Using a query inside a for loop will result in "too many soql queries" for large transactions. To avoid this, use maps and be sure to aggregate results into a single query.

It won't show any error. But when you try process records in bulk format (Inserting/Updating more than 200 records in a single transacation ) it can't process that in single go .

 

So We need to pull all the records in the single query outside of Loop Statement and Process the List of records for DML Operation.

 

Kindly let me know incase you need more question on this.

Hi,

 

You need to query list of records inside for loop and your problem will be solved. Look at below code snippet I have queried list of account records and updated that, so you don't need to run DML outside for loop query.

 

for(List<Account> lstAccount : [Select Id, Name from Account]){
	for(integer i=0; i<lstAccount.size(); i++){
		lstAccount[i].Name = 'Test Account' + i;
	}
	update lstAccount;
}

 

Let me know if you have any specific question around this.

 

Happy to help you!
