Trigger to update field in two unrelated objects

On a lead record , I have created custom button (ASSIGN) which creates new record in different object ( Partner Id) . There is auto generated field in partner ID object calle NAME (standard field) . I want as soon as user clicks on ASSIGN and new record is created , it should copy that NAME value  in XL_Partner_Id__c on lead object.. I am not sure if this functionality can be achieved bu writing javascript custom button . Therefore , I am trying with trigger. it is giving me error :

Variable does not exist: partid.Name

 

trigger updateelitepartnerid on Partner_Id__c (before insert, before update){

List<ID> LeadIds = New List<ID>();

for(Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new){
if(partid.Name != null){
LeadIds.add(partid.Lead);
}
}

List<Lead> leadlist = [SELECT id,  XL_Partner_Id__c FROM Lead WHERE id in :LeadIds];
for(integer i = 0 ; i < leadlist.size(); i++){
leadlist[i].XL_Partner_Id__c= partid.Name ;

}

update leadlist;
}

this is the error I am getting:

Replace it with LeadId or Lead__c what ever the API is.
sammy9099sammy9099

hey , 

 

Lead is standard object . I cannot append __c or Id. Even If I append , it is giviving me the same error.
Naidu PothiniNaidu Pothini

Look for the API name of the lead field on the Partner_Id__c object. and replace it with it.

 

so  if Lead_API_Name is the API Name of Lead field on the Partner_Id__c object then it should be like...

 

LeadIds.add(partid.Lead_API_NAME);
sammy9099sammy9099

I think , I am not able to depict the the problem clearly. But , there is no field called "lead " on the object "Partner_Id"
Naidu PothiniNaidu Pothini

then how are you trying to bring the Lead Ids from the Partner_Id__c records?

 

for(Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
	{
		if(partid.Name != null)
		{
			LeadIds.add(partid.Lead);
		}
	}

Hi , 

 

Thats one problems , I am facing in this scenario . Since , these two objects are not related to each other. I don't have any idea how to achieve this functionality . Is there anyway  to achieve this ? I just want when user clicks the SSIGN button lead record it should create a new record in Partner_Id object. When the new record is created , the auto generated number should be copied to Tx_Partner_Id field. 
sammy9099sammy9099

Hi Naidu , 

 

I have created a lookuop field on Lead called Partner_Gen_Id__c  to object Partner_Id__c .  I was wondering if the value in the Partner ID field ( API name : Name) on Partner_Id__c object can populate the the same value in look up field on Lead object ?  

below is your code is not showing any error but it the trigger is also not updating the value.

 

trigger updateelitepartnerid on Partner_Id__c (before insert)
{
List<ID> LeadIds = New List<ID>();

for(Elite_Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
{
if(partid.Name != null)
{
LeadIds.add(partid.Name);
}
}

Map<Id, Lead> leadMap = new Map<Id, Lead>([SELECT Id, Partner_Gen_Id__c FROM Lead WHERE Id IN :LeadIds]);

for(Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
{
if(partid.Name != null)
{
Lead Ld = leadMap.get(partId.Name);
Ld..Partner_Gen_Id__c= partid.Name;

leadMap.put(partId.Name, Ld);
}
}

update leadMap.values();


}

 
Naidu PothiniNaidu Pothini

You should create the lookup field on the Partner_Id__c object instead of lead object, so you can have a lead id for the Partner_Id__c records. Then this code will work fine... but you still need to chage this part

 

trigger updateelitepartnerid on Partner_Id__c (before insert)
{
    List<ID> LeadIds = New List<ID>();

    for(Elite_Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
    {
        if(partid.Name != null)
        {
            LeadIds.add(partid.Lookup Id for the Lead on the Partner_Id__c object);
    }
}

 
sammy9099sammy9099

Hey Naidu , 

 

I created a lookup field on Partner Id object , namely , lookup_field__c. I made all the modifications in the code. It is not giving any error, but , it is also not updating Elite_Id__c field on Lead with NAME field value on Partner_Id__C object. Below is the modified code. your help will be highly appreciated.

 

trigger updateelitepartnerid on Partner_Id__c (before insert)
{
List<ID> LeadIds = New List<ID>();

for(Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
{
if(partid.Name != null)
{
LeadIds.add(partid.lookup_field__c);
}
}

Map<Id, Lead> leadMap = new Map<Id, Lead>([SELECT Id, Elite_Id__c FROM Lead WHERE Id IN :LeadIds]);

for(Partner_Id__c partid : Trigger.new)
{
if(partid.Name != null)
{
Lead Ld = leadMap.get(partId.Name);
Ld.Elite_Id__c= partid.Name;

leadMap.put(partId.Name, Ld);
}
}

update leadMap.values();


}

	}
	update leadMap.values();
}

 try this.

Hi , 

 

It is still not updating the field.

 can you provide the debug for this code?

 You dont have a lead Id to this Partner_Id__c record and so it would not update any lead... is this a valid case?
sammy9099sammy9099

But , In the lookup_field_c , I am selecting a lead. I don't know how it is showing NULL.
