Hy, I have this db where a user can purchase and item and total stock number needs to be updated.
I can calculate how many items are left but how to update the warehause table?
I can live without table updating, but if the same item is purchased multiple times my query return incorrect values as the number from which the formula subtracts is never changed.
See attached database.
I have a small stock control database built around a Northwind example. I am trying to build a query that displays items low on stock.
On my products form I have:
Min Order Level field (stored value)
Units on Hand (calculated value from products subform (units received-units sold)).
Q1: Do I use a query to calculate/display this?
Q2: How do I construct an expression to acheive this?
Any help much appreciated
Im trying to create a database so I can Monitor grocery items from different supermarkets in my area.
I have been doing this on Excel for a while now, and its time to do it properly.
The only issue I would have is when I enter data.
I want to be able to track the price changes on items. I have my own.
So for example. Each time i enter the price of an item, I want a time stamp with it. (being the date when i entered the item, should be automatic)...

So for example. Each time i enter the price of an item, I want a time stamp with it. (being the date when i entered the item, should be automatic).
I am trying to find out if there is a way to track the order in which items are selected from a list. I am a dabbler and any keyword searches that I can think of don't bring up what I am looking. So, here is what I am trying to do:
I have a table of symptoms with 3 fields (ID, Category, and Symptom).I have a combo box that will allows the user to pick a category (using select Distinct on category field). I then have a list box populated with all the symptoms that have a category of whatever the user selected. The problem I am having is that I need to somehow track the order in which the user selects symptoms and then save that order for future reference and to be printed on a report. The order is important because the most severe symptom needs to be listed first.
I have a query which is based on a tbl which has data on chemicals in storage. The query is based on two tbls as follows;
Main tbl
ProducdID
ChemicalName
Second tbl
Batch number
TransactionID
Transaction date
Purchased check box
Used check box,
expirydate
ProducdID
When a chemical is purchased a tick goes in the Purchased check box with the other relavant data. When a chemical is used a tick goes in the Used box along with other relevant data in the other fields. In essence each chemical will have only two records 1. a purchased record and 2.eventually a Used record.
I want the query to report on all chemical records which are still in stock. So it's not as simple as adding a True or False to either check boxes. Showing records which have ticks in the Purchased CB ,or not showing records with ticks in the Used CB, will still show a Chemical which has been Purchased but may have been used at a later date and is no longer in stock.
Any suggestions? I hope I haven't confused anyone with my problem?
I can use barcode scanning to track items through the process, on the condition that the relevant field on a form is highlighted.
The issue is I want the scanning/tracking with wireless scanners to be going on in the background while an operator can use the other functions of the database.
I'm thinking the solution is two computers, one to run the barcode scanning & tracking the other for the rest of the database functions. The problem is we only have one work PC and getting money for a new PC will be like pulling teeth.
Is there a one PC solution?
I'm completely new to Microsoft Access. This project was thrown my way. I have an accounting database to track payables, receivables, financials, and deliquencies/collections. Is there a way to generate a report for any of the items in the previous sentence that haven't been completed to keep track of workload.

This is my first posting to this forum and I hope someone will be able to help me out with this.
I have a table called FILETRANS in a DB.Essentially this table is to track the in-flow and out-flow of files in a documentation unit.
The schema of the table is as follows
Filetrans_id Pk int Auto
Files_id int
Filetransdate date
Filestatus_id int
A filestatus can either be 1(IN) or 2 (out)
I need a query that will give me a list of all files whose last recorded status is 2(out) and vice versa.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I would like to track the revision history of table records. To do so, I have created tables with two-key fields. A typical table is tblPO_Data. The first key field is PO_Number and the second key field is PO_Revision. Data fields follow.
A key element of this table is that each record may have any number of data fields left blank AND later revisions may only show the "changed" field values.
To Illustrate tblPO_Data:
PO_Number PO_Revision Length Width Height Weight Quant UPrice
100 _________0___________10_____15___________________2 ____20
100__________1_________________________30
100__________2_________________________35____100
200 _________0_______________________________________1 ____10
NOW I would like to create a query that lists one record for each PO number, showing the most recently revised data. The desired result would look like:
PO_Number PO_Revision Length Width Height Weight Quant UPrice
100_____________2_______10_____15_____35_____100__ ___2____20
200_____________0_________________________________ ___1____10
Please realize that this is an example. There would be numerous one to one tables for each PO number to reduce the number of blank fields (ie. only tables with changes would be get revised records).
Can someone suggest a way to create a query to accomplish the above requirements, thanks in advance, Jeff...
