Update Opportunity Name

Hello,

 

I am trying to write a trigger that will update the Opportunity Name to a standard format of "Account Name - Record Type of Opportunity (Launch Year in Opportunity)".  My trigger below returns the error "Apex trigger OpportunityName caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: OpportunityName: execution of BeforeInsert caused by: System.QueryException: List has more than 1 row for assignment to SObject: Trigger.OpportunityName: line 7, column 1"...I am fairly new to triggers so is there something simple that I am missing?

 

 

 

trigger OpportunityName on Opportunity (before insert) {

    FOR (Opportunity opp: trigger.new) {
 
    Opportunity oppSelect = [
    SELECT RecordType.Name, Name, Launch_Year__c, Account.name, WO__c
    FROM Opportunity];
    
    IF(opp.RecordType.name=='New Business'){
          opp.Name = opp.Account.name+' - '+'New ('+opp.Launch_Year__c+')';
          }
    ELSE IF(opp.WO__c!='Yes' && opp.RecordType.name=='Upsell'){
          opp.Name = opp.Account.name+' - '+'Upsell ('+opp.Launch_Year__c+')';
          }
    ELSE IF(opp.RecordType.name=='Renewal'){
          opp.Name = opp.Account.name+' - '+'Renewal ('+opp.Launch_Year__c+')';
          }
    ELSE IF(opp.WO__c=='Yes' && opp.RecordType.name=='Upsell'){
          opp.Name = opp.Account.name+' - '+'(WO-)';
          }
          
    }

}

Hi jnellan22,

Just a comment, your trigger will likely result in governor limit exception.

you need to remove the " Opportunity oppSelect = [
    SELECT RecordType.Name, Name, Launch_Year__c, Account.name, WO__c
    FROM Opportunity];" 

from the for loop. 

you can possible run it at the begining of the trigger.

Also, this select statement is going to return a lot of records, might want to add a "Where" clause.  It doesn't seem like you are using for any of the code after that line.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.  I removed the SELECT statement so now the error is gone, but the trigger does not update the Opportunity name at all.  Is there something else I am missing?

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner but have you checked to make sure that there are records that meet the conditions that you are checking for?
