I have a trigger that updates a field in a custom object (record detail).
The trigger works fine (based on the file size being greater than 0 but i'm trying to add in another condition based on the file type being an excel file.
trigger updatemdf on Attachment (after insert)
{
List<MDF__c> co = [select id, Leads_uploaded__c from mdf__c where id =: Trigger.New[0].ParentId];
if (co.Name.endsWith('.xls') && (co.size()>0))
{
co[0].leads_uploaded__c = true;
update co;
}
}
error messgae i'm getting at line 4 is:
'Save error: Initial term of field expression must be a concrete SObject: LIST<MDF__c>
we have some code that triggers the auto submission of a custom object record for approval.
we want this to trigger after insert or update where a particular chackbox is ticked which could be on insert or after an update.
however we are getting the errors:
- CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY:
- System.NullPointerException: Attempt to de-reference a null object
here is the code:
trigger MDFSubmitForApproval on MDF__c (after insert, after update) {
for (Integer i = 0; i < trigger.new.size(); i++)
{
if(Trigger.old[i].Submitted__c != true && Trigger.new[i].Submitted__c == true)
{
Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest app = new Approval.ProcessSubmitRequest();
app.setObjectId(Trigger.new[i].id);
}
}
}
class:
@isTest
private class TestMDFSubmitForApproval {
static testMethod void testApprovalSuccess() {
MDF__c mdf = new MDF__c();
mdf.Name = 'Test';
mdf.Account_id__c = '00120000001Sqvv';
// insert the new MDF
insert mdf;
mdf.Submitted__c = true;
update mdf;
// ensure that the opp was submitted for approval
List<ProcessInstance> processInstances = [select Id, Status from ProcessInstance where TargetObjectId = :mdf.id];
System.assertEquals(processInstances.size(),1);
}
}
I have set up a trigger that automatically submits a custom object for approval.
Currently this triggers on insert of new records, but I need to change this to trigger after a checkbox is updated, which can happen upon insert or afteran update. this is the only criteria for the trigger.
Appreciate any help.
here is my trigger:
trigger MDFSubmitForApproval on MDF__c (after insert) {
I'm new to Apex code and wondered if someone could help me with the following scenario:
- We have sales guys who work globally on opportunities involving partners. It's hard for us to define security setting for these individuals without giving them access to all our data.
- We need to automatically update the opportunity sales team based on the partner chosen within the related list that is selected in the opportunity.
I have a list of which sales guys look after each partner opps so I assume this would need to be related to the account id for the partner orgs.
As I say I'm new to Apex, so am unsure if this is achievable?
