trigger deleteDraftTemplate on SPE_SPETemplate__c (before delete) {
    
    SPE_SPETemplate__c[] recs=new List<SPE_SPETemplate__c>();
for(SPE_SPETemplate__c rec:trigger.old)
{
  if(rec.Stage__c=='Draft')
  {
            SPE_SPETemplate__c tempSpeTemp=new SPE_SPETemplate__c(id=rec.id);

Hi Priya,

Try this,

trigger deleteDraftTemplate on SPE_SPETemplate__c (before delete)
{
      for(SPE_SPETemplate__c rec : trigger.old)
{
  if(rec.Stage__c != 'Draft')
  {
         rec.addError('You Can't delete this record');
  }
}


}

Hi Priya
  
trigger PreventDeletingsaveTemplate on SPE_SPETemplate__c (before delete) {
    
    if(Trigger.isBefore && Trigger.isDelete){
        for(SPE_SPETemplate__c mars: Trigger.old){
            if(mars.Stage__c != 'Draft')
                mars.adderror('Cannot delete this Template');
        }
    }
}

Your apporach is delete the Template if the Stage is Draft. rather think in this approach, throwing error message if User tries to delete Template if Stage is not Draft

Hope this helps!! P.S. If this answers you question, please mark it as "Best Answer" so it will help other community members too.
