Hi All,

I am using Account(Person Account) object and one custom object Recurring Donations. Recurring Donations have a lookup relationship to Account. Now I am sending an email  whenever a donation record is newly created through trigger and I am getting the email address from Account Object  In the email I am using html template from email templates.( I am using html template since i am using images inside the email ). Now if I am using template I need to give targetObjectId. So I gave targetObjectId as accountId. When I give targetObjectId as accountId it is giving error as -You can give only lead,contact and user as targetObjectId. I am not using Contact Object. So guys please help me to find a solution for sending email using Account's email...I can only use email from Account object Below....Please Help

Thanks,
Anju Alexander

 

trigger sendMail on npe03__Recurring_Donation__c (before insert) {
 
Set<id> Ids = new Set<id>();
  
  for(npe03__Recurring_Donation__c donation : trigger.new)
  {
  if(donation.npe03__Organization__c!=null) //npe03__Organization__c is the accountId in recurring donations
  {  
  Ids.add(donation.npe03__Organization__c);
  System.debug('****'+donation.npe03__Organization__c);
  }
  /*catch (NullPointerException e) 
  {
  donation.addError(e);
  }*/
   
  }  
  
  
  // Step 0: Create a master list to hold the emails we'll send
  List<Messaging.SingleEmailMessage> mails = new List<Messaging.SingleEmailMessage>();
  
  List<Account> accnt = new List<Account>();
  for(Account acc : [SELECT id,name,PersonEmail,FirstName from Account where id IN:Ids])
  {
  accnt.add(acc);
  }
    
   for(Account acnt : accnt) {
    if (acnt.PersonEmail != null && acnt.FirstName != null) {
      // Step 1: Create a new Email
      Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail =   new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
    
      // Step 2: Set list of people who should get the email
      List<String> sendTo = new List<String>();
      sendTo.add(acnt.PersonEmail );
      mail.setToAddresses(sendTo);
      mail.setTargetObjectId(acnt.Id);
      
    for(OrgWideEmailAddress owa: [SELECT ID,DisplayName,Address FROM OrgWideEmailAddress])
  {
       mail.setOrgWideEmailAddressId(owa.id);
   
     }   
    
    EmailTemplate templateId = [Select id from EmailTemplate where DeveloperName= 'Recurring_Donation'];
    mail.setTemplateID(templateId.id); 
    mails.add(mail);
    }
  }
  Messaging.sendEmail(mails);
