Cola Apex Trigger Not Updating with Proper Date
We created two triggers (one for leads and one for contacts) that populate a lead/contact field with the date of a task that is associated with that lead/contact. The trigger works just fine with contacts, however with leads we have the following issue:
Task is created with an ActivityDate of 5/20/2014 and the trigger sets the date on the lead level as TODAY (ex. 5/30/2014).
This is the code (bold part is where the error is occuring):
trigger UpdateInTouchLead on Task (after insert, after update) {
Set<String> whoIds = new Set<String>();
for (Task t : Trigger.new) {
whoIds.add(t.WhoId);
}
List<Lead> leads = [SELECT Id, First_in_touch__c FROM Lead WHERE Id =: whoIds];
Map<String, Task> taskMap = new Map<String, Task>();
for (Task t : Trigger.new){
if (!(t.Type.equals('Eloqua Activity'))) {
if (t.Status.equals('Completed')) {
taskMap.put(t.WhoId, t);
}
}
}
for (Lead l : leads) {
if (taskMap.containsKey(l.Id)) {
l.First_in_touch__c = taskMap.get(l.Id).ActivityDate;
l.Status = 'In Touch';
l.POC_Communications__c = 'Muted';
}
}
update leads;
}
Any idea on why this isn't working as desired?

I inserted a system.debug statement just before the bolded line, and I check the values of both the activity date and the first in touch date and I received the following results:
|DEBUG|Activity Date: 2014-05-20 00:00:00
|DEBUG|First In Touch null
which is what I would expect.
And then after the bolded line, i put another debug to see the value of first in touch and it reads:
|DEBUG|First In Touch 2014-05-20 00:00:00
Which is again what i would expect. But then the test case still fails. Let me know if there is something I am missing.
