Execute a Trigger after an approval Process?

Hi,

I have an approval process setup and wanted to know can I execute a trigger or apex code after a record has been approved?

Thanks...

I think you can use the ProcessInstance Object in the trigger to find out the status of any active approval process  - Confirm if the status is approved so you can perform any action in the trigger.

Hi there,

You can also add a field update (checkbox flag) when a record is approved and based on the field update you could fire trigger.

Good Luck!

Good idea Senthil! I will try that as it seems clean and straightforward.
