Averaging In Queries

Nov 5, 2007

Not sure if this belongs in Queries/Form/Reports because it has to do with calculating formulas within all of the above but here goes anyway:

1- I've collected data that is entered by week number via a form.
2- The data utilizes fields that are to be used in calculating formulas, which I am familiar with.
3- I WANT to average the most recent 2-x weeks, (primarily, I will use the most recent 3 but would like the ability to calculate any given number), of the CALCULATED FORMULAS mentioned above to be used in reports/queries.
4- In other words for example, field a/ field b = X for one given week. Now I want to know the average of field a/ field b for the most recent x weeks.

Is there a way to perform this action? If so, can anyone help me on completing it?

Thanks,
Doug

Is Conditional Averaging Possible?

Aug 19, 2006

I have the following situation:

1. A Homeroom table which includes student id, academic year, and homeroom.
2. A Student Grades table which includes student id (linked to Homeroom table), term, academic year, progress grade (15 pts), and progress grade (A-F).

The contents of these tables are imported from excel, and that works fine except for one thing: in order to keep the field [progress grade (15 pts)] numeric, I had to put a 0.0 as a grade for any student who got an "I" (Incomplete) or "N/A" as his or her progress grade.

The problem arises when I want to produce an average progress grade for the student for that given term/year. How do I not include the 0.0's of students who got I's or N/A's?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Query Averaging Help Needed

Jun 7, 2007

Ok, here's the scoop. I have the following record setup for tracking shipments:

[Shipment_ID_#], [Date_Loaded],[primary_silo], [secondary_silo], [2_silos]

I need to retrieve average values from another table for certain chemistry values based on the [Date_Loaded] and whether or not one or two silos were used when loading the shipment (as indicated by the [2_silos] checkbox).

Scenario #1 - one silo

I need average values of the last four samples based on the [date_Loaded] and the appropriate silo.

Scenario #2 - two silos

I need average values of the last two samples from each silo based on the [date_loaded], [primary_silo], and [secondary_silo].

Would anyone have any thoughts on this? I've tried crosstab and select queries, but I can't get anything to work.

My ultimate goal is to have a form where users select the shipment and the appropriate chemistry averages automatically populate the data fields.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg

Numerous Invoices On Orders - Averaging By Chronology

Nov 15, 2006

We have a billing scheme in which we partial-bill ceratain customers based on certain events: 30% when they sign the contract, 30% a number of days later, 30% when we ship the goods and the last 10% upon installation. This is a common process, known in many indistries as 'progress billing.'

What I am trying to do is compare the collection performance on the invoices based upon which trigger sent them. For example, I'd like to find the average and standard deviation (plus some percentiles) of the time it takes to collect invoices that are sent... when we ship, let's say.

I have a table that shows order number, invoice number, invoice date, amount and payment date. So, I can have the order number show up to 4 times with a chronology of invoice dates.

My question is this: How do I group for analysis all the FIRST invoices, the SECOND ones, etc...?

Thanks for any help! I can do this in excel... but I was given this extract of 100000+ lines, and hope to do it all in Access. Thanks again.

Averaging Date/time Fields With A Query

Apr 15, 2008

I have a table in which each record includes a field showing the time that an event started and then another field which stores "how long did it take", these two fields are both defined as a short Time. I then have a query that runs through the "how long did it take" fields to produce an average time for the whole sequence of events. Two problems:

1. The average comes out as a decimal like 39553.367942 instead of several hours and minutes.

2. When I try to access this value using DLookup on a form I get "#error"

Any suggestions?

thanks

Tables :: Averaging - Excluding Zeros And Nulls

Sep 16, 2014

I'm using Access 2010 and I'm a novice with databases.I have a table that contains water flow readings taken 4 times a day from multiple wells. I am trying to create a select query that will generate the daily average of the 4 flow readings.

