Trigger on Equipment Object

Hi,

 

I got to write a trigger for the following requirement:

 

There are 2 custom objects. Service Agreement object and Equipment object.

 Once the equipment has been moved off the service agreement, the ‘Under Contract’ picklist should be defaulted to unchecked and ‘Contract Status’ should changed to ‘Not Under Contract’.

What means "Once the equipment has been moved off the service agreement"? the Equipment has beeen unassigned from Service Agreement?


Where are ‘Contract Status’ and ‘Under Contract’ fields? on Equipment?

Ya once the equipment is un assigned from the service agreement.

 

Service agreement and Equipment are in a loookup relationship.

 

Contract Status and Under Contract  are custom fields on the Equipment object.

Ok, try this:

 

trigger UnAssignServiceAgreement on Equipment__c (before insert, before update) {
	for (Equipment__c equipment : Trigger.new) {
		if (equipment.ServiceAgreement__c == null) {
			equipment.Under_Contract__c = 'unchecked';
			equipment.Contract_Status__c = 'Not Under Contract';
		}
	}
}

 

 

But probably is better do it on a workflow.
