Help To Create Inventory Table For A Chart
Nov 29, 2004
I am in Access 2003 and I need to create a chart of the inventory levels of a product. I have the daily production and I know that the amount distributed out of the warehouse will be the amount produced that day up to 200 items. However, I can't figure out how to keep a running balance of 'ending inventory' if the amount is over 200, so that it would be the next day's beginning inventory.
I am trying to figure this based on the formula:
beginning inventory + new production - distribution = ending inventory day 1
day 1 ending inventory (beginning inventory) + new production - distribution = ending inventory day 2
etc
I wrote a query to put the new production and the daily balance to retain in inventory (the lesser of daily production or 200). I need my query to be run so that I can put it into a chart, so I need a column to be 'ending inventory' by day so that I can have a line chart going across time.
Thanks for any help. I'm stuck.

Dear Access Expert
I am trying to create the Excel chart see attachments (ExcelChart.jpg) in MS Access but I don't think it's possible with the Access Wizard because it doesn't allow me to use more than one data field (step 2 in the Chart Wizard)
I created the Excel Chart using a pivot table in Excel with two data fields and they are graphed simultaneously
For the Access Chart I only managed to get the "Total Delay Series" and not the "Arrival Delay Series."
Must I use Excel to make this complex chart and link it to my Access form and if so can the chart still be dynamic? My intention is to set parameters using combo boxes and then create the chart on the fly. For example currently the user sees the series for the years 2004- 2008. I want to enable the user to be to have a choice about what years (range) they want to view.
THank you so much.

I have a a table 'Orders' with fields (Order Number, Order Date, CD Number, Card Number).
I would like to produce a query in access 2010 that would allow me to count how many times the CD Number 'Diab190617' has been purchased.
I would like to store the results of this count and counts on other cds numbers somewhere so that I can produce a graph/chart of these counts. How can I do this?

After a lot of searching, printing and highlighting I want to double check that I have the right idea.
I have a simple inventory control database. From reading the forum, it seems the best approach is to drop the detail lines table of the purchase order (incoming) and the detail lines table of the sale invoices (outgoing) and make one table for all transactions.
The Transactions Table would also keep records of inventory adjustments from inventory counts, etc. Each transaction would be given a type so I know in which direction the stock count moves in (adding or subtracting) when I sum the totals for each item.
Otherwise, I need union queries to ensure all tables are considered in my calculations.
My database is simple (thankfully). Let me know that I am on the right track I like the solution but like any new student, a little reassurance is appreciated.

Hi, I was asked to help create a very simple Access DB for a small restaurant to help them keep track of inventory.
The only things that the owner wants to keep track of are:
1.Item Catalog
2.Date and Quantity of Item IN or OUT
3.Current # of Items
My problem here is that there are 5 Item categories, each with a relatively lost list of Items under each one.
1.Drinks
2.Ice Cream
3.Kitchen Supplies
4.Grocery
5.Etc.
Will it be advisable for me to create an Item Catalog TABLE for each of the category instead of piling all the Items into just one Item Catalog TABLE?
The Designs I’m currently considering are:
A.)
TABLE SET 1 : Catalog of Items
Fields (ID, Name)
•TABLE Drinks
•TABLE Ice Cream
•TABLE Kitchen Supplies
•TABLE Grocery
•TABLE ETC
---------------------------------------------------
TABLE SET 2 : Movement IN/OUT of Items
Fields (Movement ID, Name, Date, IN-Amount, OUT-Amount)
•TABLE Drinks
•TABLE Ice Cream
•TABLE Kitchen Supplies
•TABLE Grocery
•TABLE ETC
B.)
TABLE 1: Catalog of Items
Fields (ID, Category, Name)
TABLE 2: Movement IN/OUT of Items
Fields (Movement ID, Name, Category, Date, IN-Amount, OUT-Amount)
I’m really more inclined to choice A because I just re-learned Access last month and will be creating my first serious database just now. I don’t want to choose a more complex table structure (choice B) that might cause problems with the DB later (as it will really be used to keep track of real-life inventory and might screw up their operations if it goes haywire). Is Design A viable? Or flawed?
Another question I have is with the structure of the Movement – IN/OUT table. Is this workable? My thought is just to let the user enter something like:
Drink [date] [IN] [OUT]
Coke [date] [2] [0]
Coke [date] [0] [1]
In the database, then compute current Quantity of the Item using a query (Sum[IN] – Sum[OUT]) . Will this work? I’m a bit apprehensive with this because I’m thinking I should have another TABLE that will store the actual inventory Quantity instead of the Quantity just being computed through query. But doing another TABLE for Quantity does complicate stuff a lot since it will have to determine which Quantity value gets added to or subtracted from based on many criteria. Will it be OK just to use the query to compute Quantity left?
Thank you so much for any help on this!

