Hi friends,

I am able to create a contact on lead creation but account is not getting created.
here is my trigger,your help is really appreciated !

trigger CreateUserContact on Lead(after insert) {
List<Contact> userContact = new List<Contact>();
Id rtypeId = [SELECT DeveloperName,Id FROM RecordType where SobjectType='Lead' AND 
DeveloperName = 'Birlasoft_Lead' AND IsActive=true limit 1].Id;
for (Lead u: Trigger.New) {
if (u.recordTypeId== rtypeId){
Contact c = new Contact ();
c.FirstName= u.FirstName;
c.LastName= u.LastName;
c.Phone= u.Phone;
c.Email= u.Email;
c.Designation__c= u.Designation__c;
c.Role__c= u.Role__c;

Hi Manish,

Where is the Account creation code? it shouldn't be very different to the one you already have for contacts.

Please ensure that the below query must return a result, and the lead record type must match the recordType returned by this query, other wise the trigger will not run. 
SELECT DeveloperName,Id FROM RecordType where SobjectType='Lead' AND DeveloperName = 'AMN_Lead' AND
                      IsActive=true limit 1

Hava a look at this code. 
  
trigger CreateUserContact2 on Lead(after insert) {
    List<Contact> userContact = new List<Contact>();
    List<Account> userAccount = new List<Account>();
        Id rtypeId = [SELECT DeveloperName,Id FROM RecordType where SobjectType='Lead' AND DeveloperName = 'AMN_Lead' AND
                      IsActive=true limit 1].Id;
            for (Lead u: Trigger.New) {
                if (u.recordTypeId== rtypeId){
                    Contact c = new Contact ();
                        Account a = new Account();
                        a.Name= u.Account_Name__c;
                   c.FirstName= u.FirstName;
                    c.LastName= u.LastName;
                    c.Phone= u.Phone;
                    c.Email= u.Email;
                    c.Designation__c= u.Designation__c;
                    c.Role__c= u.Role__c;
                    userContact.add(c);
                        userAccount.add(a);
                    
				}
			}
	if(userContact.size()>0){
		insert userContact;
	}
	if(userAccount.size()>0){
		insert userAccount;
	}
}
