Best way to check if person accounts are enabled via Salesforce Apex Code?
Hi All,
I need to be able to check if an org has Person Accounts enabled via Apex Code as part of package. What’s the best way to do this without making the package require Person Accounts be enabled in any org in which it’s installed?

Hi Tanu,
Follow these steps:
- Try to access the isPersonAccount property on an Account and catch any exception that occurs if that property is missing.
- If an exception is generated then person accounts are disabled. Otherwise they’re enabled.
- To avoid making person accounts required for the package you can assign the Account object to an sObject and use sObject.get( ‘isPersonAccount’ ) rather than accessing that property directly on the Account object.
Hope this helps you.

public class TestPersonAccount {
public static Boolean personAccountsEnabled()
{
try
{sObject testObject = new Account();
testObject.get( ‘isPersonAccount’ );
System.debug(‘Account Enabled’);
return true;
}
catch( Exception ex )
{
System.debug(‘Account Disable’);
return false;
}
}}
Please try above code, hope it would be helpful!!
Thanks!!

Hi
I find an interesting way to check Person Account is enabled or not
boolean abc = Schema.sObjectType.Account.fields.getMap().containsKey( ‘isPersonAccount’ );
system.debug(‘@@@’+abc);Hope this will minimize your code and helps you.
