Please update your code like below
trigger updatetaskoriginfield on Task (before insert, before update) { if(trigger.isBefore) { // please add your object Name here for Customer_participation__c String keyPrefix = Customer_participation__c.sObjectType.getDescribe().getKeyPrefix(); System.debug('PREFIX--' + keyPrefix ); for(Task tsk: trigger.new) { String strWhatId = tsk.whatId; if( strWhatId.startsWith(keyPrefix) ) // Chck record is related with Customer_participation__c only { String test=tsk.subject; set<string> a=new Set<string>{'executive','Executive'}; set<string> b=new Set<string>{'award','Award'}; List<String> lsttest=test.split(' '); for(String s: lsttest) { if(a.contains(s)) { tsk.Task_Origin__c='Executive Summary'; } else if(b.contains(s)) { tsk.Task_Origin__c='Award Notification'; } } } } } }Let us know if this will help you

I want to know that how have you created task for custom object? I have seen task object active for standard object like contact, opportunity, cases, account. but in case of custom object i dont have any idea for the same. Your answer will be appreciating.
Thanks
Shephali
You can create the task on any custom object but "Track Activities" should be checked on custom object
Please check below post for more information
1) https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewHelpDoc?id=tracking_activities_for_custom_objects.htm
2) https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewSolution?id=000004351&language=en_US
In order for a Custom Object to show in the "Related To" Lookup list for an Event or Task, the "Allow Activities" (Track Activities) check-box must be checked in the Custom Object Definition. To do this:
1. Go to Setup | Create | Objects.
2. Click Edit to modify an existing custom object.
3. Check the "Allow Activities" check-box under Optional Features.
