Trigger not firing- please help

Hello Everyone

Please may I have some help, I have this trigger and it is not firing. Can someone please take a look for me.

trigger updateRates on Rate_Type_del__c (after update) {
  
Set<Id> RateTypedelids = new Set<Id>();
    list <Account> newratelist = new list <Account>();
   
    for(Rate_Type_del__c rate:trigger.new){
        RateTypedelids.add(rate.id);
}
    List <Account> ratelist =[Select Id, name, Rate_Type__c, Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c, Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c from Account where Id in:RateTypedelids];
                                                 
      for(Rate_Type_del__c temprate:trigger.new){
      for(Account tempacc:ratelist){
      if(temprate.Company_del__c == tempacc.id && temprate.RecordType.Name == 'SureSwipe Base Rates' && temprate.Status__c == 'Active'){
{
    tempacc.Rate_Type__c = temprate.Rate_Type__c;
    tempacc.Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Credit_Card_Fee__c;
    tempacc.Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Debit_Card_Fee__c;
}
          }
        update newratelist;
    }

Replace 27th line with below code:

update accMap.values();

Hi Maise, 

The first thing I see is that you are trying to run a trigger on an object that has been marked for deletion.  You may need to rename your object, and the references to it from Rate_Type_del__c to Rate_Type__c in order to get that trigger to run.

Hi,

for(Rate_Type_del__c rate:trigger.new){
		RateTypedelids.add(rate.id);
	}

In above code you are creating Set of Id with "Rate_Type_del__c" Object's Id and Querying it on account object i.e
Select Id, name, Rate_Type__c, Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c, Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c from Account where Id in:RateTypedelids

so it should be like :
for(Rate_Type_del__c rate:trigger.new){
		RateTypedelids.add(rate.AccountLookupId);
	}
Replace AccountLookupId with API name of the field and remove Update statement from for loop.

If this solves your problem, kindly mark it as the best answer.

Thanks,

Hi Vatsal

I have done as recommended and its still not working. What I want to do is up[date the account screen with the details on the rate object. 

trigger updateRates on Rate_Type_del__c (after update){
  
Set<Id> RateTypedelids = new Set<Id>();
    list <Account> newratelist = new list <Account>();
   
    for(Rate_Type_del__c rate:trigger.new){
        RateTypedelids.add(rate.Company_del__c);
}
    List <Account> ratelist =[Select Id, name, Rate_Type__c, Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c, Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c from Account where Id in:RateTypedelids];
                                                 
      for(Rate_Type_del__c temprate:trigger.new){
      for(Account tempacc:ratelist){
          if(temprate.Company_del__c == tempacc.id &&temprate.RecordType.Name == 'SureSwipe Base Rates' &&temprate.Status__c == 'Active'){
{
    tempacc.Rate_Type__c = temprate.Rate_Type__c;
    tempacc.Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Credit_Card_Fee__c;
    tempacc.Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Debit_Card_Fee__c;
}
          }
      }
      }
}

Hi Ilene

The object was deleted then undeleted hence the _del on the name.

n your second code dump, I do not see a specific update call out, and your trigger variable is rate, which means the DML is not being told to update the list.  You can update it in a few ways, but this one may be the easiest, based on your current code set.

trigger updateRates on Rate_Type_del__c (after update){
 
    Set<Id> RateTypedelids = new Set<Id>();
    list <Account> newratelist = new list <Account>();
    List<Account> accountList = new List<Account>();
  
    for(Rate_Type_del__c rate : trigger.new){
         RateTypedelids.add(rate.Company_del__c);
    }

    List <Account> ratelist =[Select Id, name, Rate_Type__c, Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c, Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c from Account where Id in:RateTypedelids];
                                                
    for(temprate: trigger.new){

        for(Account tempacc:ratelist){

            if(temprate.Company_del__c == tempacc.id &&
               temprate.RecordType.Name == 'SureSwipe Base Rates' &&
               temprate.Status__c == 'Active'){

                tempacc.Rate_Type__c = temprate.Rate_Type__c;
                tempacc.Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Credit_Card_Fee__c;
                tempacc.Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Debit_Card_Fee__c;

                accountList.add(tempacc);
            }
        }
    }
    update accountList;
}

Hi Masie,

Below is the updated code:

trigger updateRates on Rate_Type_del__c (after update){
 
    Set<Id> RateTypedelids = new Set<Id>();
    Map<Id,Account> accMap = new Map<Id,Account>();
	
    for(Rate_Type_del__c rate : trigger.new){
		if(rate.Company_del__c != null){
			RateTypedelids.add(rate.Company_del__c);
		}
    }

    for(Account tempacc: [Select Id, name, Rate_Type__c, Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c, Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c from Account where Id IN: RateTypedelids]){
		if(tempacc.Id != null){
			accMap.put(tempacc.Id,tempacc);
		}
	}
	
    for(Rate_Type_del__c temprate: trigger.new){

		if(accMap.containsKey(temprate.Company_del__c) && temprate.RecordType.Name == 'SureSwipe Base Rates' && temprate.Status__c == 'Active'){
			accMap.get(temprate.Company_del__c).Rate_Type__c = temprate.Rate_Type__c;
			accMap.get(temprate.Company_del__c).Fixed_Credit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Credit_Card_Fee__c;
			accMap.get(temprate.Company_del__c).Fixed_Debit_Card_Rate__c = temprate.Number_Debit_Card_Fee__c;
		}
	}
	if(!accMap.isEmpty()){
		update accMap;
	}
}

Thanks Vatsal- I am getting the following error DML requires SObject or SObject list type: MAP&lt;Id,Account&gt;

Thanks Vatsal-  the code worked. The problem is the record type reference as soon as I removed that it was fab.
