I need to make a coupel of statements that display the total (sum) of negative amounts and positive amounts from a single list of results which comtains both negative and positive values. The two answers need to be displayed in the footer of a report.
I have a field on my report that contains positive and negative numbers. I'm trying to find a way to Sum the column twice for two different fields (one for positive sum and the other negative) To make this easy let me give a small example with explanation of the issue I am having. 14 rows of data containing positive and negative numbers in a field called [Rooms]:
The positive numbers represent confirmations, the negative numbers represent cancellations. I need 2 fields to separate these. The first field's control source is Sum([Rooms]). No problem there. Access does the math and comes up with "8" confirmations which is correct. Then in the second (Cancellation field) I try something like Sum([Rooms]<0) to get the negative numbers which should add up to -7 (-1+-1+-5), but instead I get -3 because it's not summing the values, it's really returning the number of rows that has a negative number. Is there any way this can be done at the ControlSource Property of a report field? Or if I could do a "Where" clause in a ControlSource I could acheive it another way, but I don't that is possible. Is this just something I'm missing with the way I'm stucturing the ControlSource or is it not possible. Or alternatively, is there a way to separate it in the query and have a separate query field for positive and negative going into the report. I can do one or the other in the query but I can't seem to do both without showing values of each type in both query fields.
I am trying to to find a way to show all the positive values with nagative, in order words, if the value is 10,000 is should be followed by corresponding -10,000 so that the user could investigate if the entry is a reversible GL.
I'm doing a bank-rec database, so on the one hand I'm comparing positive debits, to negative credits. How do I query to get, say, "Bank1 -$1000, Bank2 $1000"
I have a report which is counting and totalling numbers, but in the numbers show as negatives - I need them to show as positives.I managed to change the total in one counting field to positive but I've forgotten how - or where I put the code....
I have an expression that converts a string to positive/negative number. It seems to be working fine, however, it doesn't convert "00000000001}" to -10. It shows as 10.
This is the formula that I am using in my query:
PJUNAccrual: IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",-1,1)*(Val([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X])/IIf(IsNumeric([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X]),100,10)+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "A" And "I",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-64)/100,0))+(IIf(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1) Between "J" And "S",(Asc(Right([PJ_ACCRUAL_ADJ_X],1))-73)/100,0)))*100
what I then would do is copy that to a purchase order but remove the negative sign can this can the formula be changed in anyway to give the positive number .
I have created an Access 2010 Database for tracking inventory. As parts move to each location, quantities automatically subtract from the previous location. I now realized that some parts are destroyed.
The problem is the if I simply enter a negative value to indicated that a part was destroyed at one location, it appears as a positive value in the previous location. Is there a way to make negative values not affect a specific query?
Is it possible to format a textbox such that a negative value doesn't show numerically but in some other form (like a cross or exclamation mark from the Wingdings font, for example?)
I have a couple of textboxes which take their values from a function. The function is designed to return a long integer value which should always be greater than or equal to zero (the function counts the number of outstanding e-mails in a given Outlook folder, hence it should always be zero or higher)
However, as part of my error handling, if the function can't connect to the Outlook folder for whatever reason (for example, if the user does not have the appropriate permissions, or they do not have it mapped etc.), then it returns -1 (so I have some sort of value to identify a fail)
So currently, if such an error occurs, my textbox(es) will show -1 (and I can use conditional formatting to highlight this)
But it would be nice if it showed an "X" or "!" instead, and only showed the numerical value for 0 or positive. Is this possible?
I am trying to create a table for income and expense [catergory] and would like the amount being entered into the [amount] field to have a negative or positive value on entering based on the category chosen.
so in my table I have
[catergory] which is chosen from a look up table ( which is either an INCOME or EXPENSE ) [amount] which is entered in the next field ( which has to return a positive or negative value based on the catergory choosen upon entering the data)
I would like to go one step further and indicate this negative value in red is possible in my FORM.
I need to create a query in Microsoft Access to enter 1 or 0 in a field based on whether numbers in another field is positive or negative. Here are the details.
1 entered in a "late" field if "TotalHoursAheadOrBehindScedule" field has a positive number 0 entered in a "late" field if "TotalHoursAheadOrBehindScedule" field has a negative number
This has to be a simple way to convert a positive number to a negative number. For example, convert 5 to -5. The field is quanitity and I wanted to convert to negative number. I tried to use negative = "-" & [quantity] but it doesn't work.
