Prevent duplicate records with externalid
I have a custom record type with a script that creates an externalid when a new record is entered. The externalid is a concatenation of several record fields, which should always be unique. When it is a duplicate the script throws an error, but the record gets created anyway. Is there a way for the script to catch that error and stop before the record gets created? I can probably do it with a search, but I'm wondering if there's a simpler way.
