Sarbashish Unable to create New Task using S-Control
I am trying to create a New Task and assign it to a particular account (account id: 0015000000GadFpAAJ).
I get to see the alert ID is Null. The task does not get created. I am trying to do this and I have no idea why it is failing. Please find the code below:

Try this:
var result = sforce.connection.create([TaskObj]);
alert(result);
I think the server is returning some error back. If you alert result you
will be able to see it.
I have found the problem. The issue is that you cannot set the accountid at the time of creating the Task record. So all you need to do is create the Task record without the accountid. Then in the next block you have to set the whatid which is the accountid and Salesforce internally will set the accountid. Unfortunately there is no exception thrown in the catch block so you don't have the debugging facility. So the revised code will be something like this:-
function SaveTHISSCalendar(){
try{
//alert(new Date());
var TaskObj = new sforce.SObject("Task");
//TaskObj.What = "Account";
//TaskObj.WhatId = "0015000000GadFpAAJ";
//TaskObj.AccountId = "0015000000GadFpAAJ";
TaskObj.ActivityDate = new Date();
TaskObj.Description = "Thank you order confirmation to Client";
TaskObj.Status = "Not Started";
TaskObj.OwnerId = "00550000000yeTrAAI";
TaskObj.Priority = "Normal";
TaskObj.Subject = "Send Welcome Kit";
var result = sforce.connection.create([TaskObj]);
alert("New Task record created with id " + result[0].id);
// Update the Newly Created Event
TaskObj.id = result[0].id
//TaskObj.AccountId = "0015000000GadFpAAJ";
TaskObj.WhatId = "0015000000GadFpAAJ";
result = sforce.connection.update([TaskObj]);
alert(result[0].id);
alert("tried to update the record");
}catch(e){
alert(e.faultstring);
}
