Trigger that updates a text field with a specific value based on picklist fields
I have a requirement where I need a text field to update with a specific value based on other picklist field values selected.
I need it to be configured using a trigger as there is already another trigger running on the same object. I have already configured this in process builder but I am getting an unhandled error message due to the existing trigger.
So what I need is the follow
Picklist_1__c = CIF
Picklist_2__c = Air
Text_Field__c = 4%

Hellos,
Could you please give more detail on the error message encountered by you.
The below is the execution order in salesforce and process builder workflows comes in the end and triggers have executed way before.
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.apexcode.meta/apexcode/apex_triggers_order_of_execution.htm
The unhandled error message could be because of some other reason because process builder will not come in way of trigger execution.

Veena.
This is the error that I am getting
"Apex trigger OpportunityTrigger caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: OpportunityTrigger: execution of AfterUpdate caused by: System.DmlException: Update failed.

How the Interview Started
Nevin O'Regan (00546000000sHXc) started the flow interview.
Some of this flow's variables were set when the interview started.
myVariable_old = 006g000000EpgiFAAR
myVariable_current = 006g000000EpgiFAAR
ASSIGNMENT: myVariable_waitStartTimeAssignment
{!myVariable_waitStartTimeVariable} Equals {!Flow.CurrentDateTime}
Result
{!myVariable_waitStartTimeVariable} = "09/07/2017 21:28"
DECISION: myDecision
Executed this outcome: myRule_1
Outcome conditions: and
1. {!myVariable_current.Incoterms__c} (C&F) Equals C&F
2. {!myVariable_current.Shipping_Mode__c} (By Land) Does not equal By Air
Logic: All conditions must be true (AND)
RECORD UPDATE: myRule_1_A1
Find all Opportunity records where:
Id Equals {!myVariable_current.Id} (006g000000EpgiFAAR)
Update the records’ field values.
Incoterms_Shipping_Adjustment__c = 1.04
Result
Failed to update records that meet the filter criteria.
Error Occurred: The flow tried to update these records: null. This error occurred: LIMIT_EXCEEDED: System.LimitException: Too many SOQL queries: 101. For details, see API Exceptions.
If yes, then you can definitely create workflow and set the calculated logic for that Text_Field__c.
In addition, make sure you are putting text under the double quotations etc.. Also it there is still an issue then post your trigger and we will see if we can fit the workflows code/automation inside the trigger and you might not need an workflow or process builder.
Triggers are fired before workflows.
Hope this helps!
if it is not for the same action then please put the trigger code and we will be able to find out what error it is having.
The question is kinda misleading to somewhere else but the error is due to something else.
Veena.