Hi
About 10 years ago I wrote an Access application which is still in use. Over the years certain parts have become superfluous and new parts have been added by a variety of users. Thankfully they have stuck to the original ideal and only used macros and queries - and not modules of badly written code.
However, the system is beginning to creak and I have been asked to rewrite the system from scratch with a shiny new interface, cutting the dead wood and incorporating those new features that did not have a half life of one report.
I would like to be able to monitor the use of the system in order to be able to determine just which tables, forms, queries & reports are being used. I'm not interested in auditing who added what to which table, so a 'normal' audit system is not required. Can anyone tell me how I would record which of the above are being used and how regularly?
I have asked the users and (of course) they don't know.
TIA
I have a form based on a query. I've disabled "Navigation Buttons" on the form and am trying to recreate their functionality in a little more user friendly way. I've created next / previous record buttons and have those working great.
I'm now trying to re-create the record counter / tracker. I'd like to setup a box that shows which record I'm on (this can simply be based on the order the query returns them, the same way the navigation buttons does it when they are enabled. ), and how many records there are total in the query.
I tried messing around a little bit with =DCount but wasn't able to make it work I suspect because I'm counting the number of records returned in a query, not in a table.
Query does not return all stock. In basic form the database has 3 tables. One is “stock” another is “stock in” and the third is “stock out”.
I want to run a query using all three tables so that I can take stock out away from stock in. The problem is the column stock in (in the query result) only shows stock that has a value in stock out. If any stock items have not had stock go out the stock does not appear in the query result. I want stock in to show all items regardless if stock for that item has gone out. I think this can be done but I cannot figure it out.
Sorry if I have not made myself clear.
Please Help. Thank you Keith Hawes.

Hi
I am building a stock control database, which uses a barcode reader to input data into the fields.. (stored in a product table)
For a sale the item is scanned.. and the details are displayed. However is there any way which the same form can be used to have multiple text boxes with the same names..
So in essence I need to be able to view more than one sold item on one form.. is it possible to have rows of different transactions??
Hope that makes sense.. any assistance would be great!!
Sunshine!!
basically, im making a stock control database
i've made an update query but its not exactly what i wanted
is there a way to make the criteria equal a particular form field because i dont want the user to type in the stock ref in a parameter query.
also, how do i make it so no orders can be made on stock which has stock levels of 0 and have a message saying it is out of stock
at the moment, i put >0 in the criteria underneath no in stock field in the update query
i hope i made it clear because im not sure how to explain it
thanks for any help

I have been working on a stock database for my company. It needs to hold stock data, Any adjustments in the storesperson may do (QtyIn or Out). And allow Customer PO's to be raised (just to show prices and quantites sold to customers)
I have 4 Tables:
tblStockList
PartNumber (Primary Key)
Description
Location
StockCheck
StockListUnitPrice
[code]....
I then want to create a query to work out the total stock.
At the moment i have two queries, one to Sum the adjustments and one to sum the PO's. (The stock is not removed from the Customer PO until invidual line is shipped)
I then need to combine both these queries to work out the total stock value.
There will always be a value in the Sum of Adjustments but not in the Customer PO. So when i run the query to =SumofAdjustments - SumofCustomerPO's, if there is no record in the SumOfCustomerPo's, no value will appear.
I'm creating a sales system that allows customers to place orders using a customer account. when a customer completes an order the number items in the order needs to be subtracted from the stock numbers of each of those items stored in the system.
What I have so far is zipped and attached,
The way my system works should be easy enough to understand, there are four linked tables that store information on customers, products and orders. What I'm really struggling to understand is how to take the values in the records in the Invoice-Product table and take them away from the stock numbers for the products in the products table. But only new orders should take away from the stock number when a new order is placed.
If possible I also need to be able to add stock numbers for example if a delivery comes in, and if it's similar enough could that also be done here?
I have a problem with calculating the total qty of two fields.
Code:
QtyMapics: Nz([MapicsQty];0)
QtySubComp: Nz([SubComponentQty];0)
TotalQty: [QtyMapics]+[QtySubComp]
When I calculate the values of the fields it pastes the values after each other.For example: if you have the values 1 and 2 (which should become 3) then the result is a value of 12.I've tried changing the function to SUM() but that didn't work.The reason I am using NZ() is due to the fact that some values have a NULL value in one or both of the fields and if NZ is not included it will not calculate anything.
I have a form which has a list of stock we have available to sell. I can then create an invoice and put in the relevant details. I then can select a product and it will add it to the invoice (which is in the form of a subform). Then the user confirms the quantity of each product. This is where the problems start....
