Trigger must be associated with a job detail error while scheduling the batch job

Trigger must be associated with a job detail error while scheduling the batch job

Problem: This error occurred while scheduling the batch job using cron expression.

System.schedule('Schedule Batch Job that runs only once after 5 mins  ', '0 '+sMinute+' '+sHour+' '+sDayOfMonth+' '+sMonth+' ?'+' '+sYear, new AccountUpdatorBatchSchedular());

Solution: Notice in the above sample code, there is space after the name of the job i.e Schedule Batch Job that runs only once after 5 mins.

When I remove extra spaces,I was able to resolve the issue.

System.schedule('Schedule Batch Job that runs only once after 5 mins', '0 '+sMinute+' '+sHour+' '+sDayOfMonth+' '+sMonth+' ?'+' '+sYear, new AccountUpdatorBatchSchedular());

How to schedule a batch job to run only once after 5 mins

How to schedule a batch job to run only once after 5 mins

Assume AccountUpdatorBatchSchedular is the schedular class that schedules the batch job.

global class AccountUpdatorBatchSchedular implements schedulable {
    global void execute(SchedulableContext sc) {
        AccountUpdatorBatch b = new AccountUpdatorBatch();
        database.executebatch(b);
    }
}

AccountUpdatorBatch is the actual batch job.


Sample Code to schedule job:

// Add 5 minutes to current Time
DateTime dtCurrentTime = System.now().addminutes(5);

String sHour = '', sMinute='', sDayOfMonth='', sMonth='', sYear='';

sMinute = String.ValueOf(dtCurrentTime.minute());
sHour = String.ValueOf(dtCurrentTime.hour());
sDayOfMonth = String.ValueOf(dtCurrentTime.day());
sMonth = String.ValueOf(dtCurrentTime.month());
sYear = String.ValueOf(dtCurrentTime.year());   

System.schedule('Schedule Batch Job that runs only once after 5 mins', '0 '+sMinute+' '+sHour+' '+sDayOfMonth+' '+sMonth+' ?'+' '+sYear, new AccountUpdatorBatchSchedular());

How to determine Inbound or Outbound webservice in salesforce

Solution:Determining Inbound or outbound web service is very easy.

If the salesforce exposes SOAP or REST web service and any external system consume it to get required data from salesforce, then it is Inbound call to Salesforce.

If the salesforce consumes any external system web service to get required data to salesforce, then its Outbound Call to Salesforce.

In the Inbound Web service, Salesforce will be the publisher and external system will be consumer of web service and in Outbound web service its reverse i.e salesforce will be consumer and external system will be the publisher of web service.
