Hi,

Greetings to you!

Please try the below code, I have tested in my org and it is working fine. Kindly modify the code as per your requirement.
  
trigger createOpportunity on Account (after insert) {

List<Opportunity> oppsToUpdate = new List<Opportunity>();

for(Account ac : Trigger.new) {

    // here is where you check if opportunity that is being inserted
    //meets the criteria
    if (ac.Status__c == 'Completed') {

        Opportunity o = new Opportunity ();

        o.AccountId=ac.Id;
        o.StageName = 'Closed Won'; 
        o.CloseDate = Date.today();   
        o.Name = 'Opp';

        oppsToUpdate.add(o);
    }

}

    if(oppsToUpdate.size()>0){
        insert oppsToUpdate; 
    }
}

I hope it helps you.

Kindly let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future. It will help to keep this community clean.

You no need to use the trigger for this one .. You can do it by using the process builder ..
