How To Combine Products Of Invoice Into Single Invoice
Oct 10, 2012
I am practising making relational databases as I haven't used them before.
The mock database I am creating is based around a cleaning company.
I am trying to make a form which will display all of the bookings a certain cleaner has in the future. I want it to be able to display a booking along with the services (Windows cleaning, vacuum cleaning etc...) the customer wants.
At the moment, it is displaying each service (Window cleaning, vacuum cleaning etc...) as separate result on the form and it is not combined. They both have the same booking_ID from the booking table. How can I combine them?
It is far easier to understand what I mean by looking at the database (Attached). Take a look at the form I have created and then click the > arrow at the bottom to see what I mean.
I have a main form and subform. The main form is bound to a table of invoices and the subform to a table of invoice items. I'm picking up the invoice number from the form to save it to the invoice items table, so I need to save the record for the invoice before saving the invoice items from the subform.
Please suggest me how to do it.Any code or sample like this. I don't know how to add new row of product e.t.c. Please help me as I have never done any programming in ms access before (Done most of web development,asp.net,jsp,coldfusion)
I don't know whether you can help :D But i am in need of some code/guidence, or a way to go about trying to do what i want to achieve.
Basically, i am creating a invoice producing software in Microsoft Access, based upon Computing parts resaleing.
Because the supplier, i use changes the prices daily, when i type the products into the Parts Table, the price being typed in will change for the next customer to have the same part.
Basically because i am using this software to produce Profit and Loss, The invoice will be looking back at the Parts table, and changing the unit costs for invoices which are say weeks old.
I am wondering whether i can "lock" the invoice so it cannot be updated from the Parts list and keep the profit the same, so i get an accruate result when i come to look at it.
hi all .. i'm new here , I'm not familier with the access so i found it's better to ask the profi. pplz and here i come to u i'm better in Excel anyway here is the steps of what i try to do and i already attached a simple example this invoice form will include the sales throught the month . so it's monthly and here is what i try to do 1-a form to Enter in it the Coustmer name | project |product descp. |measure|uni.price|total 2-i may have more than 1 item in the same invoice. 3-invoice serial no. to be like yyyymm###### i don't know is that able cause when i tried to make an invoice it make on a WEB Page and saved it in some place , i thought i can be in the program it self , and i attached also the form of how the invoice could be , anyhelp ??
Table 1: open invoices I want to use this as the base table to check against
Table 2: invoices for a month containing all details.
I want to use column 5 in table 2 to bump against 1 and matching numbers from table 2 will be returned in a query with all the column details from table 2. The problem is column 5 has duplicate invoices so it can't be set as PK. If these duplicate invoices match on the open invoice report they must be included as well...
I also ran into problems importing table 2. I had some type conversion errors when importing... I tried to change all columns to text in excel it helped a little bit.... In Access when importing the data type is greyed out... any suggestions...
Like I said I am sure this is easy for you pros...
Hi There I Have an Invoice Form Invoice Head And Subform.
Calculation In Invoice_Subform Depend On A Field In Invoice Head. I Need A Code If That Field Changes A Code Will Be Triggred To Check Every Row In The Subform And Change Calculation According To The New Condition
I want to be able to produce invoices from my client database, and be able to have more than one item on an invoice. Probably best I attach the db. frmLayClientDetails is the main form with a sub form where I want to display a summary of that client's invoicing. A button on the form footer opens another form where I want to be able to insert multiple lines on one invoice, then a summary of the invoice is returned in the main form's subform. I am getting a message to the effect that I cannot add the detail on the invoice because there isn't a corresponding invoice number in the invoice table. So I'm not sure just where the invoice number is generated. I will also need a calculated field to sum the items on the invoice, but haven't got to looking at this yet. Any help appreciated.
Thought I had sorted this, but now experiencing another problem. I am creating invoices from my db, invoices may have more than one line. So I have set up a form with client name, invoice number, invoice date on the main part of the form, then the invoice lines as a sub form. The two parts are not synchronising. I want the combo box to find the client for me. I suspect I have something that is really quite simple but fundamentally wrong with this combo box. And I may well have made a mess of it because I have fiddled with it so much. I am attaching the db so someone can take a look. My invoice form is frmInvoicehdr. Thanks in anticipation.
Since I posted my system last time I have started my system again because it was seriously messed up. I have now come to a point, like last time where I have a problem with the total on my Invoice/Order form and also i dont know how to use all the data from a 'created order' and make it into a report invoice to print off. Any help appriciated.:)
My system: Gamez New System (http://www.savefile.com/files/6286869)
OK OK I know this should be simple but as a self taught db person I cannot manage the simplest of forms. The problem is I cannot get my customer address to automatically fill in the spaces once I type or select customer from cbo box.
