Trigger to Pull related contact's details on Task page when new task creates.
I have a requirement. Contact related to Task, I need to pull his functional role ( custom field) on Task page layout. So whenever I create or edit a Task and relate with any contact so his/her functional role ( Custom field) Value should populate automatic on Task Page field( Functional role).
Please help! How can I achieve it? I tried formula field but unable to get. I tried through trigger but it is not working. Please check my code and let me know what I am doing wrong.
Please find below code:

Please find below code:
trigger updatefunctionalrole on Task (before insert, before update) { Map<ID,String> confunrole = new Map<ID,String>(); List<Task> conTasks = new List<Task>(); for (Task e : trigger.new) { if (e.whoID!= null && (String.valueOf(e.whoID)).startsWith('003')) { if (trigger.isInsert || (trigger.isUpdate && e.WhoID != trigger.oldMap.get(e.id).WhoID)) { confunrole.put(e.whoID,''); conTasks.add(e); } } } for (contact con : [SELECT Functional_Role__c FROM contact WHERE ID IN :confunrole.keySet()]) { confunrole.put(con.id,con.Functional_Role__c); } // Update the contact functional role field on the Task with the relevant value for (Task e : trigger.new) { e.functional_role__c = confunrole.get(e.whoID); } }
Your code works perfectly for me.
Maybe drop some system.debug() statements into the control loops to see what the trigger is actually doing.
