I have little experience using Microsoft Access, but am attempting to create an order management system.
I have designed a system to store customer details and allow the entry of orders. I now want to develop this so that the system can handle delivery notes.
There are currently two tables for order information, since each order can consist of multiple items. So, general information, like the order date, order number and salesperson are stored in an orders table. A second table, Order Detail lists the items and item specific information along with the order number of which they are a part.
A whole order (i.e. all items assigned to one order number) may be delivered at once, or in smaller consignments. However, every consignment must have a delivery note with a unique number. So, there may be several delivery note numbers associated with each order, relating to different shipments.
I therefore need to create a system which allows the user to select which items from an order are being dispatched and then get Access to do the following:
Create a new record in the delivery notes table. The delivery note number will therefore be created (it's an autonumber). The user should be prompted to enter the delivery date and this should be stored in the date column of the delivery notes table, alongside the delivery note number.
Enter the delivery note number in the "Delivery Note Number" field of the Order Details table, for every item that the user selected as dispatching.
Once this is in place, I will then be able to pull all the required details together with a query and then print the delivery note.
Bearing in mind that I'm very new to Access and so don't have any knowledge of scripts/macros etc, can anyone tell me how I can achieve this?
I am trying to create a database where I can search for a specific vacation spot based on the things to do there and qualities about those things.
Lets say I have the following
Arizona --> Grand Canyon --> Hiking, Rafting, Dining, fun, costly Arizona --> Family --> Dining, Scary, free, scary Utah --> Zion Ntl Park --> Hiking, Photography, inexpensive, fun Florida --> Disney --> Family Fun, Parks, Dining, fun, costly
So now I want to run a search to show me places that have "hiking" which would return Grand Canyon and Zion Park and it would return Zion under the Utah Category and Grand Canyon under Arizona.
Also, would it be possible to run a search of places that meet, say, 80%, of the results. So if i result for places that are costly fun, and hiking it would return results that matched it about 80% or so?
I am trying to design a database for an HR management system. I am not very clear on how to handle historic employee data in this database and will need some help and advice please. Any comment you can provide, i'd really appreciate it.
We will like to have record of historic data and the date of change: Employee address change Employee name change Salary change Position/Title change Office location change Number of dependents change Bonus received year-to-year
E.g. if an employee name changes, we should still have to have a record of what the old name was. Scenario: Jacqueline Peters got married 2years after her employment date and now goes by Jackie Harrison (the changed was made on the system), she leaves the firm 10years later. Many years later, someone calls about a Jacqueline Peters that worked here, we have no way of knowing who that is. Now, we would like to the salary she was earning 5years after she started here though her endsalary has changed 10years later she got a big promotion (salary change) and changed department, we have no way of knowing what her salary at a particular time was and what her old title was.
What's the best way to design this database to handle historic data? Have you worked on something similar? How did you go about it? Any ideas and comments will be greatly appreciated.
Hello !:) I need to make a SQL query in Microsoft Access. The database is in French but you will easily understand, if not please ask me to translate. You will find the MDB Access file inside the attached ZIP file.
The query I need to make is ::rolleyes:
We want for the next sent of books to the members of l’EST-SUD (WEST-SOUTH in English), to test the equivalences of the books.
We want to send for each book from the “genre” (theme in English) “Animaux” the most expensive equivalent book, we want to give a list with the original book, the recommended price (PrixCons in the database) and the most expensive equivalent book with his price.
-“NoLiv” is the book number in the database. -“TitreLiv” is the book name (title) in the database. -“NoGen” is the theme (genre) number in the database. -“NomGen” is the theme (genre) name in the database. -“PrixCons” is the recommended price for the book.
