Shavi Dabgotra Error:Apex trigger ASCExists caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: ASCExists: execution of AfterUpdate caused by: System.FinalException: Record is read-only: Trigger.ASCExists: line 6, column 1
I have a requirement in which when the Billing State is Punjab then a custom checkbox(Exists__c should be true) on Account Object. Billing State is a picklist.
I have used Trigger to update that.
trigger ASCExists on Account (after update) {
if(trigger.isAfter && trigger.isUpdate){
for(Account acc:trigger.new){
if(acc.BillingCountry == 'India' && acc.BillingState == 'Punjab' )
{
acc.Exists__c = true ;
update acc;
}
}
}
}
But I am getting this error as:
Error:Apex trigger ASCExists caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: ASCExists: execution of AfterUpdate caused by: System.FinalException: Record is read-only: Trigger.ASCExists: line 6, column 1
How to fix this. Can somebody help in this.
Thank you

Please try this regarding your requirement.
trigger asc_exists on Account (before update, before insert) {
if(trigger.isBefore && (trigger.isUpdate || trigger.isInsert)){
for(Account acc : trigger.new){
if(acc.BillingState == 'Punjab')
{
acc.Advance_Solutions_Exists__c = false;
}
else{
acc.Advance_Solutions_Exists__c = true;
}
}
}
}

Please use the before update trigger rather than after update trigger.
In after the update record is locked and you can not update it.

This solved my problem thank you.
But one problem came as: When Billing state is Punjab it is setting a value to False otherwise, set to True.
trigger asc_exists on Account (before update, before insert) {
if(trigger.isBefore && (trigger.isUpdate || trigger.isInsert)){
for(Account acc : trigger.new){
if(acc.BillingState == 'Punjab')
{
acc.Advance_Solutions_Exists__c = true;
}
else{
acc.Advance_Solutions_Exists__c = false;
}
}
}
}
Thank you in advance.
