For an assignment I am required to do the following:
Quote: Use an expression (in field name of design view by using the build button) to create a new field (in Design View of a Query) called "Discount Price" in table "Stock" which is a 25% discount for all stock items from the new inflated price in query B (use expression builder if needed and create it the field name of a query; it will not appear in the table if you try to open the table).
So sorry to bug again. Any ideas or processes on how to go about this would be welcomed
Hi I'm hoping someone can help me with this problem (the access problem.. not the other one ! :cool: ) I have a table of Products, each item belongs to a product group, I have a table of Customers, amoungst the normal customer fields I have fields named after the item discount groups so that each customer has his own discount for that group of products... when I enter an item into the sales order form I would like the discount for that customer for that item(item group) to go into the discount box.. sounds easy if you say it fast... I hope someone can help me with this !
I have a table called Books, in that table there is 4 columns ChapterName, Auther, ITEM, Price.
Each book has a item number, and each book has a few records with the same data, just the first column is different where its the ChapterName, each book has a price, but only once, meaning in the first record of each book it will be a price in the column price
Now I want a Query where i can get which book dont have a price at all, and which book has more than once a price, how can i do that?
I have been asked to create a database that creates orders, debits stock etc for my company. Now I have been asked to put in some kind of discount table with percentages for each individual item for each individual customer. What would the best way of doing this?
I figured in the Customer Table I would have a code such as 'CustomerADiscount' and 'CustomerBDiscount' etc. and then in my table maybe
Product A - CustomerADiscount - 10% Product A - CustomerBDiscount - 20%
Product B - CustomerADiscount - 5% Product B - CustomerBDiscount - 7%
This link these values up within a query? Would this be the best way of doing it?
Is Access able to determine a percentage in "10%" or "5%" or do I need some type of formula for it instead?
ok i have a table containg two columns. One column has a list of items and the second column has their respective prices. I wanna make a query that only displays each item and the cheapest price. Does anyone know how to do that?
Fabcode : the unique code of the article Price : the price by this supplier Stock : quantities for the moment in stock by this supplier Date : When there is no stock at this supplier, the estimated time of arrival Supplier : name of the supplier
A selection for looking the lowest price for a supplier who has stock is no problem. But I want also the fastest delivery date when no one has stock.
Example
Fabcode Price Stock Date Supplier Product1 5 3 A Product1 6 4 B Product1 7 5 C Product1 8 6 D Product2 14 73 A Product2 12 56 B Product2 15 14 C Product3 30 0 30/12/13 A Product3 24 0 B Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C Product3 32 0 26/12/13 D
Result : Product1 5 3 A (because supplier A has stock and the lowest price) Product2 12 56 B (because supplier B has stock and the lowest price) Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C (because no one has stock, but supplier C has the shortest delivery time AND the lowest price)
Remark 1 : when there is no delivery date (and no stock), this supplier should be ignored for that product Remark 2 : when no one has stock, the delivery date is priority, when 2 supplies has the same delivery date than the price is priority.
After being a member on this site for a while now I would like to get some opinions on "cost of application development" I know the forum covers a wide geographic area and the members cover a wide spectrum of degrees of expertise on Access and application development. So the question is this..What would your rates be and how would you determine your charges for developing Access applications for a business?PS... Please include your location if not in your profile.
I have a problem which hope will have a simple solution, which has been driving me mad all day
I have a client who has two prices for the same service depending on speed of turnaround These prices are entered into the Client table seperately using the CDetails form. I then wish to use this information using a combo box for selection within another form called SDetails.However I can only get the combo box within SDetails to put one of the two prices rather than either of the two choices, because of the bound column within the combo. The combo when pulled down looks something like this
Price 1 Price 2 Client Name
I would prefer for
Price 1 Price 2
so that I have the choice of the price I want to choose.
Having spent time and many brain cells, I have ground myself to a stop. HELP!!!!!! if only for the sake of my sanity
My problem is that the products being sold are so at different prices depending on the customer. (e.g I am selling 100 burgers to Mcdonalds for £50 whereas to Burger King I am selling them for £35).
Therefore I have split my 'Products' table into two. A 'Products' table which contains the product name and category. And a second 'Prices' table which contains the Product name, Customer and the price.
I have setup a relationship between the two tables based on product name
How to I go about looking up the different prices depending on which customer I have placed an order for?
can it be done in a table or do I need to create a query to sort it all out.
I am in need of some assistance. I've been looking on here for an answer, but can only find solution that would give me a by column lowest price, and I need to compare the prices by row. What I have is a table of vendor prices for part numbers we sell. What I want to do is compare all the prices the vendors for each part number and return the lowest and 2nd lowest fields in a query. Here is an example...
ok i didnt know what section to put this in so i put it here. what i wanna do is add a price change history to my database. for example is the price of an item is changed in my database i want to be able to see what the previous price was and when it was last changed, either in forms of reports doesnt matter i just need somewhere to view this info. problem is i have no idea where to start.
Before I start, please know that I am what you call a newbie to a certain extent even though I created in the last 3 years a very complex and efficient database for my business.
This is going to be hard to explain, but I'll try.
The time came to stop creating the Price List in Excel and copy and paste in Access.(mainly to make it easy for other person to maintain and understand)
I know more or less the tables that will need to be created.
