Trigger NOT executing what it should.. PLEASE HELP

I wrote a trigger on a custom object called Project (Pse__proj__c).

Basically I want the trigger to create a new budget (Pse__Budget__c) which is a seperate custom object, every time the checkbox "pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True" 

My trigger is not getting any errors in the dev org but it is not creating a new budget when the checkbox is checked... 

Any help would be much appreciated !! 
  
trigger CreateBudgetForProject on pse__Proj__c (after insert){
    
    List<pse__Budget__c> Listbud = new List<pse__Budget__c>();
    
    for(pse__Proj__c pro : trigger.new)
    {
        if(Trigger.isUpdate)
        {
            if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
            {
                //Fields that will be filled on Budget
                listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
                                               pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
                                               pse__Project__c = pro.Name,

Try this 
trigger CreateBudgetForProject on pse__Proj__c (after insert){
    
    List<pse__Budget__c> Listbud = new List<pse__Budget__c>();  
    for(pse__Proj__c pro : trigger.new)
    {
        if(Trigger.isUpdate)
        {
            if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
            {
                //Fields that will be filled on Budget
                listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
                                               pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
                                               pse__Project__c = pro.Name,
                                               pse__Type__c = 'Customer Purcahse Order',
                                               pse__Status__c = 'Approved',
                                               pse__Effective_Date__c = pro.pse__Start_Date__c
                                              ));
            }
        }
        
        if (Trigger.isInsert)
        {
            if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
            {
                //Fill Mandatory Fields on Associated Budget Object 
                listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
                                           pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
                                           pse__Project__c = pro.Name,
                                           pse__Type__c = 'Customer Purcahse Order',
                                           pse__Status__c = 'Approved',
                                           pse__Effective_Date__c = pro.pse__Start_Date__c
                                          ));
            }
        }
        
        if(listbud.size() > 0)
        {
            insert listbud;
        }
        }
    }

Try this .. your trigger is after insert  .. you are checking isUpdate and inside your check insert .. it will never reach this condition .

  
trigger CreateBudgetForProject on pse__Proj__c (after insert){

List<pse__Budget__c> Listbud = new List<pse__Budget__c>();

for(pse__Proj__c pro : trigger.new)
{
 	if (Trigger.isInsert)
		{
			if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
			{
				//Fill Mandatory Fields on Associated Budget Object 
				listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
										   pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
										   pse__Project__c = pro.Name,
										   pse__Type__c = 'Customer Purcahse Order',
										   pse__Status__c = 'Approved',
										   pse__Effective_Date__c = pro.pse__Start_Date__c
										  ));
			}
		}
}

	if(listbud.size() > 0)
	{
		insert listbud;
	}
	
}

Hi Kris,
If you insert the record at both of events i.e. after insert and after update. You will specify both the condition in the trigger like this. 


trigger CreateBudgetForProject on pse__Proj__c (after insert,after update){
    
    List<pse__Budget__c> listbud = new List<pse__Budget__c>();  
    
    if(trigger.isAfter && trigger.isUpdate)
    {
      for(pse__Proj__c pro : trigger.new)
        {
           if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
            {
                //Fields that will be filled on Budget
                listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
                                               pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
                                               pse__Project__c = pro.Name,
                                               pse__Type__c = 'Customer Purcahse Order',
                                               pse__Status__c = 'Approved',
                                               pse__Effective_Date__c = pro.pse__Start_Date__c
                                              ));
            }
        }
        if(listbud.size() > 0)
        {
            insert listbud;
        }
    }
        
    else if (trigger.isAfter && trigger.isInsert)
        {
          for(pse__Proj__c pro : trigger.new)
          {
              if(pro.Created_by_Opp__c == True)
               {
                //Fill Mandatory Fields on Associated Budget Object 
                  listbud.add(new pse__Budget__c(name = pro.name, 
                                           pse__Amount__c = pro.Product_Budget_MAP__c,
                                           pse__Project__c = pro.Name,
                                           pse__Type__c = 'Customer Purcahse Order',
                                           pse__Status__c = 'Approved',
                                           pse__Effective_Date__c = pro.pse__Start_Date__c
                                          ));
               }
           }
         if(listbud.size()>0)
           {
            insert listbud;
           }
        }
        
        
        
        
        
Hope this will help you.

Thank You
