I am trying to create a simple store keeping In and Out inventory database using Access, I thought I had made it but looks like I am missing something here.
The store works on SRV (Store Receiving Voucher) and SIV (Store Issue Voucher). Products will be added based on SRV and will be issued out based on SIV. So far I have created the tables as you can see in the figure. One thing I am not understanding is where to keep the record of the Current Quantity of each product, lets say an Item has been added or issue out, it should be added or deducted accordingly from that specific products overall quantity. Right now I have a sample field within products table as you can see with the name QtyOnHand but that doesn't seem to be logical.
Im building an inventory database for my company and have the tables, relationships, forms and query's built but im struggling to figure out a way to make all the quantities move around when I have a purchase order or sales order that either adds to removes from inventory.
My database is fairly simple as all I need to do is track what is coming and going and what is the current levels of inventory. I have for instance a product table that has all the information on what products I have and what their part numbers, item number (primary key), description and so forth, separate customer tables and supplier tables, as well as an inventory table setup similar to the northwinds database. I used queries to combine my purchase order and purchase order detail tables and to combine the sales order and sales order detail tables to make sales orders and purchase orders through their respected forms and all is good in that sense but it doesn't move the inventory numbers just lists what is in each purchase Order/Sales order.
I want to make inventory fifo(first in first out) db. Example:
February 1- beginning balance : 800 unit @ 6$ per unit 4- received 200 unit @ 7$ per unit 10- received 200 unit @ 8$ per unit 11- issued 800 unit 12- received 400 unit @ 8$ per unit 20- issued 500 unit 25- returned 100 unit to storeroom to be recorded as latest issued prices 28- received 600 unit @ 9$ per unit
The report must be like pic attached
I dont know how to make transaction to do this....
I have to write a code for my database,i have folder with files "pending Review" and a table with column "tblExcelLocation". when i run my database all the files from pending review folder goes to "tblExcelLocation" on a click of button.But,if the files already exists it should not insert those files and insert the rest.For this i tried to write a code but i think i m unable to do that .
Code: Loop through files in folder folderspec = "O:QA FilesQC ReportingPending Review" Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f = fs.GetFolder(folderspec) Set fc = f.files
I have some basic knowledge of Access and how it works but when it comes to the SQL formulas and some database structures I have not had enough experience. If someone could please guide me in the right direction with this I would appreciate it.
I have need to setup a database of all equipment in a small room so that I can keep inventory on it. Right now I have a database with three tables in it. An Items table that relates barcodes of an item to the actual item name. A Tech table that contains all the techs that would take from or replace something in the inventory of this room. And a Transactions table where it holds what item, who, and if it was taken or stocked.
What I need the most help with setting up right now is how do I use the transactions table to total up all uses and stocks of each unique item so that I can get an idea of what is actually supposed to be in the room at the moment.
I need to create a small inventory database tracking product in stock and "x" amount of raw material to create it.
Is there a way, using MS Access that I can track inventory of the product as well as update how much material was used to create the product?
I am new to access but I know how to create a database and enter the fields I want, eg: product id, model number, product color, in stock, re order, lead time.
My problem is associating another table to deduct/or add the amount of material based on totals.
In a nutshell, I want to track product inventory as well as track raw material in stock to create more.
Im creating a db to keep records of computers that have been assigned to persons in their various departments and also unassigned computers and spare parts.
problem:
For the machine specifications table should i put in the following fields as columns
Hard Drive 1 Hard Drive 2 Hard Drive 3 Optical Drive 1 Drive 2 Drive 3
or should i just create a field called Component and another field called type/size e.g. component would be hard drive or opticqal drive and Type/Size would be 60GB or DVD+RW
or should i just create individual tables to store the Hard drive info separate from the optical disk and separate from the memory.
The database is going to get really big which is why i wana structure it properly you r help would be really appreciated.
I am trying to develop an inventory control database and would really appreciate some advice on the way I propose to develop the application
Inventory Control Database.
Outline for inventory control database.
The database will have the following tables:
Supply Table
Person Table
Supplied Table
On hand table
Orders Table
The Supply Table - will store the names of the stock items available
The persons table - will basically hold information on the person receiving the product/supplies
The Supplied Table - will hold information on who is being supplied, what is being supplied, who is the supplier, how much is supplied and when.
