Parse, adding relation to object during signup

Question

am attempting to associate a user with a company as they register. So, I am capturing the cony name upon registration, and I would like a column "createdby" in the midwifefirm that links a user to a company.

So, I have a register activity; realizing the Parse documentation uses CurrentUser to setup a pointer, I attempt to create the pointer in newUser.signUpInBackground(new SignUpCallback() {

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_midwife_register);

mPracticeName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.enterpracticename);
mPrimaryContact = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.primarycontactnameField);
mPracticeEmail = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.createPracticeEmailEmailfield);
mPracticePassword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.createmidwifepasswordfield);
mSignUpButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.createmidwife);


mSignUpButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        //getting string values
        final String practicename = mPracticeName.getText().toString();
        String primarycontact = mPrimaryContact.getText().toString();
        String email = mPracticeEmail.getText().toString();
        String password = mPracticePassword.getText().toString();



        primarycontact = primarycontact.trim();
        email = email.trim();
        password = password.trim();

        if (practicename.isEmpty() || primarycontact.isEmpty() || email.isEmpty() || password.isEmpty()) {
            AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MidwifeRegisterActivity.this);
            builder.setMessage(R.string.sign_up_error_message);
            builder.setTitle(R.string.signup_error_title);
            builder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.ok, null);

            AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
            dialog.show();


        } else {
            //create new user
            ParseUser newUser = new ParseUser();
            newUser.setUsername(email);
            newUser.setPassword(password);
            newUser.setEmail(email);



            newUser.put("primarycontact", primarycontact);
            newUser.put("userType", "midwife");


            mMidwiferyfirm = new ParseObject("midwifefirm");

            newUser.saveInBackground();

            mMidwiferyfirm = new ParseObject("midwifefirm");

            mMidwiferyfirm.put("practicename", practicename);
            mMidwiferyfirm.saveInBackground();

            ParseACL roleACL = new ParseACL();


            ParseRole role = new ParseRole("Midwife", roleACL);

            role.getUsers().add(newUser);


            role.saveInBackground();



            newUser.signUpInBackground(new SignUpCallback() {
                @Override
                public void done(ParseException e) {
                    if (e == null) {
                        //success

                        mMidwiferyfirm.put("ownedby", ParseUser.getCurrentUser());

                        mMidwiferyfirm.saveInBackground();

In the next activity, I want to be store more information about the company, but in the row associated with the current User:

mCreateButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

                                         @Override
                                         public void onClick(View v) {

                                              final String streetaddress = mMidwifeStreetAddress.getText().toString();
                                              final String city = mMidwifeCity.getText().toString();
                                              final String midwifestate = mMidwifeState.getText().toString();
                                              final String midwifezip = mMidwifeZip.getText().toString();
                                              final String phone = mMidwifePhone.getText().toString();






                                             mMidwifeRelation = mMidwifefirm.getString("ownedby");


                                             ParseUser currentUser = ParseUser.getCurrentUser();

                                            mUserId = currentUser.getObjectId();

                                             ParseQuery<ParseObject> query = ParseQuery.getQuery("midwifefirm");
                                            query.whereEqualTo(mMidwifeRelation, mUserId);

                                            query.findInBackground(new FindCallback<ParseObject>() {
                                                @Override
                                                public void done(List<ParseObject> list, ParseException e) {
                                                    mMidwifefirm.put("streetaddress", streetaddress);
                                                    mMidwifefirm.put("city", city);
                                                    mMidwifefirm.put("midwifestate", midwifestate);
                                                    mMidwifefirm.put("midwifezip", midwifezip);
                                                    mMidwifefirm.put("phone", phone);
                                                    mMidwifefirm.saveInBackground();


                                                }


                                            });

                                             Intent intent = new Intent(MidwifeRegistrationAddress.this, MidwifeRegistrationPhilosophyActivity.class);
                                             startActivity(intent);


                                             }







});

I don't think my way of getting the CurrentUser is working...I can't seem to get the "ownedby" field to be defined.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks so much