My problem is how to store calculated fields in a table (I know I really shouldn't, but how else can I accomplish this), since all the costs and selling prices are the result of complex formulas.
If this information is not enough to understand my question please let me know.
I started a new thread, because it is a new subject even though is related to my Price List thread, I hope is OK.
If someone can please take a look at my attached Excel Price List (particulary the factors sheet) and give me an opinion of how my tables should be created.
I cleaned the Price List was too big to attach and it will be easier to be understood, in its entirety is kind of all over the place, exactly why I need to make simpler in Access for another user to update if I am not around.
I am below including what I think the tables should include, but not sure exactly how they should be, please be reminded that I am un unexperienced newbie. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am building a database in Access which I would like to eventually link to my website in order to sell hotel bookings online. I believe I have set all the fields up properly but when it comes time to set the price I'm lost. Each hotel has about 3-5 different prices throughout the year depending on the date. How can I design a table(s) to accommodate this? Any help is appreciated.
I have a combo box which looks up vessel names, it stores the Vessel ID in a field [Vessel ID]. This all works fine, no problem, easy. However as part of the vessel details I also need to know the service the vessel is providing “transhipment” or “direct”. If it is a “transhipment” service I need to show a second Combo box with the on carriage vessels. That’s also easy, I just hide the second combo box and only show it depending on the service status of the vessel.
Now I figure I just need to have a field [Vessel Status] which is updated after the first combo box is updated and then depending on the value show or hide the additional combo box. The problem I’m having is updating the [Vessel Status] field once the first combo box has been update.
Here are my relevant tables: I have a table called Items which has itemCode (primary key), itemDescription, and price. I have a table called bidItems which has bidCode (primary key), itemCode (primarykey), and some other info I have a table called Bids witch has a bidCode (primary key), and a bidDescription
Here is a form that I use to enter data into these tables and (want) to view prices and totals: I made a form based on the Bid table with a continuose subform based on the bidItems table, with combo boxes that lets you select Items by itemDescription (then it stores itemCode automatically with the correct bidCode)
What I can't figure out how to do is get each item's price to automatically display on the form (remember price is in Items table, not bidItems). I've tried a number of things that havn't worked out.... any ideas. Then, ideally I would like the form to display the total of all the item prices. (if you have a pointer on that as well it would be much appreciated)
I like to do formula price calculation in Access like my sample excel file. How many table should I create & How to build query? Whenever exchange rate change or MarkUp price rate change, I only want to type once & it will affect the whole access.
I have tried so many ways in Access but it doesn’t work like my sample excel file.
Might be in the wrong place but didnt know it it needed to be in query, form or vb sorry admin.
I need help, what i need is a way of assigning a price too a drop down menu.
Basically its a Form with a number of drop down menus where you can select different varibles colour, finish for a certain product, but theres no method to generate a total cost of selecting different variables.
Do you know of a soloution becuase ive exhausted my capacity!!
So I have a table "InventoryTracker", with one field lookup set to list (drop down) and the source is another table "inventory", field "Item". This works good and all the items that I enter in the "inventory" table are available from the "InventoryTracker" table. Both "inventory" and "InventoryTracker" have a field called price.
Heres what I want to have happen. When I select a item from the drop down list menue in "InventoryTracker" it automatically fills in the "InventoryTracker" price based on the price from the "inventory" table (for the item with the same name, the one I just selected). This has to be fairly straitforward, I can do it in excell, but not acess.
I am trying to create a simple database to keep track of computer components that I order for custom PCs. The data is fairly basic Quantity, Description, Stock Code, Delivery Status, Cost, Cost+VAT, Date Delivered. The list is currently 500+ rows of data. I simply cut and paste this info directly from my online invoices.
What I want is to be able find the the last price paid for an item (often the same items have different prices week by week) Eventually I would like to be able to create a rough quote using the latest prices (plus mark up) and also view a price history.
I would also like to include a few pictures as URL links to the suppliers website ????
At present the data is in Excel and linked to a single table in Access (but this can be changed). I realise that I have to group the records somehow but cannot get it to work. At present it lists every record either in date order or product order.
The stock code should not change, but product descriptions do. So any links to pics would be based on stock codes
Someone please tell me how to display the full list of products but only the latest price/date
If you think the current format is rubbish then feel free to suggest an alternative. I much prefer Excel but have never really got to grips with Access (used to be a vba programmer with Excel). To link to pictures and hide data that customers might see Access seems the obvious choice. So I try again!!!!!
I am having trouble calculating a field in a table and on a form. I have the following Tables CUSTOMER: Customer No, Name, Address, City, State, Zip, Discount, Phone, Fax, Contact Person. ORDER: Customer No, Order No, Order-Date, Delivery-Date. ORDER LINE: Order No, Product No, Quantity Ordered, line-item-cost PRODUCT: Product No, Description, Price, Product Image.
I need to calculate the line-item cost and need it to update every time the user enters a new Quantity ordered on the ORDER LINE form. I know its (Quantity Ordered*Price)-(Price*Discount) and I did this is a query and it worked but I need it to update in the form and update in the table not the query. I have tried everything (Macros, Queries, and Formulas) and I just can not get it to work. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks
