Identify Changes In Data Between Consecutive Rows?
Jul 19, 2015
I have data for multiple account numbers (for work) and dates, and I need to identify when there is a change in account number in order to add a new field with a count - which counts sequentially starting with 1 and then starts over at 1 when the account number changes.
I need to sort out the repeat customer, e.g. I have a list of customer's name, like Nike, Emerson, Alcan, etc... and if they sign another contract with my company again this year, I will name it like Nike 05, Emerson 05, etc...
So how can I get the result of how many customers have signed the 2nd contract with us. I have no clue now... :confused:
I have been consistently getting an error almost every month when I try to load some data that has been input into access, then I have it linked to an excel sheet so that whenever I refresh, the access data imports into excel and updates my pivots, charts, etc.
When my data entry ppl enter data, sometime they forget to enter a code, or something, and when they forget to enter that, it creates some kind of error in the query. The query still runs in access, but shows something similar to " #ERROR#" in the field IF I ever do find it in the access query. The issue is that I cant filter to find that error. I literally have to scan and scroll through thousands of lines of data to try and find this error. When I try to refresh the data in excel, the following error message pops up;
"Data could not be retrieved from the database. Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make Sure the external database is available, and then try the operation again."
In past months I can usually find the #ERROR# by scrolling through access and finding it. Some months I have EXTREME trouble finding the error. It can take hours out of my work day. Is there any way to more easily identify which line these errors are in rather than scrolling through thousands of lines of data? Is there a way to still export the data to excel with the errors still in them?
I have atable the is storing ID, attendance_year and meeting code. Iw ould like to query the table and identify the IDs that have 10 consecutive attendance years no matter when it may have occured. So IDs have more than 10 row of data but not necassrily 10 years in a row.
Firstly I have placed this in the general section as I am not quite sure if any vba would need to be created for the following. I would also like to report on the information but the answer may not be done at report level.
Anyway, I have created a very basic database that holds staff attendance and their reason for being absent.
I am trying to get a very simple thing done in Access and I must have spent almost over 2 days of Internet time to do so. My problem is that I need to get the difference in 2 records to show in a query.
e.g. MyTable has 2 fields: 1. MyDate 2. MtrReading
Everyday I enter date in MyDate and a number in MtrReading. And I need to find out the difference between today's MtrReading and Yesterday's Mtr Reading.
I am having a problem, probably due to my inexperience with Access. Here is the seniero:
-I have a form/table set up for operators to enter numbers on a daily basis. -I am setting up queries/reports to display not only the entered data, but also calculated values from the entered values --I have no idea on how to subtract a previous day's value from today's value and report that value. - Since Access gives no "ownership" to any value I do not know how to reference yesterday's value in today's calculation.Any Ideas?
Hello, I am trying to generate some query result on a form. My DB consists of the following fields : tradeID and profit/loss. How do i make a query to find the Maximum consecutive number of wins and losses in the database and display the results on a form?
Would really appreciate it if any of you have tried to sort and display results for finding consecutive number of events in any database!
I have a Student Attendance table and it would be great if I could get some way of automatically determining if the attendance status is Absent - Unexcused for two or more consecutive sessions in order for someone to get in contact with the student.
I have a table of employees, and dates they worked on. These are seasonal employees who want to get in as many days as possible before the season ends, but regulation states they must take a compulsory rest day after x days.So I need to create a query that can return the list of employees, with a count of consecutive workdays up until current date.
If today is 20/09/2013, and Johnny worked on, 19, 18, 17, 15, 14, 13, his count must be 3, because he was absent on 16. Therefore only from 17 through 19 is regarded as consecutive.
If Peter worked 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, his count would be 7, because unlike Johnny, Peter still worked on 16.
I have a query which is grouped by year, facility name, and billing type and needs to display several columns of aggregate values for each of these, e.g. count of cases, sum of cases reviewed, average length of stay, etc. It would look like this:
2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5 2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2 2003 DEF Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3 2003 DEF Hospital Billed Per Diem 56 10 2.1
However, if a facility does not have any Per Diem billings for example, how can I generate a row for it anyway? I cannot use a crosstab since I have multiple different values to display. I tried the following union query:
SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,NumberOfCases,AverageLen gthOfStay,CasesReviewed,CasesDenied,AvgOflos,[Billing Eligibility] FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDAC UNION SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,0,0,0,0,0,null FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACDRG UNION SELECT YR,FacilityName,BilledDRG,0,0,0,0,0,null FROM qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACPD ORDER BY YR, FacilityName, BilledDRG;
where qryDistHIVCasesStatsDAC is the original query,
qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACDRG shows the year, facility name, and "Billed DRG" qryDistHIVCasesStatsDACPD shows the year, facility name, and "Billed Per Diem"
but then I would get e.g. 2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5 2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 0 0 0 2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2 2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0 2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3 2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 0 0 0 2003 GHI Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0
what I want is: 2003 ABC Hospital Billed DRG 123 22 6.5 2003 ABC Hospital Billed Per Diem 23 0 4.2 2003 GHI Hospital Billed DRG 456 120 12.3 2003 GHI Hospital Billed Per Diem 0 0 0
In other words, for each year, each facility should have a row "Billed DRG" and a row "Billed Per Diem" and only one row of each.
Thanks for your assistance. I hope I have explained this adequately.
Column A Column B Column C Column D 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010101002000000 RF 010101002000000 RF 010101029000000 CU 1*010101001000000 CF 10 010101351010000 RF 2*010101354000000 CF 11 2*010101354000000 CF 13 010101358000000 CY 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010401328100000 CF
NOTE in the actual data won't be there it is just to show you what I am referring to.
