DataEntry Mode with save option

I have some forms set to DataEntry as I want a certain group of users to enter customer information, but not see the whole customer database once entered or whilst entering.

The forms have a few additional forms linked by customerID. As soon as a form is closed, the information is saved and disappears from view. This is fine, but I would like to make the process easier and have some save/cancel options.

If, as an example, I have these options on a command button opening a linked form, the original main customer form is saved and then disappears from view as the form is set to DataEntry.
Is there any way I can save data at different times ie before a subform or linked form is opened, and the data remains until the main customer form is closed?

Thank you.
