Dippan Patel Workflow executing Apex trigger twice
Hi,
I have After Update Trigger with two dynamic filter criteria and they are in "OR".
Example: If Lead Source Data Value Changes ---> process record
OR
If Email Opt Out Data Value Changes --> process record.
Now, I also have a workflow with condition on any update on record.
Example: If Email Opt out is FALSE, then change it to TRUE.
Steps of Execution:
1. If you change Lead Source manually, trigger fires.
2. Workflow fires to change Email Opt Out to TRUE.
3. And Trigger fires again.
I only want my Trigger to fire once. How do I prevent trigger executing twice without changing workflows and filter criteria?
Thank you.

Static boolean runOnce = false;
Put the following code at the very beginning of the trigger handler.
if (runOnce)
{
return;
}
else
{
runOnce = true;
}
