      Help me on the given Salesforce Trigger Scenario

      Posted by sajid ali on December 5, 2017 at 1:09 PM

      Scenario 1.

      1) Make two number fields on contact object Amount_X Amount_Y

      2) Make one picklist field "Type" , values ('Positive', 'Negative')

      3) Make two number fields on account Rollup_Amount_X Rollup_Amount_Y Rollup_Amount

      4) Make one trigger on contact object, which will do following: --> Sum all child of contact's field "Amount_X" and store in parent account's "Rollup_Amount_X" Where Type is "Positive" --> Sum all child of contact's field "Amount_Y" and store in parent account's "Rollup_Amount_Y" Where Type is "Negative" --> Sum all child of contact's field "Amount_X" + "Amount_Y" and store in parent account's "Rollup_Amount"

      5) Make trigger as bulk / Test class

      Hi Sajid,

      You can have a trigger something like --

      trigger calculateAmount on Contact(after update,after insert){

      set<Id> idList = new set<Id>();
      List<Account> accList = new List<Account>();
      for(Contact con: Trigger.new){

      idList.add(con.AccountId);
      }
      List<Account> accList = [Select Id,Rollup_Amount_X__c,Rollup_Amount_Y__c (Select Id,Amount_X__c, Amount_Y__c, Type__c from Contacts) from Account where Id in:idList];

      for(Account acc: accList){
      Integer amountx=0;
      Integer amounty=0;
      for(Contact con: acc.Contacts){

      if(con.Type__c=='Positive'){
      amountx += con.Amount_X__c;
      }else{

      amounty += con.Amount_Y__c;
      }
      }
      acc.Rollup_Amount_X__c = amountx;
      acc.Rollup_Amount_Y__c = amounty;
      accList.add(acc)
      }

      update accList;
      }

      Hope this helps.

      Thanks,
      Subhendu

      Hey sajid,

      trigger sumcontact on Contact (after insert , after update) {
      list<account> updateacc = new list<account>();
      set<id> aid = new set<id>();
      for(contact con : trigger.new)
      {
      aid.add(con.accountid);
      }
      list<account> acclist =[select id , name,Rollup_Amount__c ,(select id, name,Amount_X__c,Type__c ,Amount_Y__c from contacts ), Rollup_Amount_X__c ,Rollup_Amount_Y__c from account where id in : aid];
      for(account acc : acclist)
      {
      decimal amountx =0.0;
      decimal amounty =0.0;
      decimal totalsum ;
      for(contact con:acc.contacts)
      {
      if(con.Type__c == 'positive')
      {
      amountx += con.Amount_X__c;
      acc.Rollup_Amount_X__c = amountx;
      }
      else{
      amounty += con.Amount_Y__c;
      acc.Rollup_Amount_Y__c = amounty;
      }
      }
      totalsum = amountx + amounty ;
      acc.Rollup_Amount__c = totalsum ;
      updateacc.add(acc);
      }
      update updateacc;
      }

      Hope this help for others.

      Thanks