HoleID.....Date....Flow1....Flow2....Flow3....Flow 4....Average
1111.....9-8-14.......0.........null.........7..........4......
1111.....9-9-14.......0.........null.........9..........3......
2222.....9-8-14.......0.........null.........10........7......

Also, my table also has several 0 values and NULLS meaning the well was turned off - I want to exclude the zeros and nulls when I average. How to average these numbers? Do I need to restructure my table?

Tables :: Averaging Calculated Fields While One Field Is Blank

Feb 5, 2015

Access 2010 database.

I am trying to get an average from several numbered fields, which some may occasionally be blank.

=Nz([JanUS],0)+Nz([FebUs],0)+Nz([MarUS],0)

I get an error message that says "The expression =Nz([JanUS],0)+Nz([FebUs],0)+Nz([MarUS],0) cannot be used in a calculated column. This is a hypothetical expression being used.

The real expression is ...

([GC A1 - 2]+[GC B1 - 2]+[GC C1 - 2]+[GC D1 - 2]+[GC E1 - 2]+[GC A2 - 2]+[GC B2 - 2]+[GC C2 - 2]+[GC D2 - 2]+[GC E2 - 2])/10

This expression works great until a field is left blank, and then the average box is left blank.

The fields I am trying to add are Long Integer. Would that affect it?

Queries :: Unable To Open Or Design Queries From Older Access Files

Jan 1, 2014

Im trying to work on an db in Access 2007 that was migrated from Access 2003 (in fact its been migrated several times starting from Access 97). It executes and runs with no problems in both versions.
The problem is when trying to open some queries (not all) - Access is unable to open the query in design mode and gives me this error :

" is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long.

However, as I cant open it - I cant check it. Im pretty sure none of the fields have invalid characters (they do have spaces) and Im not sure how long is too long....

Queries :: Running Multiple Queries To 1 Excel File With Different Tabs For Each Query

Jul 18, 2013

I'm using Access 2003 and excel 2003.

We currently manually run 5 different queries then copy and paste this data into 5 separate tabs on 1 workbook, I'm trying to automate some of this process if possible.

I am trying to use the 'transferspreadsheet' action within a macro to run a query and post it into a template excel file, using this code:

Trasfer Type Export
Spreadsheet Type Excel 8-10
Table Name (query Name)
FIle Name (FIle location)
Has field names No
Range Blank
----
This does seem to work and puts the data on a new tab on the specified workbook.

However I have a few questions:

1. Can you specify which query gets put onto which tab in excel? The tabs have different fixed names.

2. Can you specify which Cell the data gets pasted into to? As each tab has a set of headers and titles which need to remain.i.e would need to get query 1 to start in cell A4.

3. How would you expand the above out so that it runs all 5 queries, would you just add in multiple transfer spreadsheet actions in the same macro?

Queries :: Method For Combining Crosstab Queries With Same Criteria From Multiple Fields?

Dec 2, 2014

I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?

QUERY1

Code:
TRANSFORM
IIf(Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT) Is Null,0,Count(PT_LEVEL.UNIT)) AS CountOfUNIT
SELECT
PT_LEVEL.INF_YEAR,
PT_LEVEL.INF_MONTH,
PT_LEVEL.UNIT

[code]...

Queries :: Joining 3 Queries And Displaying Results In Separate Columns

Jul 31, 2013

I have 3 queries named Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth, Mech Final Equipment 6 Mth, and Mech Historical Final Equipment.They all have two fields-Final equipment and Sum of Sum of Down (calculating the number of minutes each piece of equipment was down in the time period selected).

My ultimate goal is to join the three queries to display a pivot chart that uses the Final Equipment as the category field and 3 Mth, 6Mth, and Historical as seperate data fields.What I have is a join query (Which I have named Mech Final Equipment H63 Joined)

Using this SQL:

Code:

SELECT DISTINCTROW [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment], Sum([Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Sum Of Down]) AS Duration
FROM [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth]
GROUP BY [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment]
UNION

[code]...

