Limited to 1 transaction - will this change?

Classic Servoy
1

Servoy currently permits only 1 transaction at a time. Are there any plans to support multiple ?

Scenario… let’s say I’m running a form that edits customers (from table CUSTOMERS) and I make a change, then I want to modify the customer address (from CUSTOMER_ADDRESS). I popup the customer address screen (cause there could be multiple addresses per customer). I make a change to an address and then decide I don’t want that change so I cancel (which invokes databaseManager.rollbackEditedRecords) - now the address change is reverted but also the change I made on the main customer form.

What would be cool is if the customer form was one transaction and the address form was another transaction - that way they could be committed/rolled back independently.
Perhaps this is do-able in Servoy 4 now and I just don’t see it. If not, is this something that is planned ??

Thanks in advance.

what you can do now is use databasemannager.setAutoSave(false)

and then save specific records when it is still false:

databaseManager.saveData(myAddressRecord)
