The code itself doesn't give any errors, but anytime I run it Trailhead gives me this message:
"Challenge not yet complete... here's what's wrong: Executing the trigger did not work as expected. "
Here are the instructions:
For this challenge, you need to create a trigger that, before insert or update, checks for a checkbox. If the checkbox field is true, it sets the Shipping Postal Code (whose API name is ShippingPostalCode
) to be the same as the Billing Postal Code (BillingPostalCode
).
- The Apex trigger must be called
AccountAddressTrigger
. - The Account object will need a new custom checkbox that should have the Field Label 'Match Billing Address' and Field Name of
Match_Billing_Address
. The resulting API Name should beMatch_Billing_Address__c
. - With
AccountAddressTrigger
active, if an Account has a Billing Postal Code andMatch_Billing_Address__c
is true, the record should have the Shipping Postal Code set to match on insert or update.
My code:
trigger AccountAddressTrigger on Account (before insert,before update) {
for(Account a : [SELECT Id FROM Account WHERE Match_Billing_Address__c = TRUE AND BillingPostalCode != NULL])
{
a.ShippingPostalCode = a.BillingPostalCode;
update a;
}//end for
}
