Daniel Mason Trigger which updates picklist value based on criteria
HI All
I need some help creating a trigger. This is my first time creating a trigger so my applogises if its incorrect.
Aim : Every time a task is created which meets criteria ( See below) then change the status (picklist) from “Not started” to “Completed”
The trigger should only fire if it meets the following criteria RecordTypeId = '0123000000007ZoAAI'
Type.contains 'meeting:'
Type.contains 'Call;'
Type = 'Other - see subject'
ownerid = 00E30000000gYL8
I have attempted to create the following trigger, but I am not sure if I am on the correct lines
Really looking forward to your help

trigger UpdateStatus on Task (after insert) {
for (Task t : trigger.new){
if (t.RecordTypeId == '0123000000007ZoAAI'){
if (t.Type.contains('meeting:')){
if (t.Type.contains ('Call;'))
if (t.Type = 'Other - see subject';
}
}
}
}
}
// Need to include assigned to owner/
if(t.OwnerId == '00E30000000gYL8'){
Status = 'Completed':
Good news - you dont need a trigger to do this. A workflow rule and field update should be used to do this instead. Let me know if you need any help confoguring the workflow rule.
