Hi Deepika,

In you code you have used     if( Account.RecordTypeId =='ParticularId')  whic is wrong as in if condition you need to compare two value using == (Equality) operator. whihc will return boolena value true or false. if condition is true then it will execute the code inside the of condition.

Use the below code and let me know if it works for you.
  
public static void TempAcc()
    {
       if( Account.RecordTypeId =='ParticularId')
        { 
          
               // system.debug('Account category needs to be blank when parent account is selected');
          
       }
     }

Thanks,
Debasis

Hi Debasis,
First i have used == operator too but on that time its giving error like this :

Compile Error: Comparison arguments must be compatible types: Schema.SObjectField, String.

Can you please post your full code. Also please check you have any Apex class with Account Name ??

HI Deepika,

here you are comparing recordtype id with a string value.

please change this below code as per your objcet name and record type name.'
Here instead of  Account.RecordTypeI, please referc to a particular account record's recordtype.  

in this below  line 
id RecTypeId= schema.SobjectType.YourObjectName.getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('Your reordtypename').getrecordtypeId();
replace your object name and record type name to get the id of that record type to check in if condition 
public static void TempAcc()
    {
id RecTypeId= schema.SobjectType.YourObjectName.getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('Your reordtypename').getrecordtypeId();

       if( Account.RecordTypeId == RecTypeId)
        { 
          
               // system.debug('Account category needs to be blank when parent account is selected');
          
       }
     }

It will be more helpful if you can share your complete code to help you out.

Thanks,
Debasis

Still i am getting the error like :

Comparison arguments must be compatible types: Schema.SObjectField, Id at line 170 column 12

Code : Because of security reasons i cant share the code but this is the only method which i am going to create which is giving error.

Please try like below code. 
public static void TempAcc(Account acc)
    {
        id RecTypeId= schema.SobjectType.Account.getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('Temporary Account').getrecordtypeId();
        if( acc.RecordTypeId == RecTypeId)
        {
               // system.debug('Account category needs to be blank when parent account is selected');
        }
    }
Let us know if this will help you

Thanks

HI Deepika,

please update your method defination to pass the account record and try this below code.
  
public static void TempAcc(Acccount acc)
    {
id RecTypeId= schema.SobjectType.Account.getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('Temporary Account').getrecordtypeId();

       if( acc.RecordTypeId == RecTypeId)
        { 
          
               // system.debug('Account category needs to be blank when parent account is selected');
          
       }
     }
