I'm Not Quite Sure How To Explain This

Aug 24, 2007

I am building a database that will tell the company what items to dispatch to the customer first.

It’s a food company. So getting products out on time is important. I will try explain it.

Say the food company makes a batch of 30 apple tarts. This collection of products has a set batch number with all the relevant information attached.
For example
Batch no 4457 - qty 30 - created 10/10/07 - use by 10/11/07
Batch no 4458 - qty 30 - created 11/10/07 - use by 11/11/07

Now lets say customer (joe Bloggs) orders 35 apple tarts

The food company wants to take all the first batch (4457) and 5 from the second batch (4458)

The will have an order sheet with the following
Apple tart batch 4457 - 30
Apple tart batch 4458 - 5

After the order is gathered it will be given an order number of say order 8897

The company can now go back and look at order 8897 and see what was shipped in that order and what the batch numbers where for all products.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Explain Query

Oct 17, 2006

Hi all,

I was recently asked to rewrite some stuff and i was wondering if the query below can be expressed with just ( SELECT, FROM, WHERE, GROUP BY ) Instead of JOIN.
Someone else wrote the query below and Joins always confuse me ...
Thanks in advance


SELECT Grpoffic.CODE, Evoter.precinct, Evoter.grp, IIf(evoter.style Is Not Null,evoter.style,evoter.[activator code]) AS ballot, Evoter.party, Evoter.[date voted] AS [voted date], Evoter.certnum AS [voter id], Evoter.name, Evoter.address, Evoter.[ev location] AS [Location voted], Vote_status.status, AB_CODE_reason.reason AS [absentee reason]
FROM Vote_status, AB_CODE_reason RIGHT JOIN (Evoter INNER JOIN Grpoffic ON (Evoter.precinct = Grpoffic.pct) AND (Evoter.grp = Grpoffic.grp)) ON AB_CODE_reason.code = Evoter.reason
ORDER BY Grpoffic.CODE, Evoter.precinct, Evoter.grp, Evoter.name;

Month Number: Mid([Date],4,2)

I also have the SQL that goes with the query:

SELECT Mid([Date],4,2) AS [Month Number], Count(tblOrders.Order_Number) AS CountOfOrders, Sum(tblBikes.Price) AS SumOfPrice, Format([Date],"mmmm") AS [Month Name]
FROM tblOrders INNER JOIN (tblBikes INNER JOIN [Order/Product] ON tblBikes.Model_Number = [Order/Product].Model_Number) ON tblOrders.Order_Number = [Order/Product].Order_Number
GROUP BY Mid([Date],4,2), Format([Date],"mmmm");

Help With A Query... Hard To Explain

Mar 29, 2008

Hi all!, i would really appriciate it if you could help me out. I have this complex query... in one table i have dates and costs associated that show when fuel was put into the system

such as:
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/20/2008 - $100
1/25/2008 - $150

I then have another table that has data when fuel was taken out of the system
such as:
1/2/2008 -- ($50)
1/3/2008 -- ($20)
1/4/2008 -- ($10)

what i need is a query that is able to show a running tab on the fuel tank and how much fuel is in it...

so for example if it could spit out a result such as
1/1/2008 -- $200
1/2/2008 -- $150
1/3/2008 -- $130
1/4/2008 -- $120

If this is convoluted i can upload a little database..

Thanks! (Here is the current query i am using but its not working right.

SELECT DatePart("yyyy",[purchase_Date]) AS AYear, DatePart("m",[Purchase_Date]) AS AMonth, DatePart("d",[Purchase_Date]) AS ADay, DSum("gallons_purchased","purchase_fuel_tbl","DatePart('d', [purchase_Date])<=" & [ADay] & " And DatePart('m',
[purchase_Date])<=" & [AMonth] & " And DatePart('yyyy',
[purchase_Date])<=" & [AYear] & "") AS RunTot, fuel_use_tbl.fuel_date, fuel_use_tbl.external_ID, fuel_use_tbl.gallons, [RunTot]-[fuel_use_tbl].[gallons] AS cur_Value
FROM (tank_tbl RIGHT JOIN purchase_fuel_tbl ON tank_tbl.tank_ID = purchase_fuel_tbl.tank_ID) LEFT JOIN fuel_use_tbl ON tank_tbl.tank_ID = fuel_use_tbl.tank_ID
GROUP BY DatePart("yyyy",[purchase_Date]), DatePart("m",[Purchase_Date]), DatePart("d",[Purchase_Date]), fuel_use_tbl.fuel_date, fuel_use_tbl.external_ID, fuel_use_tbl.gallons
ORDER BY DatePart("yyyy",[purchase_Date]), DatePart("m",[Purchase_Date]), DatePart("d",[Purchase_Date]);

Difficult To Explain Yet Simple Problem...!

Dec 1, 2005

Hi all

I have a financial database that gets downloaded transactions off the internet from our accounts. The problem is that the transaction payer/payee is not always unique and needs to be classified. This is easy done using If statements but I really want to enter parts of the string into a table and have a query return a category for this payer/payee. Example:
I want this: AUTO ONE CLARKSON CLARKSON WA AU006495
to be recognised as: car parts

or with this tranaction:
CLARKSON MINI MART CLARKSON553908
look for "mini mart" and return supermarket

This step will make classifying transactions a lot simpler and user friendly.
thanks

Can Someone Please Explain Basic Query Logic To Me?

May 11, 2006

I am not sure if I understand this...

I have MainTable, on which I base MainForm. I would like to have MainForm show only the records that have a null value in CertainField. If I write NullQuery to select only those records, can I redirect MainForm to NullQuery? Well, I know I can do that... but how does MainTable get updated with new records if MainForm is based on NullQuery????

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Pulling My Hair Out! Hope I Can Explain

Jul 16, 2005

Let see if I can explain my goal. I've been fighting with this for some time with no resolve. In the included DB has a table that represents the fields that will be queried in the real DB. It shows records of one of many employees that were "tested" (shopped) on a date and whether it was a successfull shop or not. My goal is in three parts.

1)A query that goes through each employee and returns the records with the check box in SuccessYes checked (Yes) back to the last unchecked box, not including the unchecked box. In the example given the last (most recent) 5 records would be returned. If the shop of date 1/18/2005 was not checked, it would only return the last 2 records. Basically, I'm looking for a way to have a report that shows everyone's current successes in a row. It could be any number.

2)A query very similar but it returns only those employees that have the current successes in a row totalling 5 and where the field "Award5_Paid" is NOT checked (they have not been paid their reward). From there it should be easy to do one for the 10 in a row.

3)If I've got a form open (or...?) where I can place a command button, that when clicked, it appends the selected records with checks in the appropriate boxes for being paid. Example: If a set of employees come up in the query with 5 successfull shops in a row because the "Award5_Paid" field is unchecked, then I need to pay them. Click the button and the Award5_Paid field gets checked in THOSE RECORDS ONLY so that the next time I run the query, they won't show up and get paid twice. Issue? What's the coding or SQL or ??? that's run when clicked.


I hope that makes sense. I've been running around in circle trying to figure this one out. Maybe it can't be done, but if it can, I know some of you know how.
As always, thanks for the assistance.

-Jim
