Forms :: Preventing Double Booking Of Room In Form Based On Multiple Criteria
Aug 13, 2015
I have Table for rooms called Rooms, and the data in the table is roomNumber which is in the format Letter and two Digit number, so A01 would be dorm building A and room building 1, and I then have a seperate row named roomType that is either VIP or Semi Private.
Now I am creating a form where a worker will put in there scheduledCheckin date and scheduledCheckout date and it will be written to the Bookings table. I would like this form however to take the dates they have put in, as well as room type (Semi-Private or VIP, and assign them an available room that isn't booked at all in that range) or list all available rooms for that range of time and they could then just select the room. I would rather it automatically assigns an available room based on room type though because this check in system is going to have about 500 rooms.
I've attached a link for what I have so far. I know how to make a query to list anyone who has booked rooms over that date, but need one for just preventing booking the same room.
I am new to Access and have made a database for a shuttle company that keeps track of their bookings. I need to prevent from the same booking being entered twice. I have a "Booking Form" that was made from a table "Master List". I was wondering if there was a way to compare three of the fields and if they match then a error would pop up.
I think if the "client's name", "booking date", and "pick up time" matched then a "booking already exists"... and also there are four different people can enter data and they have a log in form how can I get their "username" to be put into a field on the "Master List" automatically...
I am in the process of creating a Room Bookings database using the limited graphical tools of Access 2003. I intend to break up the day from 0700 to 1900 into 48 X 15 minute chunks (the minimum bookable time) and have these graphically represented on the form as boxes whose colour change depending on whether it is booked and who by. It would be normal to have up to 8 colours available for this as any one room would be unlikely to be booked by more than 8 people in one day. I would envisage that each day would be covered by a separate subform.
Has anyone else tried a graphical representation of a booking form?
It would be interesting to hear others views or experiences...
So I'm trying to do this database for my ICT coursework and its a full system for dog kennels.
So in actuality the rooms are kennels.
I have a table tblbookings that amongst others has fields:
Kennel No Date In Date Out
I need a way of users entering the requested dates for a new booking and getting an output of a list of all kennels that are available to book for that full date range or even better, a way of running this straight from the form for a new booking frmbookings to just leave the first available kennel no. in the field KennelNo?
Please could someone give me help on this topic, I need to slove it for coursework in Access but im having the following problem.
Im creating a database for a hotel which rents out its room obviously. The problem i have is if a guest books a room for say march 3rd until march 6th, theres currently no way in which to stop another guest booking the room for any of these dates.
I think i know how to stop double booking for the start day, but not the days inbetween if you understand. The database has 3 tables: Guest Info Room info Bookings
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
P.S the method i hope to use, is the hotel will enter the start date of a guests stay and then enter the number of nights the guest is staying for e.g. 3rd-6th of march would be input as: Begin date: 03/03/08 for:'3' nights.
I am wanting to prevent a double booking. I have a form called:
frm_Booking which records an ArrivalDate and DepartureDate
and another form
frm_Building_Booking which records a BuildingID number
I want to ensure that a customer cannot book a BuildingID for an ArrivalDate and DepartureDate it it has already been booked by another cusotmer or book any on the days between.
However a customer should be able to book a BuildingID on the DepartureDate.
could someone please help me, i am having a problem trying to get rid of double bookings in the attached database.
This database is for an assignment for my students, and unfortunately i had got the point now that i have got incredbily stupid and cannot see a solution.
I want to make sure that a client cannot double book an instructor and a car on a specific time or date...
Obviously i would also want to make sure that if one client has booked a specific car or instructor no other client would be able to book it, in the same time and date slot.. All lessons are 1 hour long
for some reason i have to make sure that a client can book a specific car... This unit is being taught alongside another unit by another teacher, who does not see the complexities of the problem, and insists that this complexity is in the database, however they do not know the solution either.
I have tried creating different types of primary key combinations, but that does not work..
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I have created a database to take bookings for holiday properties but can't figure out how to stop the properties from being booked over the same period. I have a table called booking order with the fields Booking no, property no, start date and end date. On the equivilant form for a property i need to be able to stop start and end dates being entered that are between existing start and end dates already booked for that property.
On Microsoft Access 2010, I am creating a database project for a DJ booking system (not for professional use) and wondered how you can stop double booking from occurring that would provide you with an error message that I could personalize.
