Hi All,

I'm trying to update the owner of the Account and the corresponding Contract for this account, on completion of the approval process for the Contract - In doing so , while the owner of the Account gets updated successfully , however, the moment I try to update the corresponding Contract an error is thrown which shows a recursive call - Please find the code below :
public void autoTransferAgreementToSales(Contract quNew,Contract quOld ){
     
        List<Account> AccountToUpd = new List<Account>();
        List<Contract > ContractToUpd = new List<Contract >();
        AccountToUpd = [Select Id, OwnerId,Approval_Completion_of_Contract__c from Account where Id = :quNew.AccountId ];
        Map<Id,AccountHistory> history = new Map<Id,AccountHistory>();
        for(AccountHistory t : [Select Acct.AccountId,Acct.OldValue, Acct.NewValue, Acct.Field From AccountHistory Acct Where Acct.Field = 'Owner']){
          if(t.NewValue instanceof ID){
             history.put(t.AccountId, t);
             System.debug('Old: '+ t.OldValue +' New: ' +t.NewValue);
          }  
    
        }
        
        System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::AccountToUpd ********'+ AccountToUpd.size() );
        System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::AccountFldHistory ********'+ history.size() );
         
        for(Account acc: AccountToUpd ) {
           acc.Approval_Completion_of_Contract__c = true;
           if(history.containsKey(acc.Id)){
                 String accOwnerId = String.valueOf(history.get(acc.Id).OldValue);
                 System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::accOwnerId ********'+ accOwnerId );
                 acc.OwnerId     = accOwnerId ;
                  ContractToUpd = [Select Id, OwnerId,Approval_Completion_of_Contract__c  from Contract
                                  where Id=:quNew.Id and AccountId = :quNew.AccountId];
                  for(Contract cont: ContractToUpd ) {
                               cont.Approval_Completion_of_Contract__c = true;
                               cont.OwnerId = accOwnerId ;
                               System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::cont.OwnerId********'+ cont.OwnerId);                            
                   }
                 
           }         
                      
        }
        System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::AccountToUpd ********'+ AccountToUpd.size() );          
        if(AccountToUpd.size() > 0)
              update AccountToUpd ;  
        
       
        System.debug('DEBUG: autoTransferAgreementToSales::ContractToUpd ********'+ ContractToUpd.size() );       
        if(ContractToUpd.size() > 0)
              update ContractToUpd ;         
        
     
     }
