It very much helped, I wouldn’t have known were to start without your code. I’m far better at pulling things apart than at creating new things from scratch =P

I hope it helps, its definitely dated and is probably something I should revisit. Force.com has changed quite a bit since 2008 and I know this could be done more efficiently. Hope it helped with direction.

Thanks for the code Colin! I have a revised version of the trigger on my blog that uses aggregate queries and maps in order limit exceptions that might be thrown out due to governor limits.

I guess this code is not working after salesforce update, does anyone can simply provide a sample trigger with test please?
Thank you in advance

Thanks for posting your code! Being new to APEX this provided a great example. Did you ever get around to writing the Test Unit code for this by chance? I was able to take your example code and get it working for our objects, but unfortunately not skilled enough in APEX yet to write my own test units.

I’ve been trying to implement this but have been having problems with the cleaner version. I keep getting map errors : Unexpected token at line 2. I am very new to triggers and I am sure that if I were more familar with them I could probably figure this out. The first few lines of the clean code is this:
trigger rollupHoursToTimesheet on Time_Entry__c (after insert, after update, after delete) {
if(Trigger.isAfter){
Double sumTotalHours = 0;
Map TimeSheetsToUpdate = new Map();
Set TimeSheetsIDs = new Set();

The 2 place decimal doesn’t act as minutes though. This would be useful

if you entry 0.90 as one of the hours would be converted to 1.30

@CK – I plan to revisit this at some point very soon and incorporate some better bulk processing and hopefully that will include posting the test code. However, for now you will have to run it on a developer org :D