The On Hand table - will initially store the opening stock for all the stock items available. When an individual is given some of that stock, the amount of stock given will be subtracted from the on hand total, for that particular stock item.
The Orders Table – Will be the place where we will record all orders received. Once an order is received, this figure will be added to the On Hand Total for that particular item. So ultimately the on hand table should reflect initially the opening stock figure, then the opening stock figure plus any amounts ordered. I anticipate that after the initial opening stock figure is entered onto the system, the on hand table will be automatically populated by the orders table, and the site user will only need to manually update the On hand table in case of emergency, for example if a mistake is made on the order table.
I would really appreciate some help with the table design logic here. This is the first time that I have developed a stock ordering system, and would appreciate any advice on the over all design.
Initially, I want to build this as an access application then convert it to a web application ASP/SQL Server
I'm wrestling with a problem with a hardware and software database, on the software side. I'm trying to figure out where to store the license and media cost for a piece of software. Right now I have the following tables:
1. Software name (MS Word, Office, for example) 2. Software version, which also stores whether a license is required 3. Software license, which includes the license code and whether that license expires 4. Software inventory table, which stores the # of licenses we have available for installation. The purchase order (PO) # and date are currently here. 5. Software PO generating table. This is used when we need to reorder more licenses, or a new piece of software.
I need to figure out where to store the cost of the software, the cost of the license, how many people are covered by the license. I've been trying to decide which of the last three tables should store this information.
There are two issues: we need to keep a history of how much older versions of the software and its licenses cost, as well as be able to enter information to order new versions of the software and/or licenses.
I need to create an inventory database that will track customer owned inventory as it is received stored serviced and sent back to my customer. I am in the oil and gas industry and store large amounts of customer owned pipe. many joints will have the same part number but each joint is one of a kind in that it has a joint,heat, lot, and batch number. here is an example,
Job Name: Shell ex Part Number: 129001 Quantity: 1000
Each one of the thousand joints will have a combination of this information making it one of a kind.
My system needs to allow my users to receive jobs, record where we store the pipe in a rack location, pull the specific joints out of inventory as the customer calls for them. We will receive 1000 at a time but the customer calls for portions of that job over long periods of time..
I have scanner (Unitech MS335-1G) and my end goal is to scan a product number bar code on a box into a field on a form. Then from what is scanned into the box run a query on another table that has all the info on the product. Then populate other fields on the form.
I am developing a database for a friend and have all the relationships, tables, forms, queries and reports working well. I used the orders template to build this and just made a few changes. I have an orders form with an orders details subform that works beautifully. There is also customers table, employee table, products and inventory table. The inventory table has product ID, units in stock and reorder level as the only fields. I need an easy way to have the orders detail form decrease inventory as items are ordered and also some sort of way to enter restock. Can anyone offer advice that a beginner can understand in regard to this?
I wrote an update query that he can run that will subtract the qty ordered from the units on stock for orders with order date >= whatever date he enters, but if he enters a date he's previously updated it will update those records again. I think this is not a good way to go but the only way I could accomplish. I have him using the same order entry form with customer name Restock to add items to inventory by putting an if then else statement in the before mentioned update query. This just adds to inventory if customer name="Restock" else the qty ordered is inventory units in stock -qty ordered.
I'm sure someone can suggest a better way. A friend mentioned dsum function but can't explain how to apply it in this instance. Thanks so much!!!!
I am not sure how complicated of a job this is, but we want to be able to import our daily recievals of inventory into our existing inventory database instead of entering it by hand. I try using the wizard, however when I get to "finish" it says there was an error and it was not imported.
I don't know much about access but I was hoping one of you could point me in the right direction.
I want to track inventory. All our items are tubes that are stored in boxes in a 10x10 grid. So I have a single access table with columns for tube ID, box ID, and position in the box (numbered 1-100). That works fine in terms of 'where can I find tube x'. However it's also useful to be able to look at the physical box & check that there are tubes where should be tubes, and empty spaces where there should be empty spaces. So for each box in the database, I want to print out a 10x10 grid, with the appropriate tube ID's in the appropriate place. Then I can easily check the layout in the database against the layout in the actual box.
I have a Inventory DB and i want to integrate scanning. So far i have a table called StockInfo, this table holds information about bar codes (device type, make, model). I have a form called Scan_Barcode, on this form I want to be able to scan a bar code into a text box (text0) and use a afterupdate and requery function to display the results onto a form called EnterInventory.
