcut instead of clicking the button?

    And if don't bother pressing the button and I just leave the record or close the form, is it really a different case that should behave differently?