I want an update query which will subtract the quantity from the overall stock level and give me the new stock level. This is easy to do if the invoice is for only 1 product. But I it doesn't work if there is more than one product in the invoice. If the first product has a quantity of 2 being bought, it will subtract 2 for every product.
Hi
I am a relatively new user to access and wondered if you could help me with a stock control problem.
I have created an update query (qryUpdateQuantityinStock) with the below fields:
QuantityinStock
tblProduct
Update: [QuantityinStock]-Forms!frmCustomerOrder![frmProductOrderLine Subform].Form!Quantity
ProductNumber
tblPrdocut
Criteria: [Forms]![frmCustomerOrder]![frmProductOrderLine Subform].[Form]![ProductNumber]
When the user enters the quantity they require into the orders form I would like to deduct it from the quantityinstock field in the products table.
The above query does work if you add the following code to the beforeupdate event of the orders subform:
If Me.NewRecord Then
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.openquery "qryupdateQuantityinStock"
DoCmd. Setwarnings True
End If
Although I wanted the query to run from a button (confirm order) on the order form so that the user decides when to deduct the stock.
I cannot put a button onto the orders subfrom where the query should run from and if I place the code on a button on the main orders form it only deducts one order (one product) and not all products on the order.
Can you help me find a way to run the query from a button?
I have read through the threads and found lots of information on stock control, although have not yet found anything similar to this problem. I understand that this is not the correct way to do stock control, although my database is for academic purposes and only requires a simple stock control system.
Any help would be greatly appreciated (sorry for the long post!). :)
Many thanks
I have problem to create Stock query in Access 2013..I want to sum Purchasing numbers base ItemName in Purchasing table by query .. but i found error in summing?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a table with following structure :
Fabcode Price Stock Date Supplier
Fabcode : the unique code of the article
Price : the price by this supplier
Stock : quantities for the moment in stock by this supplier
Date : When there is no stock at this supplier, the estimated time of arrival
Supplier : name of the supplier
A selection for looking the lowest price for a supplier who has stock is no problem. But I want also the fastest delivery date when no one has stock.
Example
Fabcode Price Stock Date Supplier
Product1 5 3 A
Product1 6 4 B
Product1 7 5 C
Product1 8 6 D
Product2 14 73 A
Product2 12 56 B
Product2 15 14 C
Product3 30 0 30/12/13 A
Product3 24 0 B
Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C
Product3 32 0 26/12/13 D
Result :
Product1 5 3 A (because supplier A has stock and the lowest price)
Product2 12 56 B (because supplier B has stock and the lowest price)
Product3 25 0 26/12/13 C (because no one has stock, but supplier C has the shortest delivery time AND the lowest price)
Remark 1 : when there is no delivery date (and no stock), this supplier should be ignored for that product
Remark 2 : when no one has stock, the delivery date is priority, when 2 supplies has the same delivery date than the price is priority.
Can this in one query or SQL-statement ?
I just want to know how to manage items in set and individual item. Suppose my product list are
individual items = A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K
and 5 pc set = A,B,C,D,F
and 3 pc set = G,H,K
How should I design the table. Previously I designed the table for individual items and whenever orders for set is placed user had to enter individual items with quantity.
E.g. order is for 5 pc set = 3000
A=3000
B=3000
C=3000
D=3000
F=3000
Now I need to just say 5 pc set and it should be automatically populated. And also if order have combination of individual and set items.
I am trying to create a database that will keep track of the orders placed for a given part number by month. Currently, my table houses the part number, and the ordered amount for the past three years by month (there are thirty-five columns for every part). My column headings are ORDER_MAY_2013, etc. I would like to set a query up that will look at the column headings and pull the amounts ordered for each part for the past twelve months. In other words, I have three years of data in my table. In my query, I just want one year. However, I don't want to have to rewrite the query every month so that it will pick up the new data. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Is there a better way to build this database? I thought about just have four columns in my table - PART_NUMBER, ORDER_MONTH, ORDER_YEAR, ORDER_AMOUNT. The only problem there, is that every part (there are about 450 parts) would have to be listed 35+ times. That seemed too redundant to me, so I built the table this way. However, now I am having trouble querying against it.
I currently enter data onto a form which all works fine, when i view the data as a query in dataset view that is fine to, however i have seen a query in a sample database that allows you to click on an item within the query and it takes you to the input form where the details were first stored. Its just what i need but cannot work out how its done. The sample database does not allow you to view the properties so i cannot work it out for myself.
