Trigger 97: Auto-Fill Contact Phone from Account in Salesforce
In this video, we will create Trigger 97 where we automatically populate the Contact Phone number from the associated Account Phone number whenever a new Contact is created without a phone number.
This trigger ensures data consistency and avoids missing critical contact information by copying values from the parent Account. If the Contact already has a phone number, the trigger won’t overwrite it.
👉 Key points covered in this video:
Writing a before insert trigger on Contact.
Checking if the Contact’s Phone field is blank.
Copying the Phone number from Account to Contact.
Best practices in Salesforce Trigger development.
This is a real-world use case where Salesforce automation helps maintain clean and complete data between Accounts and Contacts.