I am totally frustrated as this has taken 6 months of trying to work this out I have copied the Northwind invoice but that does not link in with my tables. I have studied Virginia Anderson The Complete Reference until some of the pages have fallen out, same for Access Inside Out. But none actually tell me step by step how to create an invoice form. Maybe I am thicker than two short planks!!!!!
The next problem is even if I forget the address part and just want to record the customer I put in the plant ordered details but I think I have missed out something as no details appear.
Could someone please look at db attached. Orders table will eventually be deleted as I did not have the foresight to look into future and this covers 2004 only. Once I get a form and table working correctly I will copy this info over. Itemsale table is something I copied from MYOB trying to link something up by using the exact structure of MYOB. Need to work on this further as I need to export info to MYOB.
ANY HELP (incluing psychiatric) would be appreciated.
Could some one help me attach file, it is too big even though compressed
I have couple of problems I need to be resolved and I hope someone here can be able to help me. I have an estimate (all form designed), that when I click the button export to internal invoice, I want the contents of all the estimate moved to the internal invoice and display the invoice, without getting an error cannot delete invoice because they are in a relationship. Does anyone know how to do this? Second then I am having a problem is when I click the button Display report for an invoice I don't want it to display ALLL THE REPORTS of the all the invoices in the database, just the current report for that invoice. This way for example, when I am in invoice number 2130, I don't want too, when I click the button Display Report, to scroll all the way to report of invoice number 2130 to print the invoice. That would be a big problem. Can anyone please help me?
Does anyone know where I can find Invoice Database Examples.
I am creating a Invoice Database at present and am having difficulties trying to work out how to do the final total.
I have many records for each inoice all linked by invoice number. I need to do a query of this table to show me all the invoice items for a particular invoice number then add all the individual item totals together to get a final total.
I have a small .mdb for invoicing. Till now I had to put invoice number, which had two parts, manually for the first part, for example 001 or 002 and automatically for the second part as Date part. So I had, for example 2006 or 2007. The complete number was, for example 001/2006 etc.
The problem was New Year. Now, all previous invoices from 2006 have 2007 extension and the first parts are not starting form 001 but they continue.
I have a project for a movie rental company, and I need to be able to account for rentals. So, how do I create an invoice (form or report) that will show ALL rentals for a customer when they check out, AND print it? I have an invoice table, a customer table (customer ID used) and a movie list table, and that works for the form I've got, IF the customer only rents ONE movie, but what if they rent like seven? I'm not sure how to update the "invoice" table to reflect that, then get all of the information into a the required report for printing. If more details are needed, respond and I'll post em, but I think that about covers it thanks in advance for anyones help! ttmmm
I have created Query so that i can make a report.Report is working fine. it will give me data for required month.I need to generate invoice and save it to a new table so that i can cross check that in future if required.
I have used a report wizard to create invoice format.Currently, when I run the report, it will generate all the other invoices continously (a bit like a continuous long roll of of toilet paper). However, I only need to print a particular invoice at a time.
1. How do I only print a particular invoice number, without having all the rest to be generated?
2. Is there a way to format the report settings into the print button on the form to print this particular invoice, where the form is showing the record?
I want to print 3 copies of a report named Invoice with different remark i.e. Customer Copy, Office Copy, Auditor Copy. I want to print all 3 copies with a single print command.
Can any one help me. Sample database is in attachmant.
I am hoping to have the Product_Name as a drop down of all the products which are available and would like the Unit_Cost to automatically lookup the unit cost of the respective Product. Could someone please help me as i dont know how to do it, at the moment its a case of the individual having to look at the unit cost within the Product_Name drop down, remember it and then enter it lol
Also, how do I have the Line_Total as a calculated field of the Quantity*Unit_Cost? Do I put it within the Order Details table (which handles the many-to-many) or within a query?
Any help or links directing me to answer would be great Many thanks in advance
I am trying to incorporate a field in my customer order form for "Invoice Number". Not every customer order form will have an invoice number.
The Invoice Number field will default as null, or blank. I want to make it so the Invoice Number gets automatically populated ONLY IF another field on the same form is populated with "X".
Also, I would like the Invoice Number to equal the Previous Record that has an invoice number + 1. For example, if the previous 5 client records did not have an invoice number (blank because the client's form did not have a certain field populated with "X"), but the previous 6th record had an invoice number of 1001, then the current invoice number would be 1002.
So far, I just have the Form for the underlying table created. I don't have the invoice field in the table created yet. Not too sure where to start.
Hi, I have a data entry form that needs to become an invoice form. The problem I have is that the background colour prints too, tried "print data only" option, but as it says on the tin, only the data is printed. Ideally I want the formatting, field headings, but not the background colour.
Is the only option to remove the background colour? Or should I create a "print" button that runs a report for the selected record?
I am trying to add a total to my order form but i am finding it a bit tricky, but once i have done this i also need to create an invoice, which should be simple enough but is quite difficult because of the way the system has been put together....