Which returns a table that looks like this:

Final Equipment, Duration

Ancillary Equipment, 225
Ancillary Equipment, 401
Ancillary Equipment, 1787
Brush Unit , 1252
Brush Unit , 2519
Brush Unit , 8004

And so on.What I need the table to look like is this

Final Equipment, 3 Mth, 6 Mth, Historical

Ancillary Equipment, 225, 401, 1787
Brush Unit, 1252, 2519, 8004

And so on, like a cross tab.I tried to do a crosstab query but I don't have enough fields.

Queries :: Adding Calculations To Queries Based On Columns In Query

Feb 18, 2014

I am trying to add calculations to queries based on columns in the query... it seems to randomly expect 'Expression' or 'Group by' as column types, and Im having to create 3 sets of queries following on from each other to de-dupe data and allow filters on calculated values.

Also I've got a function which turns a date into a quarterly cohort, e.g. Oct 2013 -> 20134. I use ot on a lot of dates. I created a VBA function, CohortQ used as follows in queries:

Cohort: IIf Year([InputDate]) < 1990 or Year([InputDate]) > 2020, 0 CohortQ([InputDate]))

In the VBA, InputDate is defined as a date

Code:
Function CohortQ(InputDate As Date) As Integer
If InputDate = 0 Then
CohortQ = 0
Exit Function
End If

[Code] .....

But when I run it on a date field, it gives me a data mismatch error. I can't step through as it's working on 600K rows.
If I put the function into the query,

Cohort: IIf Year([InputDate]) < 1990 or Year([InputDate]) > 2020, 0 Year([InputDate])*10+DatePart("q",[InputDate]))

it works.

Queries :: Access 2007 / 2010 - Combining Two Queries Into One?

Jan 24, 2014

I have two queries, one base upon the other. I would like to combine them (If Possible) into one query so I can embed them into a form or report. I have tried without success at finding the answer on the forum as well as searching the web.

The table lists employee numbers and dates they worked. I need a count of how many employees worked each year, based upon the paycheck date, not the actual date worked. Pay check dates are two weeks apart. An extreme example, is the first pay check date of 2010 was on 1/1/2010, but all the days worked were in 2009, this would have to be included in 2010 not 2009(See the query for further date calculation understanding). Anyway, the date calculations are not the issue here.

I only have one table, so if I am not mistaken, I can't use the WHERE (SELECT... JOIN) feature. I also was unsuccessful at using SQL DISTINCT.

I am running ACCESS 2010 Tables are ACCESS 2007.

OS is Windows 7 Ultimate.

I have included a same database with the queries. qryEmployeesAnually2 is the results I am trying to achieve.

Queries :: Calculated Field - Top 50 Queries Setting Not Working

Sep 24, 2013

I have a query which returns a calculated percent. I have ordered that in descending order, and now want to see the top 50. So (In Access 2010) I entered 50 into 'Return'. But it returns all of the records!

Is this because pct is a calculated field? How can I correct this? The SQL seems to be correct.

Code:

SELECT TOP 50 HeciFail1.POHECI, HeciFail1.POQTY, HeciFail1.FAILQTY, IIf(Nz([FAILQTY])>0,Round(100/([POQTY]/[FAILQTY]),0),0) AS PCT
FROM HeciFail1
ORDER BY IIf(Nz([FAILQTY])>0,Round(100/([POQTY]/[FAILQTY]),0),0) DESC;

Queries :: Combining Data Results From Multiple Queries

Sep 30, 2014

I am working on a report that has some special characteristics.

Let's say I have a list of groups of Vendors in a table, complete with VendorID. I have 3 other tables that use the VendorID: Complaints, Complements, and Terminations.

Each of these tables has a date that the Complaint, Complement, and Termination notice was received.

Every Fiscal Quarter, a report is pulled that looks back over the 4 preceding quarters to determine if a 5% threshold has been crossed by any of the vendor-groups in regards to the amount of Complaints they received.

