General :: Database That Track Monthly Metrics Of Employees
Jun 15, 2014
I'm developing a database that tracks monthly metrics of employees. These employee are at several different locations.
Here's what I would like:
A table of the employees and their location.
A table of the metrics.
A form that you can select an employee and it would autofill the location and then you could fill out the metrics.
the ability to change an employee's location without it effecting past records.
A report, by month and location of the employee's metrics. (pretty sure I can do this on my own, just can't get to this point.)
I've tried to use a auto lookup query but that then changes the employees location on past records.
I have a table that track monthly data for several thousand products.
The idea is to grab the first month and the first three months of sales for each product.
So I simply need to have a statement that scans through a predefined set of fields and seeks the first none zero value. This become the first month of sales (even if it is the 5th month of the year). It then needs to be able to grab the proceeding 2 months to create a sum of sales in the first 3 months. (however that would be for a second field, so presumably that is just a slightly more complex version of the same formula used to find the first month of sales).
I can use barcode scanning to track items through the process, on the condition that the relevant field on a form is highlighted.
The issue is I want the scanning/tracking with wireless scanners to be going on in the background while an operator can use the other functions of the database.
I'm thinking the solution is two computers, one to run the barcode scanning & tracking the other for the rest of the database functions. The problem is we only have one work PC and getting money for a new PC will be like pulling teeth.
I'm altering a database to have certain fields be recorded monthly.For example: instead of a client's file having "Total X Purchased" it would now be "Total X Purchased - Jan", "Total X Purchaed - Feb".
I want to spin the monthlies out of the master clients table & in to ex. tbl_clientsJan, tbl_clientsFeb, etc. but still have them linked; & have a "Totals" table that aggregates data from all of the tables (adds them up).
I have an existing form, & I was thinking of just creating tabs for the months & subforms in each with their sources as the month tables, & removing the fields that don't change month-to-month (e.g. client name), with relationships between them. I would start by copying all of the master table data in to the month tables & allowing edits from there.
the company doesn't track when the transactions occurred; I'm unable to group them along those lines.I'm new to Access & don't want to make a mistake.
-Table MA's. is the just a table were you can select if an Analyst is at the office or not. so if the check box is selected the analyst is available.
-Table Backups. We have Alias which is a reference code to a supplier the 1 Analyst and then Backup 1 and backup 2
-Table suppliers are just de supplier details.
what i whould need is when in the MA's table an Analyst is not selected a macro or query should search for backup 1 and replace it. when the backup 1 is not available as wel than backup 2 should be put in place.
When no backups are availeble then a message can put in the cell like"No Backup Available'.
This result can be put in a new table named. Decksplit with then the Supplier Alias, Supplier Name, Analyst

Im fairly new to MS Access and have recently created a simple database to track the details of people in my department.
The database is on a shared drive and the idea was that when the details of the individual change, they open the database themselves and edit the appropiate field.
However, is it possible to track the changes that people make over a certain period (ie every month).
I am attempting to create a metrics analysis table from another table. What I would like to do is copy the structure (only) from table 1 into a new table. Change all the fields in the new table to text (except for an ID field which would be an autonumber). Then run a seperate group by query against each column, counting the values in each group (i.e. first query would have two fields The grouped column and the column count.
Once I have these values I would like to concatenate them (with the count in parens) and then push these values back into the new table under the appropriate column.
My code does this. I basically loop through a recordset that runs to each column/field groups and counts and then Edits the new table with the concatenated data.
My first table is 170 fields and 38K records. The issue is that it's too much for Access to handle and it blows up (on field 123) Telling me the File is too large. The file does explode to 1G. Then I can shrink it back down to 67mb by running a repair and compact... and then run the the data for the rest of the fields in that table. When I compact again I get about 80Mb.
So now I have two tables, both with an ID field... so I try to link them together (via a make table query) and meld them into one table... but it keep running into that "File Too Large" issue.
How can I have two tables in a database file with a combined size of 80Mb, but when linked together are too large for the database file? Does it have something to do with having all text fields?
I looked up the limits to MS Access and the field count doesn't appear to be an issue since it's nowhere near 255... So what's the problem here?
I am writing a database to track our (and others) wine collections. i'm wanting to track what bottle is where. so i can look up what i have, look up where i have put it and away i go to get it, simple right?
just to complicate things i want a system in place. where the end user and use forms to add/remove or modify wine racks.
assuming that all racks are rectangular i would like to be able to add a rack and call it rack 1. rack 1 has 4 shelves all able to hold 5 bottles. the database would then say that bottle X is in rack 1 shelf 1 position 1.
if possible there will aslo be a screen that is auto generated by the database showing a simple grid with grrn and red squares denoting if the position if full or empty. the ability to click on a position to see what is in there or to add a bottle there would be amasing but not fussed if that can't be done.
I want a field in my table (called 'ContactTotal') that tracks the total number of times the date was changed in the field 'LastContacted' - through either table or a form, but it should exclude any changes made on the same day.
I'd also like a second field (called 'Popularity') that does the same thing, but multiplies any changes made in the last 3 months by 3, the last 3-6 months by 2, the last 12 months by 1 and anything before that by 0.
I am new in Access 2010 and need table design schema. I am creating a database to track budget changes within our organizations.
1. We have 3 division (West, East and Central). 2. Each division will have 5 Organizations (Office, Campus, Operations, IT and HR) 3. Each Organizations will have multiple sub-organizations 4. The budget start with the sub-organizations - which is break down by cost center and sub cost center.
