I have added some fields to the custom settings

phone field is added to the custom settings

custom setting Name:Order_Configuration__c

Phone :12345 - one profile

phone:456798 - another profile

Is it possible to access the different values for different profiles in custom settings using apex trigger code

You use the CustomObject.getInstance method. You can provide the Organization Id, the Profile Id, or a User Id. Using this method, you can get the specific values for each User Id or Profile Id that has a specified hierarchy value.

  • @user36188 Yes, you have to query for the profiles first if you want to compare multiple profiles.

  • @user36188 Profile[] profiles = [select id from profile where name in ('profile 1','profile 2')]; String[] values = new String[0]; for(Profile Id: profiles) values.add(Order_Configuration__c.getInstance(id)); ... approximately.
