User Story

As a sales manager, I want to update the phone number of my contact, Mario Ruiz, and also update the industry of the account associated with him to "Technology". So, I search for the contact with the name "Mario Ruiz" and retrieve his associated account's name using a SOQL query. I then update his phone number to (415)555-1213 and his associated account's industry to "Technology". Finally, I make two separate calls to update the contact's phone number and the related account's industry field.

Code

Contact con = [SELECT Account.Name 
                          FROM Contact 
                          WHERE FirstName = 'Mario' AND LastName='Ruiz'
                          LIMIT 1];

con.Phone = '(415)555-1213';

con.Account.Industry = 'Technology';

update con;

update con.Account;
