Hello, I am working on this trigger where I want to update a custom date field only when certain fields on the table are changed. I am assuming that Contact and Person Account has shared fields, so how would I create this trigger? (may be 1 for Account and another for Contact?)

Thank you, a simple example would be great! :)

    Hi Chris,

    The trigger should be on Account's object, as workflow rules and trigger does not gets fired on updates to person contacts fields, also the fields being special fields present in both account and contact, it will automatically be update in the contacts object as well when you update them on the account.
