Creating Database To Manage Expiration Dates Of Medications

May 6, 2014

I am trying to create a database to analyze expiration dates of multiple products.

Let me lay out what I am trying to accomplish.

I have 5 ambulances, each ambulance has the same quantity of medications on it. There are three separate locations medications are stored on each truck. Each month I need to be able to update expiration dates, query what medications will expire by a set date and where exactly they are located.

SO here is the structure as I see it.

Ambulance 1 contains, a drug drawer with approximately 30 different medications, a trauma bag with about 10 different medications, and a blood glucose kit with 2 different medications. Now some of medications are repeated in the different locations, but have different quantities. The medications will never all have the same expiration date, and medication 1 might have 8 vials, where medication 2 may have 4 vials. I would like my form to be dynamic based on the inventory level of the medications. That way if we decide to keep 10 vials instead of 8 the form will then require the 2 extra data points.

The tables I have created so far...

table 1 lists all the ambulances
table 2 lists medications in the drug drawer and the inventory level
table 3 lists medications in the trauma bag and the inventory level
table 4 lists medications in the blood glucose kit and the inventory level

I need to create a table to store my expiration dates for each of the locations in each of the ambulances.

I need to create a form to simplify the entry of the data into those tables and I want the form and table to be dynamic to the inventory level.

Queries :: Display Expiration Dates For Next 30 Days

Nov 13, 2014

My database keeps track of training for employees, some of which expires after a period of time, which is in the tables. I need to create a query that displays only the employees and the training that expires during the next 30 days. I have a query that displays the expiration date (this field uses DateAdd and adds the expiration term to the date the employee completed the training) I am trying to add a criteria to this field. I found <=Date()+30 in my searches but that displays all of the records from 12/14 and back. I have tried all kinds of versions of this (obviously, not the correct one) and either get all records or none. (Yes there are records in the database that fall within the the period I am trying to display - that is something that I have been known to forget)

Is it because I am using criteria in a field that is based on DateAdd or what would be the correct criteria for this?

Queries :: Expiration Date - Older Than/ New Than With Dates

Nov 27, 2013

I've built an an update query that updates a Yes/No field "Expired?" to "Yes" if the expiration date has passed i.e. if the current date is newer than the expiration date. I thought this would translate into the current date being greater than the expiration date?

UPDATE Alert
SET Alert.[Expired?] = 'Yes'
WHERE Alert.Current_Date>Alert.Expiration_Date;

When I run this, it identifies the records to be updated, but then stops updating the fields due to "a conversion failure."

Queries :: IIF Statement To Calculate Expiration Dates Within Query

Jun 15, 2015

I'm trying to build a query with an iif statement to calculate expiration dates within a query. For some reason what i'm trying to do is not working as expected.

Here's the situation. Every employees with an exception of two employees in the company has an expiration 2 years after the class took place. The two exceptions are the certified instructors who's training certification is good for three years.

I've created a query with the employeeid, training subject, and maxoftraining date.

I'm trying to write an if statement to give me the expiration date based on the above information. Here's what I have so far; however its not calculating based on the criteria.

Expiration: IIf([tblemployee]![EmpID]=1 Or 2,DateAdd("yyyy",3,[maxoftrainingdate]),DateAdd("yyyy",2,[maxoftrainingdate]))

At this point in time, all "expiration" dates are showing + 3 years rather than just the Employee ID's 1 and 2 and the rest +2 years.

MS Access Query Help. Expression For Calculating Multiple Expiration Dates.

Feb 28, 2008

Hi everyone
I'm a very very new access user so many apologies in advance for when I have no idea what I"m talking about.

I'm working on creating a report that will display multiple expiration dates. Currently I have an employee database, not created by me, that has all of our employees professional licenses listed.

Prof license, auto license, liability, etc.

I want to create a report that will tell me what has already expired or will expire in the next 30 days.

I did use this
Between DateAdd("d",-30,Date()) and Date() and it is bringing back info up to 2009. which isn't what I need. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here.

