Salesforce Apex not updating record - salesforce

I am trying to do a simple update in sandbox on a field that is in the Account Object in Salesforce but it does not seem like it is committing. I follow the basics of pulling and updating a record as stated below:
String accountId = '12345'
Account queriedAccount = [SELECT Id, Communication_Bubble__c FROM Account WHERE id = :accountId limit 1];
System.debug(queriedAccount);
// set the field i want to update
queriedAccount.Communication_Bubble__c = 'New Donor';
// update field
update queriedAccount;
// run select again to see if update went through
Account queriedAccount2 = [SELECT Id, Communication_Bubble__c FROM Account WHERE id = :accountId limit 1];
System.debug(queriedAccount2);
Looking at the logs after this piece of code is ran shows that the update went through as I was able to pull the account and it displays the Account with the updated field. Here are what both of the debugs display:
Debug1: |Debug|Account:{Id=12345} (communication bubble is null)
Debug2: |Debug|Account:{Id=12345,Communication_Bubble=New Donor}
From the above it seems like the update is working exactly how it should be. But when I go to the account in the dashboard, or pull the account with a query in the developer console that Communication Bubble field is still blank.
It seems like I am missing some sort of commit but I cant figure out what it is.

No way this compiles, did you anonymise it too much?
Communication_Bubble - actual field name is probably Communication_Bubble__c.
You query and set a field value on queriedAccount but what you actually save is another variable queriedContact?
There's low chance you actually have some code that resets the value (would have to be #future, time-based workflow etc to work but not be detected in 2nd query... But my vote goes to "you just updated wrong record"

Error in Salesforce flow: INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS_ON_CROSS_REFERENCE_ENTITY

Error detected during debug:
Create one OpportunityLineItem record where
OpportunityId = {!$Record.ConvertedOpportunityId} (null)
Product2Id = {!get_related_Product.Id} (01t5j000000I80nAAC)

Failed to create record.
Info
Error Occurred:
This error occurred when the flow tried to create records: INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS_ON_CROSS_REFERENCE_ENTITY: insufficient access rights on cross-reference id. You can look up ExceptionCode values in the SOAP API Developer Guide.
Manually or using Apex, I can add a record. The fields that I add (opportunityid,Quantity,TotalPrice,Product2id) are not read-only. I need a detailed answer. Am I missing some permission?
1 flow schema
2 trigger condition
3 get related record
4 create new record
OpportunityId = {!$Record.ConvertedOpportunityId} (null)
This looks like the opportunity doesn't exist yet (got any errors? Do you create them always or only when certain condition is met? Did it fail?). Or it exists but it just has been inserted, SF didn't manage to update the Lead with the Id yet? Maybe add entry criteria that check if the field is populated.
Lead conversion is bit nasty topic, see https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/3956/lead-conversion-trigger-order-of-execution
Actually you might be better of on SF stackexchange, more admins over there and flows are no-code solution so not a good fit for stackoverflow?

Trigger to restrict duplicate record for a particular type

I have a custom object consent and preferences which is child to account.
Requirement is to restrict duplicate record based on channel field.
foe example if i have created a consent of channel email it should throw error when i try to create second record with same email as channel.
The below is the code i have written,but it is letting me create only one record .for the second record irrespective of the channel its throwing me the error:
Trigger code:
set<string> newChannelSet = new set<string>();
set<string> dbChannelSet = new set<string>();
for(PE_ConsentPreferences__c newCon : trigger.new){
newChannelSet.add(newCon.PE_Channel__c);
}
for(PE_ConsentPreferences__c dbcon : [select id, PE_Channel__c from PE_ConsentPreferences__c where PE_Channel__c IN: newChannelSet]){
dbChannelSet.add(dbcon.PE_Channel__c);
}
for(PE_ConsentPreferences__c newConsent : trigger.new){
if(dbChannelSet.contains(newConsent.PE_Channel__c))
newConsent.addError('You are inserting Duplicate record');
}
Your trigger blocks you because you didn't filter by Account in the query. So it'll let you add 1 record of each channel type and that's all.
I recommend not doing it with code. It is going to get crazier than you think really fast.
You need to stop inserts. To do that you need to compare against values already in the database (fine) but also you should protect against mass loading with Data Loader for example. So you need to compare against other records in trigger.new. You can kind of simplify it if you move logic from before insert to after insert, you can then query everything from DB... But it's weak, it's a validation that should prevent save, it logically belongs in before. It'll waste account id, maybe some autonumbers... Not elegant.
On update you should handle update of Channel but also of Account Id (reparenting to another record!). Otherwise I'll create consent with acc1 and move it to acc2.
What about undelete scenario? I create 1 consent, delete it, create identical one and restore 1st one from Recycle Bin. If you didn't cover after undelete - boom, headshot.
Instead go with pure config route (or simple trigger), let the database handle that for you.
Make a helper text field, mark it unique.
Write a workflow / process builder / simple trigger (before insert, before update) that writes to this field combination of Account__c + ' ' + PE_Channel__c. Condition could be ISNEW() || ISCHANGED(Account__c) || ISCHANGED(PE_Channel__c)
Optionally prepare data fix to update existing records.
Job done, you can't break it now. And if you ever need to allow more combinations (3rd field) it's easy for admin to extend it. As long as you keep under 255 chars total.
Or (even better) there are duplicate matching rules ;) give them a go before you do anything custom? Maybe check https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/sales_admin_duplicate_management out.