The equation used for that is : (complaints/vendors_in_group)*100

It is imperative that the information has the current fiscal year and fiscal month (which I am tracking with functions from MS website), and I need to be able to store the information attached to the fiscal year and month.So when a user goes to the form and inputs the desired Fiscal Year and Fiscal Month, the database can display the 4 previous quarters of information...split into Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4.

What I would like to have happen is to be able to have one table where the information is stored, quarterly, so that it can be retrieved for the report.

Questions:
1. Is it possible to have one line, per VendorID, that has the total number of Complements, Complaints, and Terminations, as well as the threshold percent stored in a table? Right now, I am getting LOTS of duplicates and blank lines when I try to put them all together. It has the right data, but takes about 10 rows per VendorID.

2. It is very important that the total number of Vendors in a group be captured on that quarterly report, so maintaining that number, in the same table, is essential and must be tied to the VendorID.

3. I have looked at Union Queries and Crosstabs, but I just dont know enough about them to make it work.

Queries :: Combine Two Queries Result Of Second Query In Another Column

Mar 15, 2014

i I have two queries.. What i'm hoping is to combine the result into one query but not in one column only but instead the result of the second query should be beside the first query.. The result of the second query should be added as a new column.

First Query

SELECT tbl_uSers.UserName, Count(tbl_rEceived_eMail.EntryID) AS eMailReceived
FROM tbl_rEceived_eMail INNER JOIN tbl_uSers ON tbl_rEceived_eMail.UseriD = tbl_uSers.UseriD
GROUP BY tbl_uSers.UserName;

Second Query

SELECT tbl_uSers.UserName, Count(tbl_rEceived_eMail.EntryID) AS eMailProcessed
FROM tbl_rEceived_eMail INNER JOIN tbl_uSers ON tbl_rEceived_eMail.UseriD = tbl_uSers.UseriD
GROUP BY tbl_uSers.UserName, tbl_rEceived_eMail.ProcessedYN
HAVING (((tbl_rEceived_eMail.ProcessedYN)="Y"));

Firstly is do the results need to match within a union query? I mean they have no relationship what so ever Im just trying to populate this combo with the same results.

Secondly is there a better way to do it? 2 of the select queries query a linked SQL table and the third is a local table. All of the select queries work on their own.

Queries :: Access Multiple Queries Run With Date Parameter

Jun 19, 2015

I have 5 queries that I am running. The first query has the date range parameters set in the field area that I need to run and each additional create table query is based off the results of the previous query.

1. Which is better to use to run all of the queries in one simple step? A macro or a form? I am exporting the final table to excel so that I can make some additional adjustments off of it.

2. How would I setup the date range parameters for the first query if I were to use a macro without going into the query itself and updating the date field? I tried setting up a macro to run the queries by using the OpenQuery action for each of the 5 queries, but I cannot figure out how to do the date range.

Queries :: Report Or Macro To Run Multiple Queries Using Same Parameters?

Aug 9, 2013

So I run cash flow for a business, and we export data from Oracle and insert it into an access database. I have to run about 25 queries, entering in the same parameters for each. We number each week of the year. So for say the first week in January, I would run the first query and it asks: Beginning Week, I enter in 1, then another paramter value asks me the ending week. I have to enter in these parameters for each of the 25 or so queries, and it becomes quite irritating. Each query has a number of columns, but I am only interested in obtaining the sum of one of the columns, titled Distribution amount. So I am looking for something that will run each of my specified queries, then spit out the total of the distribution column for each in a table like.

Query 1: Total Distribution
Query 2: Total Distribution
etc....

Is there anything that would allow me to do this, with entering in the week parameter once, say week 1 start, week 1 end. and it use those same parameters for each query?

I have lots of calculated that rely on other calculated fields. When I need to Sum all of the calculated fields in one field I must create a new query. I currently have a QuotationID, PartID, and MetalID all linked together. The first of the calculations are done per Metal, and these are working fine. I run into a problem when the calculations need to be done by part. My Queries are creating a record for every Metal and this is throwing all of my numbers off.
