Create Multiple Parents and Children and Map Parent id to Child

Hi,

 

I want to create a custom visual force page to Create a Multiple Parent and Related Children, where on save i have to mach the parent id to corresponding children and save them too.

 

I Have code as Follows where on save all children are Mapped to First Parent Record....

 

Is there a way i can create a Multiple Parents and childs at a time each corresponding to right parent..

 

public class TVA_Billing_Items {

    public List<Opportunity> Opps  {get; set;}
    public List<OpportunitylineItem> Oppli  {get; set;}
    
    string id;
    decimal i =0; 
    decimal j = 0;
    public TVA_Billing_Items(ApexPages.StandardController myController) 
    {
    this.id = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id');
    Opportunity o =[select id,name,Account.name,stagename,CloseDate,amount,probability,Header_Opportunity__c,Accountid,Opp_Line_Items_Count__c,Billing_Contact__c,No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c from Opportunity where id=:id];
    OpportunitylineItem[] oli = [select id,Quantity,UnitPrice,Opportunityid,Quote_Original_List_Price__c  from OpportunityLineItem where Opportunityid=:o.id] ;
    Pricebookentry p = [select id,name from Pricebookentry where PricebookEntry.IsActive = true limit 1 ];
    
     i = o.No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c;
     Opps = new List<Opportunity>();
     Oppli =new List<OpportunitylineItem>();
     
     
    
     for(i=0;i<o.No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c;i++){
     Opportunity LitOrd = new Opportunity();
   // Opps = [select id,name,Account.name,stagename,CloseDate,amount,probability,Header_Opportunity__c,Accountid,Opp_Line_Items_Count__c,Billing_Contact__c,No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c  from Opportunity where id=:id];
   //  LitOrd.Billing_Contact__c  = o.Billing_Contact__c;  
  
      Opps.add(LitOrd);
       for(j=0;j<o.Opp_Line_Items_Count__c;j++){
           // for(OpportunitylineItem oli1:oli){
            OpportunitylineItem LitOrdch = new OpportunitylineItem();
            //Oppli  =[select id,Quantity,UnitPrice,Opportunityid,Quote_Original_List_Price__c from OpportunityLineItem where Opportunityid=:LitOrd.id limit 1];
          
         
           // LitOrdch.Quote_Original_List_Price__c  = oli1.Quote_Original_List_Price__c ;
          
           //LitOrdch.opportunityid = LitOrd.id;
         // LitOrdch.opportunity=LItord.id;
          LitOrdch.PricebookEntryId=p.id;
          
            Oppli.add(LitOrdch); 
          
          // }
        } 
       
       }
       }   
     

    public void addrow() {
   
            Opportunity LitOrd = new Opportunity();
            //Opportunity LitOrd1 = new Opportunity();
            Opps.add(LitOrd);
            //Opps.add(LitOrd1);
       
        }
       
            
    public void removerow()

        Integer i = Opps.size();
        Opps.remove(i-1);
    }

            for(Opportunity Opps1 :Opps){
            
           
              for(opportunityLineItem oppli1 :Oppli){
             Oppli1.OpportunityId = Opps1.id;
            
            }
             //insert Oppli;
            }
            
            insert Oppli;
        }    

      catch (DMLException e) {
      ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.ERROR,'Oops An Error Occured!'));
      return null;
    } 
     
         return(new ApexPages.StandardController(Opps[0])).view();
       
 }

Without reading the post in complete detail, you're trying to achieve a parent - child relationship.

 

If the parent records dont already exist, i.e. they dont already have a salesforce id, then you could set an internal id on them, which would help you relate the parent to child records

 

eg. on Opportunity create a field called Internal_Id__c, which is hidden and not displayed

 

Map<String, Opportunity> opps = new Map<String, Opportunity>{};

 

// a map of opportunity ids to a list of child objects

Map<String, List<OpportunityLineItem>> oppLI = new Map<String, List<OpportunityLineItem>>{};

 

 

so when you create a new parent

Opportunity parent = new Opportunity(Internal_Id__c = '001');

opps.add(parent.Internal_Id__c, parent);

 

new chilren

oppLI.put(parent.Internal_Id__c, new List<OpportunityLineItem>);

 

oppLi.get(parent.Internal_Id__c).add(new OpportunityLineItem());

 

 

first persist the parent list

so Database.insert(opps.Values());

 

and then grab the references and set on children

 

List<OpportunityLineItem> children = new List<OpportunityLineItem>{};

 

for(String oppId : oppLI.keySet()){

 

Id parentId = opps.get(oppId).Id; // grab the salesforce id, now that parent has been inserted

 

for(OpportunityLineItem oli : oppLI.get(parentId)){

oli.OpportunityId = parentId; //set parent reference

children.add(oli); //aggregate children for insert

}

}

 

//Now that parent references have been set, insert children

Database.insert(children);

Hi 

 

I created the Field Internal id but un fortunately getting some Errors on saving the class

 

i have problems in inserting the child to right parent

 

please suggest me which part of the following code needs to be changed

 

public class TVA_Billing_Items {

    public List<Opportunity> Opps  {get; set;}
    public List<OpportunitylineItem> Oppli  {get; set;}
   
    string id;
    decimal i =0; 
    decimal j = 0;
    
    public TVA_Billing_Items(ApexPages.StandardController myController) 
    {
    this.id = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id');
     Opportunity o =[select id,name,Account.name,stagename,CloseDate,amount,probability,Header_Opportunity__c,Accountid,Opp_Line_Items_Count__c,Billing_Contact__c,No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c from Opportunity where id=:id];
     
     i = o.No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c;
     Opps = new List<Opportunity>();
     Oppli =new List<OpportunitylineItem>();
     
     for(i=0;i<o.No_Of_Months_for_Billing__c;i++){
     Opportunity LitOrd = new Opportunity();
      Opps.add(LitOrd);
      
       for(j=0;j<o.Opp_Line_Items_Count__c;j++){
          
             OpportunitylineItem LitOrdch = new OpportunitylineItem();
           
             Oppli.add(LitOrdch); 
          
        
        } 
       
       }
       }   
     

            
    public PageReference save() 
    {
    
     try{
     //Here I am Inserting the Opportunities first 
            insert Opps;
                    // for each Opp i am trying to insert OPplines but a//all lines are saved to first Opp  
             for(Opportunity Opps1 :Opps){
                       
             for(opportunityLineItem oppli1 :Oppli){
             Oppli1.OpportunityId = Opps1.id;
            
            }
            
            }
            
            insert Oppli;
        }    

      catch (DMLException e) {
      ApexPages.addMessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.ERROR,'Oops An Error Occured!'));
      return null;
    } 
     
         return(new ApexPages.StandardController(Opps[0])).view();
       
 }
   
        }
