Trigger Error data changed by trigger for field <sObject>: id value of incorrect type:
Hi All, I'm quite new to apex, I have created a trigger on two objects CONTACT & OPPORTUNITIES.
When I convert a LEAD to ACCOUNT, it also creates a Contact and an Opportunity, so in this process I want a Custom Field(Consultant__C) on both of these objects to be updated with a field that is there on LEAD and later comes in ACCOUNT.
I have also written a test class, but when I try to deploy it comes with the error given below - not sure where I'm going wrong.
"ConsultantUpdateTest.validateConsultantonContact System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY, ConsultantUpdateOnContact: data changed by trigger for field Consultant: id value of incorrect type: a0VD0000002KYPfMAO: []"
Trigger Code for Contact
----------------------------------
trigger ConsultantUpdateOnContact on Contact (before insert) {
Account a = [select consultant__c from Account where id = :Trigger.new[0].AccountId];
Trigger.new[0].Consultant__c = a.Consultant__c;
}
Trigger Code for Opportunity
-------------------------------------
trigger ConsultantUpdate on Opportunity (before insert) {
Account o = [select Consultant__c from Account where Id = :trigger.new[0].AccountId];
trigger.new[0].Consultant__c = o.Consultant__c;
}
My Test Class
---------------------
@IsTest
public with sharing class ConsultantUpdateTest {
static testMethod void validateConsultantonContact() {
Consultant__c c = new Consultant__c(name = 'Mac Kay', first_name__c = 'Mac');
insert c;
system.assertNotEquals(null, c.id);
Account a = new Account(name='Test Account', consultant__c = c.id);
insert a;
system.assertNotEquals(null, a.id);
Contact con = new Contact(lastname = 'Smith', Accountid = a.id);
insert con;
system.assertNotEquals(null, con.id);
Opportunity o = new Opportunity(name = 'Harry' , Accountid = a.id , CloseDate = Date.Today() , StageName = 'Open' , LeadSource = 'Website', Lead_Source_Detail__c = '-- na --');
insert o;
system.assertNotEquals(null, o.id);
