jpben Exception Handling
Hello,
I need some help with incorporating exception handling (try/catch) on my code below. I have a trigger that auto updates the stage on the Opportunity to "Feasibility", when a Feasibility (custom object) record is created. We have a validation rule on the Opportunity that all the required fields will need to be filled in before you can change the Opportunity Stage to "Feasibility". How can I update the dml error message to "Fill in all required fields on the Opportunity" so that our user doesnt see this long text.
Error: Invalid Data.
Review all error messages below to correct your data.
Apex trigger OpptyStageUpdate_Feasibility caused an unexpected exception, contact your administrator: OpptyStageUpdate_Feasibility: execution of AfterInsert caused by: System.DmlException: Update failed. First exception on row 0 with id 006J0000007V2QeIAK; first error: FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION, Field is required.: [Budget__c]: Trigger.OpptyStageUpdate_Feasibility: line 31, column 1
trigger OpptyStageUpdate_Feasibility on Feasibility__c (after insert, after update) {
// Updates the Opportunity Stage to Feasibility when Feasibility record is created
//Lists the Opportunities from Proposals that meet criteria
List<ID> feasIds = new List<ID>();
for (Feasibility__c f: Trigger.new){
if(f.Stage__c <> null){
feasIds.add(f.Opportunity__c);
}
}
//Pulls the SOQL list and updates the Oppty Stage
List<Opportunity> opptyList = [SELECT ID, StageName, Opportunity_Type__c, RecordTypeId
FROM Opportunity
WHERE ID in:feasIds];
for (Feasibility__c f: Trigger.new){
for (Opportunity opp: opptyList){
if (f.Stage__c <> 'Closed Rejected'){
opp.StageName = 'Feasibility' ;
}
}
}
update opptyList;
}
You can add error handling code to your trigger as follows:
try {
update opptyList;
} catch (DmlException ex) {
trigger.new[0].addError(ex.getDmlMessage(0));
//throw ex;
}

You can add error handling code to your trigger as follows:
try {
update opptyList;
} catch (DmlException ex) {
trigger.new[0].addError(ex.getDmlMessage(0));
//throw ex;
}
This might help other users out there. Here is my final code.
trigger OpptyStageUpdate_Feasibility on Feasibility__c (after insert) {
// Updates the Opportunity Stage to Feasibility when Feasibility record is created
//Lists the Opportunities from Feasibility that meet criteria
try {
List<ID> feasIds = new List<ID>();
for (Feasibility__c f: Trigger.new){
if(f.Stage__c <> null){
feasIds.add(f.Opportunity__c);
}
}
//Pulls the SOQL list and updates the Oppty Stage
List<Opportunity> opptyList = [SELECT ID, StageName, Opportunity_Type__c, RecordTypeId
FROM Opportunity
WHERE ID in:feasIds];
for (Feasibility__c f: Trigger.new){
for (Opportunity opp: opptyList){
if (f.Stage__c <> 'Closed Rejected'){
opp.StageName = 'Feasibility' ;
}
}
}
update opptyList;
}catch (System.DmlException e){
trigger.new[0].addError('Fill in all of the required fields on the Opportunity before creating the Feasibility');
}
}