Not only just the results but I want certain columns from the query to display in certain text boxes on this form. I have a query called FindProduct. that filters the criteria by whats entered on the Scan_Barcode text box (text0). So when i scan a certain bar code i can get the query to display certain product information for the bar code. I just cant get the results onto the HarwareStock form.
hello, im actually trying do design a database with attached word files, ie the persons information and his attached cvs i never done that before and im confused, should i attach all the cvs(words documents) to the database ie can i create a field which is a word document or i should put all the cvs in a folder outside the DB and put a link to them in the table taking into consideration that it s gonna be a big database, and if so can the user attach a file to the database using a button ie in the forms thanks in advance
I have a database on a shared network drive. All users except the manager have only read access to the file/directory. However, if the manager tries to open the file while other users have access open, it only allows him to read it as read only. If they close the database, then he can open it with read-write. Does access use another mechanism other than ldb files for locking?The weird thing is that it seems to be locking correctly. If the manager tries to open the file while someone has it open, it's read-only.
pretty Excel sheet full of conditional formatting that is used as a vehicle assignment board where I work. I know I can embed the file into an Access form using an unbound object, and therefore "integrate" it into Access, however this creates a copy of the file, and therefore when people change the sheet, the original Excel file is not updated. Is there any way to embed the excel file in such a way that the Excel document itself is also updated? Basically some sort of an active, two-way link rather than what amounts to just importing a copy of it? I need to be able to pull data from various cells in that Excel file so it needs to be kept up-to-date.
I need to import a number of .csv files every day and overwrite the old tables with the data from the new .csv files. However, each day, the filenames will change.
For example,
Day 1: Import fileA 1.csv, fileB 1.csv, fileC 1.csv Day 2: Import fileA 2.csv, fileB 2.csv, fileC 2.csv Day 3: Import fileA 5.csv, fileB 5.csv, fileB 6.csv
The files will be named fileA [#].csv, fileB [#].csv, fileC [#].csv, and so on, with a different number each day (with no pattern to the numbers).
Is there a way to write an import specification or VBA script that will import these? Perhaps something that allows a regular expression in the file path so I can import "C:fileA*", "C:fileB*", etc.?
i want to browse the files from a form and then store hem to the database.i have the following code, i can show the file path to the text box but i don't know how to store the file or how to upload the file to the database.
Dim f As Object Dim strFile As String Dim strFolder As String Dim varItem As Variant
We have a client who has managed to muck up their Access database by means of having two users on two computers attempting to use and modify it at the same time, and the primary (actually, the only) location for the database is on Dropbox.
What seems to have happened is that Dropbox detected a conflict, with two different versions of the same file, and resolved this by creating two separate files. How long this went on before the client noticed that they were entering data into two separate files, I can't say.
Their client list is 28,000 someodd people long. What I need to know is if there's a process for merging the two files together, without creating 28,000 duplicate entries. This is being run on Access 2002.
I need to daily import files that start with same name, but the remaining part will be Bill of lading ID (e.g. TEST_BOL 1234.csv). The next day will be TEST_BOL 1235.csv) and so on. I need for Access to import the file based on the "TEST_BOL" into my database and then delete the file from the folder. I don't know how to initialize Access to look for the prefix and import in.
So I've just started with a company where my job is to manage a ton of data. I am new to Access (2010) and am completely impressed by all the awesome things it can do. However, I am running into some issues with knowing the best way to get my current data (which is all in Excel spreadsheets) into Access.
We are working with about 68 customers in 6 different focus areas (or areas of improvement). To make it easier for them, my company has not required them to enter all their data for each area into a centralized database. Instead, we are pulling reports (into Excel) from 3 different databases. The customers who are not currently submitting data to these databases are sending us Excel spreadsheets with their data (they send a seperate spreadsheet for each focus area). So you can see where my problem lies ... NOTHING is the in the same format. Even then the Excel spreadsheets look different from month to month (and customers submit a new, updated form every month with the current month and previous months) because the people managing the data before I came along changed the format a few different times and the customer has the ability to change them too.
Basically, I would really really really like to be able to just link the Excel files to my database, but I am struggling knowing how to do that with my data in so many different places and forms.