Lightning Experience Specialist - Step 6 - Unable to complete

I am stucked in this challenge and not sure why is it not completing. Please have a look at below details.
Error Message -
Challenge Not yet complete... here's what's wrong: The Fulfillment Cancellation Automation process does not appear to be working properly. Make sure that a cancelled Fulfillment updates the Adventure Package correctly.
My Process builder is as follows:
Object: Fulfillment
Entry Criteria: [Fulfillment__c].Status__c = Cancelled AND [Fulfillment__c].Schedule_Date__c > TODAY()
Immediate Actions:
Based on [Fulfillment__c].Opportunity.OpportunityLineItems
Field Update Filter condition :
Line Item ID equals Formula [FullFillment__c].AdventurePackageId__c
Field to Update :
Sales Price equal to [Fulfillment__c].Deposit__c
I did some finding on web and have changed the below things as well but not working for me.
The Explorer__c field was set to "Required" and "What to do if the lookup record is deleted?" was set to "Don't allow deletion of the lookup record that's part of a lookup relationship.".
I updated the "Required" to false and changed "What to do if the lookup record is deleted?" to "Clear the value of this field. You can't choose this option if you make this field required."
I have unrequired the Explorer__c field on the layout too.
After all the above changes, I am still not able to complete the challenge.
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I'm getting this as well, and I think there may well be a bug in their test.
I've manually tested the processes, and it works as described. The Sales Price on the Adventure Package gets updated to the Fulfillment's Deposit amount.
Looking in the debug logs, the query clearly selects 1 record (which is what we'd expect) into a List called fullfillmentList before the code immediately fails an assertion with the message Fulfillment list is empty.
this error is showing because, you might have deactivated the previous process flow i.e Fulfillment Creation, which also should be active for completion of this step in the superbadge

Salesforce Junction Objects

To all salesforce experts i need some assistance. I have my contacts and a custom object named programs. I created a junction object using to master detail relationships with contacts and programs. I want to avoid relating the same contact to the same program. I tried triggers but I couldn't create the testing part to use it outside sandbox.
I went back to the basics and created a Unique text field. I tried to use default value but EVERYTHING i write in that crap is wrong -_-. I tried Contact__r.Email & "-" & Program__r.Name but to no avail.
I tried workflow rules with a field update but my field update NEVER runs.(Yes I did activate the workflow rule) and I didn't know what to write in my rule's code.
The workflow firing condition could be simply a formula that says true. Alternatively use "every time record is inserted". It also depends whether your master-details are set once and that's it or they will be "reparentable" (option introduced in Summer '12 I think). Maybe post a screenshot / text description of your firing condition? Also - is your unique field set to "case sensitive"?
As for the formula to populate the unique field - something like Contact__c + ' ' + Program__c (or whatever the API names of your fields are) should be OK. Don't use Contact__r.Email etc as these don't have to be unique...
You'll have to somehow fill in the uniqueness criteria for all existing records (maybe that's why you claimed it doesn't work?). If you can use Apex for data fixes - something like this should get you started.
List<Junction__c> junctions = [SELECT Contact__c, Program__c
FROM Junction__c
WHERE Unique_Text_Field__c = null
LIMIT 10000];
for(Junction__c j : junctions){
String key = String.valueOf(j.Contact__c).left(15) + ' ' + String.valueOf(j.Program__c).left(15);
j.Unique_Text_Field__c = key;
}
update junctions;
Keep rerunning it until it starts to show 0 rows processed. The Ids are cut down to 15 chars because in Apex you'd usually see full 18-char Id but workflows use 15-char versions.

VisualForce(APEX): Update record with known ID

This is an APEX code related question and is specific to a VisualForce controller class.
Question
I am trying to update a record with a known AccountId. However, when I set the ID in the sObject declaration SalesForce is appending the string "IAR" to the end of the ID!
Can someone please let me know what I am doing that is wrong and if I am going about this in the wrong way than what is the correct way to update a record from a custom method, outside of quicksave() or update().
Description
So basically, the user will come to this page with the id encoded and it will either have an id or a level. This is handled by the function decode() which takes a string; "id" / "level". I then create an Account variable "acc" which will be used to store all of the Account information before we insert or update it with the statement "insert acc;". Since, I cannot set the ID for "acc" with "acc.id = salesForceID" I have decided to set it when "acc" is created. The following APEX code occurs in the constructor when it is declaring the "acc" variable.
URL Variable Passed
/application?id=001Q000000OognA
APEX Controller Class (Abridged)
salesForceID = decode('id');
debug1 = 'salesForceID: ' + salesForceID;
acc = new Account(id = salesForceID);
debug2 = 'Account ID: ' + acc.id;
Debug Output
salesForceID: 001Q000000OognA
Account ID: 001Q000000OognAIAR
Comments
I apologise for the brevity of the code given, this is for security reasons. I am basically trying to set the ID of the acc before I insert/upsert/update it. I appreciate any explanations for why it could be appending "IAR" and or any alternate ways to update a record given an input AccountId. I do understand that if you pass the id in as a URL variable that SalesForce will automatically do this for you. However, I am passing more than one variable to the page as there are three separate use cases.
Thanks for your help.
001Q000000OognA is the "standard" 15-character Salesforce ID. 15-character ID's are case-sensitive.
001Q000000OognAIAR is the case-insensitive 18-character version of that ID.
Either one is fine. You do not need to worry about the difference. If for some reason you really need to use the 15-character version in parameters etc, you can safely truncate the last 3 digits.
