You can create portal user associated with Site method Site.createPortalUser(). If you want person Accounts to be Portal users you should use createPersonAccount​PortalUser(). See the full documentation here. http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_classes_sites.htm

Hi  bvramkumar,

Thanks for your reply.

Can you send me sample trigger to convert the Contact to Customer portal User.

(Event is   after insert).

If i try to convert using Site.createPortalUser();

Throwing error as follows:

 

(System Code)
Trigger.ConverttoPortaluser: line 16, column 1
03:46:50.070 (6899180070089892)|FATAL_ERROR|System.TypeException: That operation is only allowed from within an active site.

(System Code)