This is the query I tried, but it isn’t working ::confused:
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM LIVRE AS L, EQUIVALENCE AS E WHERE L.NoGen IN (SELECT G.NoGen FROM GENRE AS G WHERE G.NomGen IN ("ANIMAUX")) AND E.NoLivEq IN (SELECT LI.NoLiv FROM LIVRE AS LI WHERE LI.NoLiv IN (SELECT MAX(LIV.PrixCons) AS [Prix Max Livre Equivalent] FROM LIVRE AS LIV WHERE LIV.NoLiv=LI.NoLiv)) ORDER BY 2, 3;
SECTEUR (N°Sec, NomSec) ADHERENT (NoAdh, NomAdh, PrenomAdh, Sexe, DateNaissance, #N°AdhResp, #N°Sec) MEMBRE (NoMemb, PrenomMemb, Sexe, Age, #N°Adh) GENRE (NoGen, NomGen, Exemples) LIVRE (NoLiv, TitreLiv, ThemeLiv, PrixCons, #NoGenre) ENVOI (#NoMem, #NoLiv, DateEnvoi) ETUDE (#NoMem, #NoLiv, DateEtude, EvalEt, Commentaire) EQUIVALENCE (#NoLiv, # NoLivEq) Primary keys are underlined and foreign keys have a # before them
I am trying to design and build an orders management database for a clothing wholesaler.
Has anyone got any ideas on what entities i should have.
I thought:
Clients (Customer Details) Orders (Inc. order date, ship via etc) Order Details (sizes, quantity of orders per size) Product Details (Product Code, colour, size, stock numbers per size) Catergories (Shorts, Jackets, Jeans etc) Suppliers (Supplier Information) Delivery (Delivery Method etc)
However, loads of problems when i come to planning the sizes part. I have different product catergories with different sizes
And when i do the order details table, i need to enter order quantities for each different size for one clothing unit.
Any ideas?
I would also ideally want to link the order details and products tables by the product code number. I.e. When filling out an order In the order details table i want to type in the product code then have information from the product table automatcially fill in the gaps in the order details table, such as unit price, colour etc.
Hi all. I am considering developing a purchase order and warehouse management database, to be manage a cold store in my workplace.
What i have in mind is a system where the details of each pallet coming in is recorded (weight, quantity, location of pallet in warehouse etc.) is recorded, marked off against the corresponding purchase order number and then a label is printed with a barcode to quickly identify that pallet.
Handheld barcode scanners would be used to record when a pallet leaves the warhouse, and where its going to(despatch, production etc.). Ideally the scanners could be used to give forklift drivers order picking info aswell.
I'm fairly confident i can design the database, however, i have never done anything with barcodes, scanners or handheld devices. Is this even feasible with access? How do i go about doing it, any advice, example databases etc. greatly appreciated.
I have a work order system that people use but it somewhat randomly puts blank records into my table. I've added a lot of validation checks when submitting, closing and resetting the form and limited the way people can exit out of the form to fight this issue but it still happens.
I 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.
I have over the last few months been building my own Project management system.This is based around A Phase task principle but the phases and tasks are used to create an estimate for a project depending on how much time is assigned to each Task.The system can use multiply Estimates with different billing codes plus their is a billing code system where billing can be done by a default list of codes (Rates 1-5) Or assigned rates for a client.I'm not after any money for it and will make it available to members hear.If anybody want to look at it and maybe make suggestions on improvements or let me know of any errors that would be greatIt would be an mde with an mdb back end.You should be able to update the back end that I don't think will be a problem LOL When it comes to new versions.As I said I don't want ANYTHING For you using it but would be nice to get it working better.mickp.s Ill Post some pictures if ya want. And It is a work in progress?Please use this topic from now on http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=121117 this is where the beta 1 downloads available from.

I'm just wondering if anyone has made a very advanced budget management program using just access?? I tried to make one for myself but I just want it to advanced for my little knowledge of access. I would love to be able to keep track of all my expenses including everything bought from groceries to hair cuts. I would love to be able to take my receipt from walmart and enter everything bought and the price for each item. Then I would love to be able to at anytime search for soap and thing with soap in the Item name will be displayed with the location and the date and price. This way I can keep track not just what I spend on groceries but what I spend on mountain dew or what i spend on hamburger in a given time. This is just way to complicated for me! I hope someone can help me out here maybe give me a shell and let me try to fill in certain parts or if someone already has one that works kind of like this maybe i could just change a few things to the way i want it! I really appreciate this!!
I am trying to create a access database system which will show classes, students, attendance, progress report, teachers, departments etc...

