EPOS/Stock Database Questions
Nov 30, 2007Dear Reader
I am a realtivly new user and I do not know alot of things about Access
I have set up a database, and within this database, i have a table with my product details (the products are books, details include: ISBN, Title, Stock Level, and Price), I also have a table with customer's information (Name, Contact details, etc). I have created an order form, from which a user selects the customers name from a drop down list, and then he selects his name, and finally the date. Following this the user then works within a subform.
This subform has the following details, Order ID, Book ID, and Quantity Ordered. After this I want there to be a subtotal. I have no idea as to how to set this up, but I am assuming that I would need a query or something, to look up the price of the books, and then to multiply it by the quantity that the customer wants. Following this ideally I would like a small box on the main form saying the total value of the order.
Would their be anyway, to add the book ISBN number into the subform, where the user could either type in the ISBN number or select from a combo box the book title, but either way, both fields are updated, what ever method is used.
From this subform, I would like to be able to print out an order summary/invoice. This would contain all the books ordered by the customer in the current transaction, as well as the customer’s information, and the total of the order.
And my final question is probably the hardest one. Is their anyway (possibly by pressing a button) to automatically minimize the stock value on the products table, by the quantity chosen by the user in the order form? And if the quantity wanted is greater than the amount in stock, for a message to appear on the Order Summary/Invoice stating "On Order"
Using the above method, would it then be possible through the creation of a query to show what customers have ordered in the past, in a tab on the customer's details form.
Thanking you in advanced

Electronic Signature Help
Jan 8, 2008We have an Access 2003 application that creates a report. This report is currently being printed, signed and then tossed in a file cabinet. We are very interested in purchasing some kind of electronic signature device. I've been searching all the websites that have these devices but I'm not sure I can narrow down the best one. The report is printed when it's time to ship product which means there is a key field on the report. We can save the report as a Word document giving the file name the key field so that it is unique every time the report is previewed. We'd like to be able to either have the electronic signature open this document and add the signature or store the signature somehow with the same file name as the report (Word document). Does anyone know the best device to handle this situation?
Thanks!

Electronic Funds Transfer
Apr 27, 2005A customer wants to do electronic funds transfer from an accounts receivable system that I wrote for them. The only information that I have gotten from their bank is that the data should be in ACH (automated clearinghouse) format. I have never dealt with this before, but I assumed that I would just have to output the data in probably an ASCII file. I have been searching the net, but have only seen software or services that handle this. I haven't found any definitive information on exactly what the details of ACH format are. I was also surprised not to find any threads here about this. I'm sure there are plenty of those who have already dealt with this.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Incorporting Electronic Signature
Jun 23, 2007Hi All, This isnt really a problem i have, but a general question.
I am developing a Medical Database using Access, one of the requirements that I would like included is the ability to incorporate Electronic Signatures on various Forms/Reports (ie Medical Records etc, this is required by Law for Legal reasons when substantiating a Law Suit against the Practice). Although we could carry on printing the Report for the Doctor to Sign, current legislation/Legal Law now accepts encrypted Electronic Signatures via a tablet or the like.
Has anyone incorporated this into Access, perhaps a lead to a website that has products designed for this would be useful.
To Date, i can only find products that integrate with C++ or Visual basic Applications.
Forms :: DSum - Calculate Purchase Quantity With Criteria Of Product And Quantities Before Sale Date
Nov 2, 2014I have a form with subform . I want to calculate purchase quantity with criteria of product and quanties before sale date. If i use with specified date it gives correct result.but if i use field address it ignores date criteria

Tables :: Primary Web Based Inventory System - Update Raw Data From Another System
Mar 13, 2014I have our primary web based inventory system that I am exporting to Excel and using this as an import to Access for the main raw data for my database. This being inventory it changes daily so I am updating this table every day. When I try to append the table it ads all the records. I am wanting an easy way to add only the new records/take out the ones that are no longer there. Basically update the table with what is currently there.The only have I have found to do this is by running non-matching queries and update queries.

