Yes Dave, this is what I do now. But, if the condition can_close() is
more than check if the status fields == 'OPEN' ? .. for ie: check
status field + check parent model status + check created date .. (and
in the future add more instructions in can_close() )... so... i
really need to call the can_close() method .. right?
Can you understand my problem now man? Do what u say it's solving my
problem now.. but in the future.. can cause some problem to me..
:)
Thanks for the reply Dave!