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.
Any input would be appreciated!

I use Access on a daily basis as an end user at work and am building my very first database for my woodworking business I started this year.
So what I am wanting to do is import my Excel inventory list to a table. Along with the categories I have in Excel, I have created inventory numbers for my products. Since I'm not exactly a businessman and accustomed to inventory systems, my inventory numbers just start with "AA" and go on up (I chose this as opposed to assigning numbers so customers aren't confused when they see a price tag).
Anyways, what I am doing is creating a Sales table and accompanying form for entering sales of each product. What I would like to happen is every time I make enter a record into the Sales form, I would like for the item to be deleted automatically from the inventory table.

Access Guru's:
I am a beginner at best with Access. (I'm using Access 2003) I have a small in home business as a second job making silk flower arrangements. I am now to the point that I need to track my inventory, quantity used, COGS, etc. Most of my arrangements are in gift shops on consignment.
In lieu of buying Quickbooks Manufacturing ($$$), I want to start tracking everything with Access so I can at least get some nice reports at tax time.
The problem I am having is I cannot translate the tutorials that Microsoft supplies to this application, they only cover setting up basic tables. (ie: in a retail/inventory application - do I set up 1 table, 1 table & subtable, 2 tables????)
I set up a table so far with 4 basic inventory fields:
Item description (record includes: flower, vase, foam, etc) / Color / Qty on Hand / Cost. Then (on the same table) finished goods fields of: Qty Used / Arrangement # / Qty Left / Sold for. While trying to figure out how I am going to track how much each arrangement cost, I'm not sure this set up will work.
I probably went into too much detail for my question, but I wanted to give some kind of background. Is there a CD/Book/Tutorial that specifically guides one through setting up a retail/inventory table?
Sorry so wordy.

I'm trying to add items received to my inventory table. If the item is already in the table, I just want to update the number and cost etc. If the item is not in the inventory table I want to add it. My problem is determining which item in the source table is already in the target table so I can either update of add. how to find an item number in target table by looping through the source table?
Here's the code I've written which doesn't work.
Dim I As Integer
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim rs2 As Recordset
Set rs = Nothing
Set rs2 = Nothing
Set db = CurrentDb

I have a database that I use to put in orders for our shop and keep track of our part informations as well as paint and packing materials. Everything works good on this but I am trying to create a table for adjusting quantities on hand for packing material based on the part quantities and for adjusting paint in stock based on information given to me after the job is run.
There is already a relationship between parts and packing material as well as parts and paint. When I put an order in I would like to have it adjust out that many packing materials that are related to that part. Once a job is run I need to be able to adjust out the amount of paint used.
For the paint side of this I want it to track the paint used by order, we are trying to get a grasp on how much paint we are using for parts so it is important for me to know how much and when.
I am thinking I need a table that connects paint to orders and has quantities in it, then create a query and do the calculations from there... I do not know how to accomplish that but it sounds like it could be right...

