Hi,

 

Hitesh is right, but your trigger will update all account records, so i think you also need to check one more condition in your for loop

 

for(Account acc : Trigger.new) {

 

if(acc.PicklistField__c == '10') {

 

 //Your logic

}

}

 

In that case it update records if PicklistField__c field value is 10

 

Thanks

Hi nik,

 

Your SOQL query on account object is like below.

 

SOQL query:

select id from account where YourPicklist__c = '10'

Hi Nikkey,

 

You can write your query like

 

List<Account> accounts = [Select Id, Name, picklist field From Account Where picklist field = '10' ];

 

Thanks

Hi Subhash and Hitesh ,

 

thanks for ur rply .

 

i have written the code it got saved but whn i create a record it throws an ERROR as: 

Error: Invalid Data. 
Review all error messages below to correct your data.
Apex trigger fetchpicklistvalue caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: fetchpicklistvalue: execution of BeforeInsert caused by: System.SObjectException: DML statment cannot operate on trigger.new or trigger.old: Trigger.fetchpicklistvalue: line 13, column 1.

 

 trigger fetchpicklistvalue on account(before insert,before update)

{
//if(trigger.isinsert || trigger.isupdate)
list<account> alist = new list<account>();
list<account> acc = [select id,name,PicklistField__c from account where PicklistField__c='10'];
for(account a : trigger.new)
{
a.name='xyz';
alist.add(a);
}
if(alist.size()>0 && alist.size()!=null)
{
update alist;
}
}

 

Request to kindly check and do the needful.

 

Thanks in Advance

Hi nik,

In before trigger you don't need to write DML statement in your trigger.

I have updated your code see below trigger.

 

Apex Trigger:

trigger fetchpicklistvalue on account(before insert,before update){
    //if(trigger.isinsert || trigger.isupdate)
    list<account> alist = new list<account>();
    list<account> acc = [select id,name,PicklistField__c from account where PicklistField__c='10'];
    for(account a : trigger.new){
        a.name='xyz';       
    }    
}
