Hi All,

I am trying to update a field in the same object after inserting, with the new data - But the outstanding__c field is not updating.

Please check my below trigger and give me any solution for this.

Thanks in advance,

trigger feedue on Payment__c (after insert) {
for(Payment__c p:Trigger.New)
{
Payment__c c=[select due__c from payment__c where id=:p.id];
Payment__c m=[select outstanding__c from payment__c where id=:p.id];
c.due__c=m.outstanding__c=c.due__c;
update m;
}
}

Hi,

I am not able to solve and not getting any idea how to update a field the last modified value.

Example : I want to calculate "Amount Due" by subtracting the "Paid Amount" value from "Outstanding Amount". And then the "Outstanding Amount" should be updated with the new penidng number. I tried this with Work flows - filed update, but the "outstanding amount" field is getting updated after the due value is calculated and then giviing the result by deducting the new "Outstanding Amount" again .

Please help in me in this if we can do it in any other way?

Thanks in advance,

I want to count the number of digits in a phone number to restrict the number to 10 digits or some customized number only. I tried this with Len(text), but could not get it. Do we have any other validation already available for this? please let me know if there is any possibility to use count function for this.

Thsnks in advance.