Is there any way in another column in a query to say if Column A repeats itself somewhere else in Column A AND if those two that are repeated both have a "CF" code add column C (which is just an amount for each number)
So for example in this data there are 2 numbers that repeat themself that have CF codes. For these I would need to total them in column D for the first number resulting in:
Column A Column B Column C Column D 1*010101001000000 CF 5 20 010101002000000 RF 010101002000000 RF 010101029000000 CU 1*010101001000000 CF 10 010101351010000 RF 2*010101354000000 CF 11 23 2*010101354000000 CF 13 010101358000000 CY 1*010101001000000 CF 5 010401328100000 CF
Hi there, Some scene setting to my problem. I have a corporate system numbering invoices consecutively globally. For a subsidiary in Poland this presents a problem - all invoices for the subsidiary must be consecutive. ie. where the globally issued invoices for Poland might be 1,4,5,7 these need to be renumbered before issue in Poland.
It gets more complicated as the Polish Office standard is to invoice in the format "PL/Year/Month/Number" with the Number restarting from 1 for each month.
My database is very simple. Table 1 = Link table to Oracle corporate data Table 2 = Local table of invoices already produced (Global invoice number and date recorded)
I have a filter to find all new invoices (unmatched items), a report to print them and an Append query to populate the new items to the Local table.
My challenge: (1) to recreate the Polish numbering scheme and (2) have it consistently when existing data goes up to mid month and a new append operation has to follow the invoice number sequence.
Any ideas? I guess Autonumber is no good and I have little array experience.
I want to place a control in a report footer that will return the highest number of consecutive weeks that a profit was earned. The database has fields named WeekNo and Net. The Net field contains positive values (profit) and negative values (losses). The WeekNo field is an integer from 1 to 52 designating the week number.
For example if the figure in the Net field is a positive number I want the control to count the number of consecutive weeks that a profit was earned. I know how to get the value of total weeks that a profit was earned; this is not what I am looking for. The control must return the highest number of CONSECUTIVE weeks that a profit was earned over the year.
I am setting up VBA to run multiple append queries in consecutive order. The append queries are supposed to pull a four digit number off of a form that will allow them to know which data to append. I want the number to be stored as text to correspond with the tables I am working with, but I am having trouble getting the form to work.
Here is how I would like it to work:
I enter my 4 digits in the text box on the form. Say "1305" for May 2013. I want to then run my vba (my queries update using the forms!txtupdatequery!textbox I have put in the criteria of the queries) and all of them run.
I enter my date (as a number but I want it to be text) and the form gives me a #name? error.
I am trying to create a form that creates an automatic identifier with a value one greater than the previous identifier. I was able to create something that updates in batches of two: That is, I end up with identifiers that go 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, etc. How do I get it to create consecutive identifiers (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.)?
Hi, I have data from a form on my website in a text file, that corresponds to each visitor's input, each 13 lines in the form belongs to one visitor, as shown (twice) at the end of this message.
What I would like to do is have each visitors inputs translated to ONE row, with 13 columns/fields each. It could be appended to the same table or preferably generated in a new one. Note, there are no blank fields, some won't have data after their title, i.e. addy_line_2: is often blank, but at the very least, addy_line_2: or another field name is always there.
It would ROCK if I could also automatically take the name of each field out, i.e. each name is continuous characters up to the : (colon) ...
Thanks in advance, my Access knowledge is obviously limited, I'm sure this is fairly simple!
The fields:
Phone: 213-555-1212 Submit: Continue addy_line_1: 1000 Melrose Place addy_line_2: badge: city: Los Angeles email: homegroup: name: program: state: CA volunteer: zip: Phone: Submit: Continue addy_line_1: addy_line_2: badge: city: email: homegroup: name: program: state: volunteer: zip:
thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you !!
I have a crazy question. Is there a way to write a query that would display data rows with common ID's as if they were columns in a query? It's for visually representing row data as if they were one record in a list. Basically, I would like to take the following data...
fldID fldDetail fldValue 1 Shape Round 1 Color Blue 2 Shape Square 2 Color Red
And display it in a recordsource like each is one record: ID Shape Color 1 Round Blue 2 Square Red
I can't get my head around this so I'm looking for some help if possible please, there are two questions, the first is:
When in the query, I want the criteria for the date selection to be a question, ie. "[Week Start Date?]" but I want the actual criteria selection to be from the start date plus 5 days, the only way I've done that so far is to do ">=[From?] and <=[To?]", which uses two questions and I don't seem to be able to do ">=[Week Start Date?] and <=[Week Start Date?]+5" which seems basically correct, but I expect I'm writing it incorrectly (basic access knowledge I'm afraid :( )
The second question (after I've got the 5 day date criteria sorted) is that the query produces a table that shows basically the following:
Name Store Date Visited Tom Bury 18/01/06 Tom Bury 19/01/06 Tom Diss 20/01/06 Dick Thetford 18/01/06 Harry Diss 20/01/06
The query is based on a part week period with the starting date ALWAYS a Monday, so no more than Mon-Sat will appear, I want to put the information into a table or query, so the result ends up as:
Name Store Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Tom Bury 18/01/06 19/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Tom Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Dick Thetford 18/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank' Harry Diss 'Blank' 'Blank' 20/01/06 'Blank' 'Blank' 'Blank'
*Where the blanks are simply left empty, rather than putting in the word 'blank'
Essentially converting the "[From?]" (as stated earlier) or "[Week Start Date?]" to Monday, that date + 1 to Tuesday, etc, BUT putting multiple dates relating to name and store criteria onto one record :eek:
Beyond me I'm afraid, any pointers would be seriously appreciated, I expect I'm approaching the problem from the wrong angle.