I have been using Excel to keep a daily track of when people are in to work, but the number of persons employed has increased and it is taking too much time to manually input data into the sheet.
I am looking at Access and I would like to know if what I want is possible.
The fields I would need are , Name , Date , Time worked(1 for a full day and 0.5 for a half) , Reason worked, and funded by(inside/outside organization)
I would like to make a template of form that has the following options.
1. The ability to select a date (possibly through a calendar selection) 2. Select one or multiple different persons from a list 3. Possibly two check boxes (full/half day) - that when selected input a 1 or 0.5 into the database 4. A text entry for reason worked. 5. Another check box for inside/outside funding that reflects the time worked in step 3 and that can be queried to see how many total days funding was given.
Trying to modify this calendar database to track employee leave. I need the calendar form (frmCalendar) to show all employee leave on the calendar using the "Show All" command button on click event. This works if I specify a uID (UserID from employee table) in the code, but only for that specific employee. I need all employees at the same time up on the calendar so I can see if there is more than one employee off on any given day.
Events or leave is populated on the form through "Private Sub DisplayEvents" and the mdlCalendar module.
I have a form based on a query. I've disabled "Navigation Buttons" on the form and am trying to recreate their functionality in a little more user friendly way. I've created next / previous record buttons and have those working great.
I'm now trying to re-create the record counter / tracker. I'd like to setup a box that shows which record I'm on (this can simply be based on the order the query returns them, the same way the navigation buttons does it when they are enabled. ), and how many records there are total in the query.
I tried messing around a little bit with =DCount but wasn't able to make it work I suspect because I'm counting the number of records returned in a query, not in a table.
I'm trying to design a billing and invoicing database and can't seem to figure out how to link the tables and track the payments made by customers. How can I proceed to track the payments and make payments applicable to certain line items or invoices? If the line item hasn't been paid, it needs to show up on the next invoice and be included in the total due.
I have a login screen that works fine but I need to lock some part of the system from normal users but I can't figure out how to track if the user who is logged on is security level is high and can authorize the transaction!!!
I have users table and in it I record the users, passwords, security level. So when someone logs on I have no way of knowing who they are and in order check their security level. I did it in the past by setting the C drive VOL into a value and search but as we use Citrix XenApp this is not possible the C drive is the server drive and if multiple users login to to that server then the VOL value would be wrong.
We have a db to register permits that count for one calendar year. This since 2012. For next year, permits must be renewed. How can we keep track of all permits per year per user in the same table ? We would like to produce annual statistics as well ? Easy solution would have been to copy the existing table for the year 2012 and paste as a new table for year 2013 but we don't know yet who will renew his permit ...
I am looking for a data model to define and track proficiency/currency.
Example:
You earn a licence to do X. You need to renew your licence every 2 years or so. But also, to maintain currency, you need to do what the licence gives you the right to do often enough, or else you need to do a test.
Specifically, you need to do X a specified number of times N within, say, last 3 months at any one time to maintain currency. If you have lost your currency, you need to do a test/check. So at all times, you need to have N times on record within last 3 months, or a test.
In addition, to do X legally, you also need to document that you have done X at least 10 hours within, say, last 6 months, or that you have another test within those last 6 months. This is independet of the previous requirement (concerning the number of times you did X).
Both requirements must be fulfilled at all times for you to do X legally.
So, any suitable model out there? Essentially, something capable of defining and tracking currency for various ratings and license privileges of pilots would do just fine.
I am attempting to develop a DB to track hardware assets, e.g., servers, switches, storage devices, etc... I am at the very beginning of the development/design process. I haven't gone beyond the paper stage yet. I am trying to figure out how I would set up the main Asset table so that when I put in a particular vendor, the model field will list models only for that specific vendor. i.e., when I put in IBM in the Vendor field I will only see IBM models in a drop down for the Vendor_Model field.
I'm pretty sure this will involve a Lookup field. But, how do I restrict the lookup of models. Would that be with a query?
I run a soccer league where we track players attendance for each game. I currently do it on a spreadsheet where each game date is a column and each player is a row. We also track which team they play on at each game (they can play on different teams different weeks). I currently have a second tab in the spreadsheet to record which team a person plays on each week.
Setting up a table of fields for this is relatively easy. The problem comes to data entry. I want to be able to visually see the data like I can in a spreadsheet (names in rows, dates in columns, intersections containing either team name or whether attended) and whilst a cross-tab query gives me the layout, I cannot input data in a cross-tab query.
I'm working on an access database and I need to connect that database to the reminder function of Outlook.
At first, I set the reminder precisely six months before the due date, everything was okay and the reminder worked. But after some revision required by my supervisor, I need to set the reminder based on month (not exactly on the due date), so the tasks which have due dates in the same month will be wrapped into a single reminder. The reminder also should be appear in every two weeks. Here's the code I've been worked on :
Code: Private Sub Expired_AfterUpdate() Dim outLookApp As Outlook.Application Dim outLookTask As Outlook.TaskItem Set outLookApp = CreateObject("outlook.application") Set outLookTask = outLookApp.CreateItem(olTaskItem)
[Code]...
I put this code on the AfterUpdate event in the column containing the due date. How should I rearrange the code so it would be able for the reminder to appear based on the month? (just consider that the reminder will be active six months before due date).
