Trigger to create task and assign to related user during quote approval process

Hi and thanks in advance.

Requirement: I need tips on a trigger to create a task and assign it to a related user on the Quote object.  It should happen when a quote enters the intial submittal.

Has anyone done this using Apex or vf?

Regards

Hi Vinit, This particular requirement cannot be met with a workflow because a task cannot be assigned to a Related User. Eric Blaxton

Why don't you need Apex trigger for this,you can create a workflow and achieve the same functionality.

How are you identifying that which user should the Task be reassigned  to??
Eric BlaxtonEric Blaxton
It is a related user on the Quote object. Eric Blaxton

You can write an after insert and after update Trigger on Quote and create a Task in it and assign it to the Related User.

Surekha, Why did you post this on my question? It seems to have nothing to do with my original question. What am I missing here. Eric Blaxton
