Test__c trigObj = trigger.newMap.get(Test.id);
if(trigObj != null){
trigObj.addError('Cloned record should not have the same period as that of Parent record');
}

Try this.


You can add error messages in triggers by using Salesforce trigger addError method.
For Example - Sobject.addError('Error Messages');