the place that i get messed up is for example the attendance, i want it so that i can select a date and then all the students associated with that class showup. so 1 date and a list of student only on that class.
another problem was adding a progress report for every class and individual students.
this is for a community based school which teachings on saturdays, there are over 15 volunters who do not get paid to teach but are still willing to give something back to the society.
i beg you guys out there, you all are geniuses!!! please help us design this simple system. please if somebody already knows where i can get a system like this free of charge then let me know ASAP!

I want to do something like the contact management database which is offered by microsoft for download.
I played a little with it and my problem is I copy-pasted the "calls" tab and on the pasted tab when I browse throug the different calls the call notes field below wont change / update. I thought there is maybe a macro behind it but I looked at every macro and did not find anything appropriate in my opinion.
It is maybe only a minor but I can not figure it out,
Thanks for any help in advance,
Leslie
PS.: I uploaded the database to rapidshare : http://rapidshare.com/files/1305209/Contact_management_database.mdb
Hi all, I need your help. I am in process of designing a Contract Management database. I have three tables The first one is Contracts Details table, with these columns: Contract ID, Contract Name, Vendor ID, Vendor Name, Start Date, End Date, Type, and Description. The second table is Vendors table, with these columns: Vendor ID, and Vendor Name. The third table is VendorContact table, with these columns: Vendor ID, Contact Person, Phone, Mobile, Fax, Email, and id. I want you to help me to construct the relations? Kindly, see the attached database.
I am a newbie, I am create Incident Management Database for our office. I have sorted relationships & a form in the database but i need more help with a form.
The main table in the database is INCIDENT and there are lots of lookups and 3 tables with one to many relationships. Now in my database, i must save the Incident entry first and only then i can add info in witness table. Is there any way that the data about the incident gets saved as soon as users try to enter witness info regarding that incident?
Please see attached two images to get better idea.
Any help is appreciated. See the link below (copy n paste in web browser) docs.google.com/Doc?id=df4ks7hh_21gxccsng4
I need to customize the sample Contact Management DB (CONTACT) that comes with MS Access 2000.
I removed the field ‘Region’ in the ‘Company’ table, in the ‘Company’ form, and in the ‘ContactAddress’ query, respectively. Now, when I try to access the ‘Enter/View Contacts’ form through the Main Swithboard's button, it shows a small warning windows asking to ‘Enter Parameter Value’, referring to "Company.Region." What did I wrong and/or should I do to correct this problem?
I am looking for a database that can keep up with the full management issues relating to single family houses. Some are on a lease. Some are on owner-financed by use. Any help would be great!
I am willing to pay a designer to program this database for me. Email any samples or questions to babyfacedavid@yahoo.com
and it works mainly except for two problems: (1) I renamed all the forms on the Database main window. But when I open the forms, on the top blue bar, it still reads the old names. How do I change that to new names?
(2) I've changed the "Calls" table and forms to "Actions." I've renamed the "Calls" button on the main "Contacts" form which is now "Projects." The old key field "ContactID" is now "ProjectID." When I click on the "Calls" button to go to the "Calls" form/subforms, box says "cannot find field "ContactID" referred to in your expression. How do I fix it so that it recognises the new key "ProjectID"? They are linked correctly on relationship--or at least they're linked exactly the way it was linked in the template.
In order to create a stock database and make it easy to register mutations in the database.
A mutation is a change in stocks and I want to make it possible to enter a lot of changes at once. There is a mutation table and a mutationlines table that has a relation with articles. In the form I want to show all available articles (about 65) followed by a textfield where I can enter the amount of articles affected.
The problem is that I don't know how to pull all articles from the articles table to use in the form.
I am new with Access database and I found almost everything i needed on the internet. There is only one thing I just cant figure out when this looked like one of the easier things. Im making a database where all soorts of keys of all kinds of companies and homes are stored. In this database I want to keep track of the keys that are being used, who has the keys and when the keys are taken and brought back.
Most of these things work except one thing. In the table where I have the keys I have a field wich is 'In use'. This is a yes/no field and I want it to be yes when someone takes a key and to switch back to no when someone returns it. This is possible if it is done by the employees who use the keys but i want it to go automatically so no mistakes are made.
I have one table for the keys, one for the employees that take and return the keys, I use a master with detail form for when someone takes or returns a key and this is all shown in a query.
