Matt Blatnik 8 Relating multiple records and assigning tasks
Hi,
I have two custom objects: Library and employees. Each employee record represents information about a user in the company. One of the fields is department.
In library i publish useful articles.
How can I make salesforce search and assign tasks to employees to read a publisehd article when i select department "marketing" in the library object. Same field and value exists in employee object.
to sum up - when I publish an article for marketing I want each employee in markteing to get a task to read the article.

You have to write an apex trigger on library object like
trigger test on library__c (before insert) {
if(trigger.new.get(0).department__c !=null)
list<employ__c> listOfEmploy=[Select ID from employ__c where Department__c= :trigger.new.get(0).department__c ];
List<Task> taskToInsert = new List<Task>();
for(employ__c aa : listOfEmploy)
{
if(aa.department__c !=trigger.oldMap().get(aa.ID) )
{
Task T = new Task();
T.Type = 'Email';
T.Description = ''; //string
T.OwnerId = aa.ID; //user id
T.WhatId = ''; //record id
taskToInsert.add(T);
}
}
}
if(taskToInsert.size()>0)
insert taskToInsert;
There may be some syntax errors . But it will definately solve your problem.
Feel free to ask any query
Thanks
