Formula for workflow to send Outbound Message

I'm trying to make an Outbound msg. fire when the following happens on a Custom Object

 

 

I don't know why I can't think of the syntax, but it's just not saving - and I'm stuck.  

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

SRC_Contract_ID__c is a TEXT field (populated by a formula)

Most_Recent_Update__c is a DATETIME field

 

Here is the Formula I am trying to write for the workflow:

 

((SRC_Contract_ID__c <> null 

&

LastModifiedBy.Username IS NOT 'xxxxxx@xxx.com.test')

 

OR

 

(SRC_Contract_ID__c <> null

&

LastModifiedBy.Username IS NOT 'xxxxxx@xxx.com.test'

&

Most_Recent_Update__c IS now))

I created a trigger instead to update the Object which triggers the Outbound Message workflow.

To be honest, I want the Outbound Message to fire EVERY TIME the object is edited, except when it is edited by one specific user (an integration user).

When I set the rule to EVERY TIME IT IS EDITED, my integration with the outbound msg. went into a loop - b/c the integration user pushes back a msg. that states whether integration was a success - which in turn then re-sends the Outbound Msg... in a never ending loop.

see my problem? :)


There are more fields than these that could be edited that need to make the Outbound Msg.
