Manipulating field value in before update trigger

Posted by ngabrani on 11-Sep-2015 06:51

I want to change the value of the field based upon some calculation in the before update trigger and save that value rather than saving the user entered value for the field.

Hi,

You can use Object Script trigger to update the field values by using 'Before Update' timing option.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

As you are not dealing with user entered data value, you can use Update Field Value trigger.

But this trigger will execute 'After Create|After Update' but not Before Create|Before Update as per design.