I have a list box that allows multiple selections [Inventory]. I also have a combo box that has multiple selections [Shows].
Right now, user selects from list box and from a combo box and clicks a button. On button click, the items from the list box are associated with the PK from the combo and stored in a junction table. This allows me to quickly associate many inventory items to one show.
I realized that there I currently have no way to prevent duplicate Inventory+show records in the junction table besides having a composite key. This would be fine except no records get inserted into the junction table if there's a duplicate entry.
Ideally, I think that the user should select from the combo box [Shows]. This should narrow down what shows up in the list box [Inventory] in a way that Inventory items already associated with the show are not displayed.
If I have 10 Inventory items and Inventory items 1-5 are already associated with Show 1; after I select the combo box, the list box only displays Inventory items 6-10.
Here's the associated code
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub cmdAddRecords_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
[Code] ....

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a chart in a form, this is not a problem, however, the chart types available are a bit limited compared to if i inserted a Microsoft Excel Chart object.
I'd do that except I'm trying to create a chart based on a query.
Is there a way to make the chart wizard use the Microsoft Excel Chart object as its chart creator so I have access to the chart types available in that object?
any assistance much appreciated.
thanks all.
regards
keji

I need to create a Pivot Chart using the data from more than one table.
The main table has fields including 'Job name', 'task name' and 'hours worked'.
The second table (linked to the first by 'task name') has a field 'allocated hours'.
I would like to plot the 'total time worked' against 'allocated hours' (in a stacked bar style chart), in order to monitor time usage.

Hi,
I have table (Table A) whose column (Column A) is a lookup table linked to Table B. Column A's type is of number. Table B has 2 columns. Column B1 is of type autonumber (set as primary). Column B2 is of type text. When I am populating Column A, I select from a drop down list which shows the values of Column B2. Column A will populate with what appears to be Column B2 values. However, whenever I create a chart with Column A, the values in the legend always show the numeric value of Column A, not the values of Column B2 as I want. This occurs in pivot charts as well. Here is an example:
In this case
Table A = A_Incident_Main_Table
Column A = A_Incident_Main_Table.System_Name
TRANSFORM Count(*) AS [Count]
SELECT (Format([Date],"mmm"" '""yy")) AS Expr1
FROM A_Incident_Main_Table
GROUP BY (Year([Date])*12+Month([Date])-1), (Format([Date],"mmm"" '""yy"))
PIVOT A_Incident_Main_Table.System_Name;
Here is another example:
SELECT A_Incident_Main_Table.System_Name, Count(*) AS [Count]
FROM A_Incident_Main_Table
GROUP BY A_Incident_Main_Table.System_Name;
A_Incident_Main_Table.System_Name is poplulated in with values from the lookup table (Table B). In both examples, I see only the numeric values in the legend, not the text values of Table B.
Any ideas on how to get around this?

I have a status form which I use to show users the progress of various routines as they are performed. It's pretty basic; just a textbox and a couple of coloured labels; one for the outline ('things to be done') and one for the progress so far ('things done').
I have a function which I call periodically during the runtime of the routine which passes as arguments the text to display in the textbox (i.e. a description of which 'thing' is being worked on at that time) and two long integers representing what is 'done' and what is 'to be done' (i.e. 3 'things' done out of a total of 7)
So if I can divide a function into 7 distinguishable 'parts', I would call that function 7 times during the life of the overall process to show the updated status each time.
The function redraws the labels (i.e. sets the width of the 'done' label as a proportion of the width of the 'to be done' label, based on the ratio of the two arguments) and repaints the form. So you get a nice animated progress bar which can be easily controlled by calling the same function and just incrementing the 'done' argument each time.
Now - and admittedly this is purely aesthetic and for my own curiosity rather than anything fundamental - I was wondering if it were possible to represent this progress as a 3D pie chart rather than a horizontal bar (label)?
For no other reason than I think it would look really tidy.
I know it's possible to add a chart object to a form but the chart wizard insists I link the chart to a table or query. In this instance, I don't want to do that; I merely want to draw a very basic pie chart based on the two values passed as arguments to the status function.
