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 creating a inventory database for work. I am trying to get the cursor to jump to the next text box for data entry using a barcode scanner. I have a limit on how many characters there can be in this field but yet even after it is all filled the cursor stays in that same field. I am fairly new to access, especially in code building. Do I use "After Update" under "Event" in the "Property Sheet"?
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....
My company has a database. I downloaded a copy of it to my desktop to work on it. Can I integrate my changes to the original? (copy/paste,export etc) I hope so.
Does anyone know how to setup an integration with MapPoint in Access 2003 like the Integration in Outlook 2003?
I would like to have my users be able to click an Icon on a toolbar (or directly on the form is a toolbar option is not possible) and it opens MapPoint and insert the address automatically. If the Program MapPoint is not possible maybe a link to a Map Website like MapQuest.com.
I have a reservations form, which will be used to store the checkin and checkout dates for customers; these are related to the reservations table. On the same form I also want room details showing such as room number, this is on a separate rooms table. I believe that the room number will be a query to show which rooms are available and therefore display the room number on the form. So I need integrating this into the form. Also I have not set it as a subform, the reservations form carries on from the customers form, as a new form.
I'm in the US military. I would like to use the bar code on the back of the military IDs to populate an access database. Can you point me in the right direction as to how to get started?
I have a Symbol long range barcode scanner. Works great. I need to drop this in access and have it update as input (without hitting enter every time). I am reading barcodes with serial numbers and part numbers.
I want to use a business card scanner, and use the data for my Access 2000 order database. Most card scanners, can send data to Outlook, can you go from Outlook to Access? Any advise would be appreciate it . . . THANKS!:o
OK... Did some searching and posted one question on forms... But still have one important question that has not been answered. First let me say I want to use a scanner connected via USB. ( I need to be able to use this app on a laptop, so keyboard wedge is not possible) Found a quote on a site "TalTech"... Something like that...... This one.. "1) Keyboard Wedge output or USB output
If your bar code scanner has Keyboard Wedge output or USB output you will not need special data collection software. Both these outputs will dump the data right into the foreground application on your PC wherever the cursor is flashing, as if it were being typed in. You do not usually get much control except for the addition of a trailing keystroke, such as an ENTER key, to your data. But these methods are very simple and work fine for many people."
Question is...... Is this true??? Will the USB input directly to the field I want it to?? I just need someone with some experience in this to let me know for sure.
I have created a form that I would like to search for a barcode by using a scanner as an input device. Does anyone know how to go about doing this? The form basically holds a subform of textboxes that have barcodes. I want the user to be able to scan a barcode which will then find that barcode in the subform and assign it with a DateOut = Date() ...
I have a table which contains 2 fields. UserID and FullName..Each employee is assigned a barcode (UserID) and what I would like is when they scan their barcode into the form their name comes up. There is a second table containing records of documents and I am hoping that this form will allow an employee to scan their ID, their name comes up, scan a document and the title of the document comes up, there would be a current date box and then that whole transaction is saved as a record in another table. Long story short I want to know who is accessing what records and to have it logged.
This question is related to a restaurant POS system design. Is there a way to allow a text field in a form to be filled by a scanner only, unless an event is triggered? Rather than using a magnetic strip ones for gift cards, we're thinking of using the bar code version. However, to prevent employees from fraudulently entering the six digit code, the code must be inputted by a scanner. We do also would like to allow user input with keyboard in case scanner malfunctioning, but would require a "manager" login first.
Didn't know where to post this one...... But forms seemed logical..... I am doing some experimenting with using a barcodes. I can create them now, no problem. My next step is using a scanner to input to a textbox...... Problem isn't with the forms..... But more with the scanners. I thought if someone has done one of these DB's they might know. So........ I need a cheap scanner to test with.... Found a few on Ebay. The cheapest being a Symbol- "Hotshot" LS2100-I000.Says it has "DB9" plug. The ebay ad says "comes with NO software". Only thing I am wondering about are drivers. I've read in a couple places claims that this scanner "Needs NO drivers" So my question is.... Would this scanner work with Access on a Windows XP system? No drivers needed? Hope this question isn't too "off the subject" But I am dealing with Access and hoping someone has done this. Thanks Curtis
Still working on an meeting registration app in Access. I have a Main menu which contains buttons that allow search by Name, Phone Number, or Account Number. We are using barcode scanners if they have a registration card.
Currently I have an account button which pops up a query prompt window and when they scan the code it fills the prompt with their account number and a carriage return, pulling up an account registration form with their info.
What I would like to do is from the main form, if a barcode is scanned, to automatically lauch the account form passing the scanned account number.
I am using Access 2003 and there is a from with barcode scanner to update the shipping data. This form has a sub-form which is working perfectly fine and updating data but the barcode scanner assigned with main form stopped working today. I tried different scanner too and different system too but its not working.
I'm curious, I need to set a database up to keep track of inventory for a new product. the product requires several materials to build the product. I would like to "forecast" so to speak, the amount of materials needed to maintain enough materials on hand for "x amount of product. Is this something I would use MS access for? Or would this be a better project for excel ? Any help would be appreciated.
If in fact ms access would work, could someone point me in the direction of an Inventory database tutorial?
I've been working on a new project, an Inventory DB..... Everything works well... BUT....... Now I am back to a design issue so I can deal with a FIFO inventory. I have searched the forum and every place else to try to see the prefered method for setting this up..... Can't find much. I have seen using serial numbers, or dates. Neither would work well for what I am looking at. I have thought of using a ID field for Inventory purchased.... Auto number... This would then show the first items in as the lowest number. But........ What is the common method for setting this up? Any examples around? Thanks
Could someone PLEASE point me in the right direction.... I've designed a couple of DB,s to handle inventory. But I am still stuck on bringing one option in. FIFO! My design for the FIFO will probable end up with the "purchases" table being set up with an "autonumber" field to record each purchase. My problem is still seeing some code to get the sale of items to loop thru these purchase "batches". If anyone knows of an example of this PLEASE post a link for me. Thanks Curtis
