SOQL to find Accounts with no contacts

I'd like to run a query to find all Accounts without Contacts. I'm not sure how to form the SOQL query to acheive that.

 

Can anyone make any suggestions?

 

TIA

I am not sure it works.

but try something simillar

select Id form Account where Not Id In (select AccountId form Contact) 

 

hope this may give you an idea. By the way i have not tried subqueries yet though

Hey

 

That's almost right. The idea is correct, the syntax just needs a tweak

 

select Id,name from Account where Id not In (select AccountId from Contact) 

 

Good answers.

 

Cheers,
Wes

Check this it Will definitely work.
select Id from Account where Id not  In (select AccountId from Contact). 
I have already run this soql

For fetching records (account) who have no contacts plz refer below soql.

This code will run.
select Id, name from Account where Id In (select AccountId from Contact) 

if we are using not in mentioned in place of In, like the soql "select Id, name from Account where Id not In (select AccountId from Contact) "
than it will return all Accounts which have contacts.

Hi Benwrigley,

List<Contact> conList=new List<Contact>();
List<Account> accountList=new List<Account>();
conList=[Select AccountId From Contact Limit 10000];
Set<Id> idSet=new Set<Id>();
if(conList.size()>0){
    for(Contact con:conList){
        idSet.add(con.AccountId);
}
}
if(idSet.size()>0){
accountList=[Select Id,Name From Account where Id Not In:idSet Limit 10000];
}
system.debug('accountList->'+accountList);

I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.
Thanks,
Ajay Dubedi

Dear all. these are all posts but I was wondering if anyone could give us a hand.. we do not have a developer and we are trying to remove all the accounts with no contacts related. We are a humanitarian not for profit. Thanks

List<Account> results = [SELECT Id, Name, (Select Name from Contacts) FROM Account];
List<Account> accList = new List<Account>();
for(Account result : results){
    if(result.Contacts.size() == 0){
        accList.add(result);
    }
}

System.debug('Acc List'+accList);
Good Luck Guys.