Sep 21, 2007:)Hello,
I have one Access table called plan_location where it contains the following columns: shape_id (number), seqnum (number), xcoord (number) and ycoord(number). The shape_id is a individual number for each planname, the seqnum is the number of points in the plan and the xcoord ycoord indicate the x,y location on the ground.
See example:
shape_idseqnumxcoordycoord
700609719.4294818231.424
701609745.694818251.119
702609755.9194818230.81
703609781.7674818243.946
704609822.6834818254.656
705609871.714818261.276
706609879.4324818226.623
707609814.9484818218.313
708609763.8424818198.827
709609730.0664818165.801
7010609698.2784818123.723
7011609668.3594818142.025
7012609714.9354818201.641
7013609729.6864818214.026
7014609720.4294818240.424
In the above example, although this is only one plan of thousands, the xcoord/ycoord value for seqnum=0 is not the same as the xcoord/ycoord value found in seqnum=14, thus this indicates an error.
I need to find a way to isolate those shape_id's with the beginning seqnum of 0 that is not the same as the highest seqnum of 14, in this case. The seqnum can range from 0 to any number, depending on the number of points.
If the seqnum of 0's xcoord/ ycoord values to NOT match the highest seqnum's xcoord/ycoord values, I need to find a way to insert the next highest seqnum and add the same xcoord/ycoord values found for seqnum = 0
How can this be done?
Thanks in advance..........CementCarver:confused:
Not sure how this is done..............
Starting Point For Db.
Jul 27, 2005Hi All.
This may be a bit of a strange one, but was wondering if anyone had any ideas.
I would like to create a db which is a bit like the directions bit of multimap.co.uk
As per the attached jpg, i would like a db so I can input a starting box and end box, and it would tell me the shortest distance, longest distance, route via boxes etc.
e.g
Box A as start and Box F as end. Shortest route is via Box D, longest route via boxes B and C etc.
The db would obviously not for measuring distances between boxes!!!....but thought this may explain it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Frank.
A Point In The Right Direction Plz.
Nov 14, 2006Not sure what this covers so if someone could point me in the right direction, so I can get started.
I want to do a search of customers through a button on a form with names, and there you get a list of customer that match your criteria. When you click or double click on that customer you get sent to the main form with all the customer details on it.
thx

SQL Stuck Point
Oct 17, 2006Hello all,
I am currently working on an sql query to find employees which handled more orders than average in a certain half year. For arguments sake the half year is august-dec1997. I will use two queries, one to calculate COUNT and one for the avg:
So far I have the COUNT query sorted:
SELECT Employees.EmployeeID, Count(Orders.EmployeeID) AS CountOfOrders
FROM Employees, Orders
WHERE (((Employees.EmployeeID)=[Orders].[EmployeeID]))
GROUP BY Employees.EmployeeID;
However, I am uncertain how to proceed from here and find the >AVG part of this query. Any help would be appreciated- thankyou :o
To add to this I think the next table should be like this:
SELECT qrycountOfOrders.EmployeeID, Employees.FirstName, Employees.LastName, qrycountOfOrders.CountOfOrders,
WHERE
FROM qrycountOfOrders, Employees
WHERE qrycountOfOrders.EmployeeID = Employees.EmployeeID;
But I am unsure where to put the >=AVG...
All Problems Point To This
Aug 3, 2006My Access DB is built and works great. All problems that I have seem to revolve around the 2 tables that I link to Excel spreadsheets. The spreadsheets come from downloads. The problems are:
Can't format fields in a linked table. and the download comes unformatted.
Can't make DB Multi-User because the Linked Spreadsheets restrict access to more than one user at a time.
Is it possible (Practical) to build a macro that would access the spreadsheet on a regular basis and import it (Overwriting the previous data in the table) into Access?
I would really appreciate anyone that has a solution. I am ready to pull out the last 3 hairs I have on my head.
Point Me In The Right Direction
Sep 1, 2006Dont use access much but I have basic db dev. skills. That said, here's my dillema:
I have a front desk entry form fro service calls. There is a entry field for customerID. I would like to auto populate f_name, l_name etc... from just entering customerID. I know what I would do in an SQL situation, but how does that transfer over to access? Any help would be great. Thanks.
Remove Zero Before The Decimal Point
Mar 9, 2008Hello,
I have a lot of values that look like this: 0.524, 0.673, and 0.398. I hate to look at these numbers with the zero before the decimal point and would like to find out how to remove them. I know that it's possible in Excel, but I'm not sure of how to do it in Access.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Decimal Point Problems
Aug 7, 2007I am working on a database that tracks things for a welding shop. Because of this I am using heights in millimeters and decimal points are necessary. The page I am using is an input form with a subform tied to a specific record. I can under no circumstance get my decimals to stay put in the input form or in the table. I have tried changing to decimal and putting the decimal to two and the precision to five, long integers with decimals to 2. Formatting with #.## so it maintains it in the text box... but nothing has worked. Has anyone run into this problem?
Thanks

Decimal Point Issue On Currency
Jan 12, 2007ok.. this is not a hugely important issue, however.. it is a slight annoyance that i would like to resolve if it is possible..most of my currencies will be whole numbers like twenty pounds or five pounds..so i chose to set the decimal point to 0 which displays it like this..£50which is better then setting it on auto (£50.00) which my user does not like..(uneccessary zeros)however.. every now and then there will be a carpark cost of £2.30..if i set the decimal point to 0 then £2.30 will display as £2 which is no good.. if i set the decimal point to 1 then it will display it as £2.3 which is no good..so is there a way to make sure that all currencies display as decimal point 0 values.. eg £34.. £2.. £145 and if a price happens to involve some pence.. such as two pounds 30 pence.. then display it as £2.30 or £103.55... etc....i hope that is clear