I want anything that has expired regardless of the date from today, before today, and 30 days from today but I don't care about anything more than 30 days from today's date.

I noticed that when I looked at the existing database that the fields are set as text fields. I tried to change them to dates and it gave me a "deleting 106" records error message. Yikes!

Any help would be appreciated. I don't really understand expressions and I don't understand if I'm supposed to put the actual date in parentheses or what. Please pardon my ignorance.

Many many thanks.

Can Programmer Install A Database Expiration

Nov 27, 2006

I had some work done on my Database a few weeks ago and it works great.

I just got an email from the guy who did the work and he wants me to pay him more money....he said he forgot to bill me for 6 hours.

I told him I didn't think that was fair and wasn't really willing to pay for more hours....he then said he never sent the "non-expiry" versions of the databases.....he also said I have 15 days left until they expire.

Considering I done additional work on them I was wondering if this is possible?

Bruce

P.S. I hate being taken advantage of.....he was really good to work with but now he's trying to rob me.

General :: Creating A Database For Creating Quotations

May 20, 2015

I am creating a database for creating quotations. The quotation number is generated using the date, for example the first quote today would be quote number "05202015-1" because it is the first one today. The next quote today would be quote number "05202015-2" and so on. Is there a way to make access automatically generate these quote numbers based on the date?

General :: Creating Pop Up Based On Conflicting Dates

Nov 12, 2014

- I currently have a table that is labeled WorkSchedule. I then Created a query called WorkSchedule Query.

- The column labels are as follows (listed from right to left): Project, Event (something inside of the project), Employee1, Employee2, StartDate, EndDate

- I created a split form that shows each record.

- On each record I made the employee1, and employee2 as a drop down box that allows you to pick from all employees.

*MY QUESTION*

How do I make a pop up form appear when there is a conflicting date based on the employee I picked?

For example: If I had assigned Rebecca to an event that went on from 11/12/2014 - 11/14/2014. Then I tried to assign her to another event from 11/13/2104-11/15/2014. I want a pop up message saying that these dates conflict.

30 Day Expiration..... Baxter Help!!!

May 25, 2004

Bax can you take a look at the attached zip which is a VERY small sample database with the VB Code to make it expire in 30 days. It is pretty cool, you can not even change the system date on your computer because this will pick it up and give you an error message and not let you open the db. I can not get this thing to work with my database and I know I must just be missing something. It is real simple, 1 table, 1 Code and 1 autoexec macro.


I am a novice using VB and though I understand this code somewhat I am still missing something. I know you are good at this stuff and thought maybe you could help.

Thanks buddy.

General :: Using Access To Manage A Folder In Outlook?

Mar 11, 2014

My manager wants to be able to implement a kind of punch card system for managing staff time. I'm thinking we could make a database that links to a folder in Outlook. Staff will be able to send an email to the inbox saying that they are, for example, going on a break at 10:50, and then another at 11:05 saying they have returned and are back to work.

This would probably add up to around 500 emails per day with the number of staff we have, so I don't want to have to keep all the emails to be able to add up break times etc.

I'll be extracting the timestamps, name, break description etc from the email and storing them in another table. What I would like to know is whether Access would then be able to delete the email from the inbox (or modify it in some way to reflect it has been accounted for), or whether this would have to be a manual task?

Automating Expiration Date (and A Few Other Things)

Aug 6, 2007

Good morning to everyone.
I am hoping that you will be able to help me with a table that I am working on. I have almost no experience with access, so I am useless when it comes to this.

I have attached a condensed version of the database that I am working on (removed everything except the one table that I am working on) so that you can see and edit what I am working on.

The requirements are simply this.
-If "Status" = 'new inquiry' and has not been update in 6 months, automatically changes to 'inactive' and "probability of order" automatically changes to 0%

-"Initial Inquiry Date" is set to the date the Inquiry was added to the table (but user has ability to change it manually)

-*bonus* If ship quarter has passed todays quarter then change "Status" to 'inactive'.