My current booking file looks like this:
Booking ID - Primary Key Customer ID (Linked to customer table) Venue ID (Linked to venue table) Date Booked Set Up Time Start Time Finish Time Party Type Discount Code
At the moment I have the date booked as Indexed (No Duplicates) however this gives me a long error message that I can not personalise.
I have a list of client stored in a table "Clients". I would like a form to present a user with the next client in the list at the click of a button, but there will be some exceptions:
Some clients will be given priority, and should be moved to the top of the list although they may not be the next logical entry in the table. Priority clients are indicated by a field "Priority" with a Yes/No option set before work begins.
Some clients will have requested a call at a certain time of the day - This time will be stored in a field named timeToCall. The next user to click the button after the time has passed should be given that clients details.
When the end of the list is reached any clients who could not be contacted will be tried again. My table currently has a field "Attempts" to track this, but that may not be needed. Clients who have been dealt with will be removed from the "Clients" table to a "Completed" table.
Whichever record is selected will be flagged as being dealt with so that 2 people don't get the same entry. I may add a new field for this, but right now I plan to use the "attempts" field to control this
I am unsure of the best approach to the above, I'm not very well-versed in Access, but if I were doing this in Excel (as originally requested by my boss) I would do it like this:
Use a form where the "Next" button will use VBA code to first check if there are any priority clients, then check if there are any timed client's ready to call and then move to the next entry that has had 0 contact attempts. Whichever record is the next one will be displayed in the form to the user.
I have the following code which i found on another thread on this forum (thanks to original author) which is attached to the On Click of a button which prints the report corresponding to the details displayed in the form.
Dim strCriterion As String Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String Dim intStyle As Integer
This works fine, however, i need to be able to select the report based on more than 1 criteria. For example, the Reference Number can be repeated but is distinguishable from each other by an Issue Number i.e. ReferenceNumber = 93, Issue 1 or 2 etc. At present when i run the above it prints all versions of, in this case, reference number 93, which given that each report is only a single page isn't a show-stopper but it would be nice to have it working as i would like.
I have tried adding to the strCriterion line such as strCriterion = "[ReferenceNumber]=" & Me![ReferenceNumber] and "[IssueNumber]=" & Me![IssueNumber] but no joy. I have tried bracketing the whole line and variations thereof, again no joy.
Can anybody tell if what i am attempting to do is possible and if so how do i go about it?
I have tried the above coding using MasterID which is the Autonumber PK but it produces an "Enter Parameter Value" box for MasterID. Obvioulsy if i can get it to work for the Autonumber then my problem goes away but i can't seem to figure out why it works for Reference Number (Number) and not MasterId (Autonumber)?
I have a form which allows the user to book rooms.
On this form, there are the following fields:
BookingID: (Autonumber) RoomID: Text box Time:Text Box Date: Text Box Class: Text Box Teacher: Text Box
The form adds this information to the Booking table.
What I'm looking to do is prevent the user from double booking a room,like being able to check if the Room is already booked at that time and date, before the new information is added to the table and the room becomes double booked.
Basically this would be checking the RoomID, Time and Date fields, as everything else is irrelevant. What would be the best way to do this?
I have a problem printing a Subform that uses multiple criteria(in textboxes) as filters.
The search portion of the form works fine. The problem is I have created a report based on the subform and am using the following code to open/filter the report
Code: Private Sub PrintBtn_Click() Dim strCriterion As String Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String
My form-based search mechanism uses controls to set the parameters for the query data source.
I have one field call quantity in stock. I could you a Between and And method to allow the end user to input the stock quantity they want.
HOWEVER, i would love it for the user to first select the Comparison Operator (e.g. > , <, >=, <=) from a combo box and then in an adjacent text box, enter the quantity.
The expression i entered in the query goes something like this.... Forms![frmSearch]![cboRange] & [Forms]![frmSearch]![txtQuantity]
When i try and run this, i get the message "THe expression is too complex to be evaluated".
so i created a system to have events booked, and i am trying to check time availability of the event room available, but i dont know what wrong. it either my query or vba code. i have attached the attachment,
I have a form (say Form X) that opens based on the ProjectID criteria in the query, which is based on a record selected from Form1 [ProjectID].
