Batch Process/Custom Button to Field Update
Hello:
I currently have the following business situation.
We are running a door to door sales app that has been custom built on the Force.com platform.
I have a custom object (Site__c) with a trigger that when a Site__c record gets created, so does a record in custom object New_Door_Assignment__c. These two records have the same Name.
I have a second trigger that when New_Door_Assignment__c is created, multiple child records of custom object Assigned_Address__c get created.
New_Door_Assignment__c has five custom fields: Sales_Rep_One__c, Sales_Rep_Two__c, Sales_Rep_Three__c, Sales_Rep_Four__c and Sales_Rep_Five__c along with a custom formula field Doors_Per_Rep__c.
For example:
New_Door_Assignment__c.Sales_Rep_One__c = John Doe
New_Door_Assignment__c.Sales_Rep_Two__c = Jane Doe
New_Door_Assignment__c.Doors_Per_Rep__c = 50
What I want to do is to take the 100 child records (Assigned_Address__c), sort by custom field Street_Address__c, and update the custom field Rep__c on the first 50 with New_Door_Assignment__c.Sales_Rep_One__c, the second 50 with New_Door_Assignment__c.Sales_Rep_Two__c
From a business perspective, I would like to do this through a custom button because when a New_Door_Assignment__c record is created, we do not know who will be Sales_Rep_One__c, Sales_Rep_Two__c, etc
Is this something that is doable and any guidance I can get to start would be appreciated.
Thanks!