I hope I have attached enough for everyone to be able to help.
Thank you very much in advance, I really appreciate it. :)

Expiration Date Field Update Thingy

Feb 9, 2005

Hello everyone.. I'm new :).

I'm working on a school database project and I am developing a Gym subscription/registration system.

Basically, once a user enters his/her personal info, they are taken to a second form where they can enter the subscription plan type (there are three plans).

Now, this is what I'm stuck on.. When a user enters a subscription start_date, I want the next field 'Exp._Date' to update to a year later, automatically.

So for example, if you enter 09/02/2005 in the start_date field, then the next field would automatically be filled with 09/02/2006.

Is it possible? And more importantly, how? I'm fairly new to DB's so please lay it in laymens ;).

Thanks guys.

PS: A screenshot of the form is located below:

General :: Unbound Main Form - Manage Items In A List Box

Feb 20, 2014

I have a list box on an unbound main form, which contains a rowsource consisting of files in a certain folder. The listbox is unbound

when I change an item in a subform, the listbox should update to show different items from the same folder.

Now it is updating correctly, so the rowsource appears to be correct, , but then the listbox behaves strangely - with the first item being sort of permanently selected - or at any rate - strange selection behaviour

out of interest, changed it to a combo box and it works correctly. so there must be some difference between the two?

After investigation, it might be this : [URL] ....

The appearance is similar to what is described in the thread.

although I have played with the strings to get them shorter without getting it work correctly. very strange

if I run the code to update the listbox from the subform, either directly, or by running as sub IN the main form, it produces this strange behaviour. If I run exactly the same code directly IN the main form, it seems to work properly.

Forms :: Manage MsgBox With Blank Required Fields By Function In A Module

May 11, 2013

I created this function to manage a MsgBox containing all required fields with no data:

Code:
Function FormValidation(TheForm As Form) As Boolean
Dim boolResponse As Boolean
Dim strError As Variant
Dim ctl As Control
boolResponse = True
strError = Null

[code]...

Then, I have a Form_BeforeUpdate event, where I wanna place the function, which contains also some VBA code to manage duplicates records:

Code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset, dbs As DAO.Database, strICAO As String
Dim ctl As Control, txtMsg As String

[code]....

Now, how to add the function in this event to get these two results:

1. if required fields are blank and I press OK on the MsgBox, the routine must stop;
2. the focus must go in the first required blank control.

I tried some options but I get different kind of malfunctions: no custom message for duplicate records but only the access default one, "go to next record" feature with tab key not working and so on.

Access Database Help With Dates

Jul 18, 2007

I have a database that includes dates in a table, and a form that I use to show items that are issued from a supply crib. The date is automatically input by the database. I have designed a report with all the data that I need. My problem is that I need to be able to print this report according to a specific start date and end date (which is usually a 7-day period), and I can't seem to get this accomplished. Could someone please guide me in the direction that I need to go? I have a query designed, but I don't know how to apply the query to my report. For example, upon opening my report, I need it to ask me for a start date and an end date, and print the report according to the dates that I input. At the present time, the report won't ask me for these dates. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

New To Access. Need Some Help Creating A Database

Apr 25, 2006

Hello everyone!

I heard from a number of people that this is the place to come for Microsoft Access related help.

So here is my question and I hope someone can help me understand access a little bit better.

I am trying to create a database for a job I am doing. THere are 700+ convenience stores that we (4 inspectors) inspect every three months.

We have been told to do an ADA compliance survey when we visit these stores.

The ADA checklist that we have is about 78 questions and my manager wants me to create an ADA database for this information.

So I am in need of help on how to create a database that allows me to input the answers of this ADA checklist for each store inspected.

I then would like to be able to pull all that information into a report that I could say of the 700+ stores, 50% passed all questions, 25% passed only questions 1-??, etc. etc.

I can upload the two files: The ADA checklist and our Store list if anyone would like to help me out!

Thanks Much!