I want to be able to open Form X using information from 2 forms - Form1 or Form2, both using ProjectID. What I've done so far works, but I get an Enter Value Parameter looking for the other Form. How do I write the statement so that it reads Form1 [ProjectID] and if that is not open (null??), then it goes to Form2 [ProjectID] and vice versa?
What I have is:
IIf(("IsNull[Forms]![FrmAddPrjInfo]![ProjectID]"),[Forms]![FrmPrjRvwerMgrDue]![ProjectID],0) Or IIf(("IsNull[Forms]![FrmPrjRvwerMgrDue]![ProjectID]"),[Forms]![FrmAddPrjInfo]![ProjectID],0)
Variations of this haven't worked. Perhaps IIF statement is the wrong way to go about this?
I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".
I have a form lets call it 'Customer' and I have a table called orders how can I write 'Excel like' Countifs and sumifs formulas? I have been trying the IIf functions I believe correctly but am not getting the results expected or rather nothing at all!
What I am wanting to do is for example look at the table 'orders' and count all 'orders' which are for the 'Customer' in the active form this field is imaginatively called 'Customer Number' and 'orders' that are for simplicity 'rocks'
Basically if the client in the active form exists in the orders field count how many times they have placed an order for rocks.
I have a form which lets the user enter a contract ID and then a combo box that has a list of reports which run against whichever ID is entered.
What I want to know if I put the ID's in a table if theres a way to allow the user to select multiple ID's in one go and run the report against them the range rather than 1 at time?
I'm thinking about utilising the check/tick boxes would this be possible? or another way?
I currently have a database which contains various information for part returns. Among this information is contained a parts tracking number, VIN Number, and Date Code. I want to have a small dialogue box (Form) where a user can enter a tracking number, (or a date code or VIN if tracking number unavailable) to search for a record containing that tracking number. I have already created a replica of my new part entry form to view parts in read only mode only.how to create small form to search for record based off criteria then open the replica form i have made to that record?
I have a main Form "Client" that shows details such as Representatives, phone numbers, status, etc. I also have a main report "CRM" that is a nicer summarized table version of all of my Client form entries.
The "CRM" form will be used by others in my office to see what clients we are contacting, etc. What I want to be able to do is have someone open the CRM form first. If they want to see even more specific info (not everything is included in the report, as that would be too messy), I want them to be able to double click the Client's name on the report and be taking to the corresponding entry on the Client form that shows more details.
Right now my code for the Report which is not working is the following:
Private Sub Client_Name_DblClick()'double click on a client name in the reportDoCmd.OpenForm "Client", acNormal, , "[Client_Name]='" & [Client_Name]'this should open the Client Form to the record of the same client that was double clicked on the reportEnd Sub
Hi there i am building a search form and I want it to be able to display results from multiple criteria......Currently I am able to display results in a listbox, whenever the user types in a id number in a text box. So if a user types 63 in the ID text box the record with and ID of 63 will appear in the list box or it will wont if the record does not exist..... What i want to do is be able to search on multiple criteria. Sof if a user wants to search based on a name instead of a id number they woudl be able to. What I am struggling to grasp is how to invoke a OR in the criteria box. So that the list box will display results based on either the ID text box OR the name text box.
i am querying a single table that contains card numbers and corresponding transaction codes (amongst other things). a single card number can have multiple transaction codes.
i want to select all card numbers that have both 0100 and 0802 transaction codes.
if i use a select query with ="0100" Or "0802"as the criteria, it returns all card numbers that have either 0100 or 0802 transaction types. if i then change the query to crosstab and group by card number, it is clear that some cards have both transaction types.
when i try to change the criteria to ="0100" And "0802" it returns nothing at all.
i'm sure the solution is something really simple - any idea what i'm doing wrong?
I have a table(Product Change) with these fields: Tracking Number Approved (a check box) Engineering (text box that represents department) Purchasing (text box that represents department) Quality (text box that represents department) Production (text box that represents department) Customer Service (text box that represents department)
I want my query results to show all records that have the "Approved" check box...checked, and then only the records that have one of the Department fields with a null value. So I'm looking to see only records that are "Approved" and out of those....only the records with at least one department field empty(Null).
Any help doing this is SQL view would be great...or even design view.
