I am trying to add a certain number of days onto a date field to create a due date within a Table but can't work out how to do it. I know that to add days on I can use the function DateAdd but the only way I can see how to do this is to create and update query to run and add the date on. Is there anyway that I can set the field to automatically update the due date dependent on the priority of the record e.g. immediate (1 day) standard (3 days) and request (28 Days)?
Is there a function in Access that will allow you to add business days to a date? I want to pull a date with a query and then add 5 business days to it to display in a report. Anyone know if this is possible?
I'm working on a query ("Target Date of Completion") that takes the initial date started (from Step 1 of date started) and adds the EC (Estimated Completion) which is just shown in days. This will give an EST (Estimated Start time) for the next step in date format, which I would need the new column. Also, As you can see, the piece parts all have a different amount of steps, so this calculation would need to know when it's a different part.
At work I can enter +15 in a date field and it automatically sets the date 15 days after todays date. Our companies computer is operating on a ERP system. I would like to do that in an Access database I'm designing for a friend. Any hints.
I am trying to track vegetables that I will be planting in my garden. I will plant some vegetables. I have a StartDate and HarvestDate and Estimated HarvestDate Fields. I also have a field named GrowDays. This field states how long it takes for each vegetable to mature i.e. 75 days or 58 days or 42 days etc. etc. What I want to do in a query is to automatically add the number of days from the GrowDays field to the StartDate and come up with the Estimated Harvest Date. If I plant a Tomato on April 13th and it takes 75 days to mature then I want the EstimatedHarvestDate field to reflect 6/27/2013 which is the StartDate + 75days. I am trying to figure out how to do this when the GrowDays field changes numbers. I can use this "Estimated HarvestDate: DateAdd("d",+75,[GrowDays])" except this only works if the GrowDays Field is 75. I need to be able to accomplish this no matter what the GrowDay field says.
I have a query and I need the records to display 3 working days before the 15 working day deadline.
I used the following in the criteria box below the received date field and it doesn't pull the correct number of workdays, it's pulling calendar days instead.

i have a tbl that stores items that have an expiry. in a child table i want to store the expiry. but as it is different for each item i need a way of doing this.
i thought that by having
DateAdd('m',3,Date()) in one of the fields this would work.
on click event i would like the date add to come into play but the way i am doing it comes up with an error. too few arguments.
this is what i have so far
Code: Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Set db = CurrentDb
I'm exporting a query from Access to an ASCII text file. It is automatically adding a time stamp (0:00:00) to the end of ALL of my date fields. I would like it if it didn't do this...:D
I have a date picker field in my form that is used as part of a criteria in a query. I also add it as a result field in the query being that it is appending data to a table. But when the query runs it puts weird characters into the query field with expression.
The Expression is as follows:
BillWk: [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]
My Criteria is: Between [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd] And [Forms]![Invoice Form]![WkEnd]-6
What's the formula we can use to calculate days between no of days between date job is open and today's date in a query. I am using formulat below formula but the DATE_OPEN and Today (todays date) pops us as enter parameter value. I dont want those enter parameter windows pops us. The date job is open is in a linked table and linked table is getting the information from BPCS software. The date in Liinked is in format YYYYMMDD.
Total Days: DateDiff("d",[Date_Open],[Today])
The SQL Details are below. AUNPRDF_AAA802 is a linked table and information gets updated on 12 am everyday
SELECT DateDiff("d",[Date_Open],[Today]) AS [Total Days], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAAGE AS Age, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAORD AS [Job Number], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AAWKSP AS Workshop, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AASWKT AS WorkType, AUNPRDF_AAA802.AANAME AS [Customer Name], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AANME AS [Service Admin], AUNPRDF_AAA802.AASDE1 AS Complaint,
I have a form where the user enters a date into a field (box 1). Next they select a time frame in days from a drop down (box 2). What I want is for Access to take the date entered from box 1 add the number of days selected from box 2 and place the new (later) date into box 3. From there I can run simple queries. It's for a small data base to track the recall of pacemaker patients.
I enter their appointmet (today) date 1st box and then select whether they should return in 30, 90, or 180 days for a follow up 2nd box. When I choose the interval I want a 3rd box to automatically show their next appointment due date.
I am obviously not an Access expert and I think this should be simple. But 3 cups of coffee and 2 handfuls of my own hair have taken me further from a solution. THANK YOU for looking!!
Hi one and allI am basically trying to do what another member has detailed in this threadhttp://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=77802&highlight=add+dayswhere someone has suggested another link http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=62570which the person states has solved the problem - however it seems this link is dead, perhaps as a result of the site hack.I am sure you can see my question coming like a rabbit in headlights - does anyone know how to do this?!?Basically, I want to add a certain number of days (as specified in a text box-(txtDaysToAdd)) to a date, where weekends and self defined holidays are excluded (I have already set up my tbleHolidays to enter such dates).Any ideas?Thanks in advance
I need to find the LATEST date in field Recdate that is 45 days or older in a query. I have tried <Date()-45, etc. but it returns all dates not just the last one. Does this require a range of dates to do this ? If not, how would I id the last date input ? Thanks
Hi I have 3 date fields. I am trying to work out number of days when
=[FIELD1 - FIELD2 OR FIELD3]
should do the calculation in field 4 NUMBER OF DAYS. but it comes up with date only. FIELD1 will always be filled, if field 2 is field then the number of days must be based on that. but if field2 is blank then it should be field1 - field 3. I may need a help on the formula does it need any if, else statement or not. If so can someone please help
In a query i have setup, i work out when a tenant is next due to pay their rent.
Looks like this
Tenant Last Payment Date Payment Terms Next Payment Date User1 01/07/13 Monthly 01/08/13 User2 01/07/13 Weekly 07/07/13
The next payment date is calculated using an IF statement and DateAdd in the query, so if it is weekly it adds 7 days, if it is monthly it adds 1 month.
What i am trying to do is write sub query of this one which shows which tenants are due to pay within the next 7 days.
But the access query seems to ignore the criteria I'm putting in....in the next payment date criteria i have tried specifying >Now() + 7 or >Date() +7 but neither seem to work, it just shows up every record...
I have two fields in a table, both containing dates. I would like to write a query that returns the difference between the dates in an year, month, day format (i.e. 26y 2m 3d). If that isnt possible, can the difference be returned as years,days (i.e. 26y 63d).
i am trying to run a query from a form which will bring up the no of days difference between the start and end date also on the same form. The query doesn't bring back any results can someone please guide in what i am doing wrong. Here is the query SELECT DateDiff('d',[start date],[end date]) AS [no of days] FROM [booked property] WHERE ((([booked property]![start date])=[forms]![booking]![booked property]![start date]) AND (([booked property]![end date])=[forms]![booking]![booked property]![end date]));
