VRK Trigger: after create record in custom object , create Task under contact object
Hi all,
scenario : i have custom object name : 'Travel' and fileds are firstname_c,lastName_c,age_c, dob_c..
third party will send data to Travel object .
so my requirement is , when record created in Travel object , immediatly Task created under contact object and update fields firstname_c,lastName_c,age_c, dob_c. and status is Completed.

It is not listed above, but do you have a lookup field on your custom object to the Contact object?
If not, how will you know which contact to create a task for?
If you do have this lookup relationship, you could run your trigger to after create, perfrom a SOQL search to find the matching contact if one exists, and if not create one using the date you have (although you may want to start grabbing email and phone number for this process) and in that same create call after your contact has been retrived or created, you can then create your task and assign to the contact you just created or found.
Hope that makes sense, and if I am completely off, please provide some more information around your request so that we cna help further.

thanks for your response...
let me explain clear with my requirement.....
i have custom object ivr_journey and created fields of Seq_Member_ID__c,Caller_ID__c,Start_Date_Time__c,End_Date_Time__c,Date_of_Birth__c.... and IVR_Journey__c(lookup field on Contact).
and i created same fields under contact---> openActivities( under IVR Record Type)
Now, my requirement is , when record created in custom object 'ivr_journey' , immediatly task created in Contact --->Activity History with update fields Seq_Member_ID__c,Caller_ID__c,Start_Date_Time__c,End_Date_Time__c,Date_of_Birth__c.....
for example:
Allen created record in 'IVR_Journey' with details of 11111(seq_member_id), 22222(caller_id), 2018-03-01(start_date), 2018-05-01(end_date), 1989-02-01(date_of_birth), then immediatly activity history will be created and update same details for the Contact 'Allen'.
can you pls provide sample data for this....Thanks