Hi to all! I face the following problem: I cannot add amounts per line! I have one table consisting of many different columns (fields), some of them having amounts. I want to update this table by doing the following: let's say I have the following records: 1/6/2006 A 12 1/5/2006 B 20 15/6/2006 C 21 22/6/2006 D 17 25/6/2006 E 30. I want to use a filter (e.g. the date being between 1/6/2006-30/6/2006), sort the records descending according to the amounts and then add in another field of the table A, B or C, according to whether the total amount including the specific record is above 70% of the total or above 90% of the total. In the specific example I want the following result: 25/6/2006 E 30 A 15/6/2006 C 21 A 22/6/2006 D 17 B 1/6/2006 A 12 C Their total amount is 30+21+17+12=80 and the percentage of each record is: E:0.375 , C:0.2625 , D:0.2125 and A:0.15. Their adding percentage is E:0.375 , E+C:0.6375 , E+C+D:0.85 and E+C+D+A:1. How can I do that? I calculate the percentage of each record in a query, but how can I calculate their adding percentage, so that I can use an if-clause in an appending query? Please help!! Thanks in advance for your time
In this case, I want to calculate a total for an order. If the LineTaxExempt field is checked (meaning tax exempt), the total is figured by the ([Qty] field X [Price] field)+the [ShippingHandling] field.
If the LineTaxExempt is not checked, then the above total, including shipping, is multiplied by 6% sales tax or 1.06. I then want this value rounded up to 2 decimal places. This control is a running total of the order.
This works most of the time, but I have run into a few rounding errors.
For example:
With exempt checked
1(Qty)X27.90(Price) + 6.44(ShippingHandling) gives me $34.35 instead of $34.34
With tax exempt checked (and multiple lines)
2(Qty)X141.02(Price) + 0.00(ShippingHandling) 10(Qty)X4.12(Price) + 0.00(ShippingHandling) gives me a grand total of $323.25 instead of $323.24
It's frustrating because it seems like it works part of the time and rounds wrong the other part of the time. By "rounds wrong", I mean I set it wrong to round.
Is there a better formula to use in a form or query to round up to 2 decimal places other than the =-Int(-Sum([Fieldname]) * 100) / 100 method that will give me the right results?
Any help/examples would be greatly appreciated on how to modify this to give me the correct result each time.
Here are my field types:
QTY ------- Field: Double Format: Standard Decimal Places: 2
Price ---------- Format: Currency Decimal Places: 4 (some unit prices are 4 digits--Example $1.2525)
I have a form based on a query. This form has a combobox with 4 names in it. When a person is selected form the combo box, other fields automatically populate IE: room number, address, etc. Another field is a currency box which also populates automatically.
This is what I wish to happen: When I select a person from the combo box, can it show the TOTAL amount received for THAT PERSON in a separate text box?
Hi, it's me again, the guy who works with the Amusement ride industry. I'm trying to set up a way to ogranize all our saftey bulletins that we get.
I've already looked into indexing but the major problem is that the user will need to be able to search on multiple criteria (for example the Tilt A Whirl was made by three different manufacturers). Also I can't download that nifty google tool bar because we're running win 2000 without service pac 3.
Access seemed like a great alernative, but I have about 300 or so files I need to link. Is there a faster way of linking these files than going through and doing them one by one?
I have a pre-made index the guy before me made in exel. Most all the files are in PDF format if it helps at all. Thanks.
i have 5 fields facid custid empid amount invdate.
i need to be able to get totals on the amount based on fac, cust & emp based on a date range given by user, but here's the kicker.. i need to get the current month totals, month totals - 1year (so same month but for last year) the date range totals, last yeardate range current ytd, last ytd
i did it using code, but the performance isn't that great. there are 2800 customers it has to cycle through and figured one of the resident experts can help with a query. i've used dsum() but not quite getting the results i should. i think one of the problems is the user has the option of filtering the data based on the 3 fields.
anyways if you can help i'd greatly appreciate it..
possible to have an update query to only update 20 rows with a new data in the fields? And, how do I pass the information that I want to update only data from a certain date.If I have the word Cat and want to update it to Dog, but only with the dates 12-01-2014, where do I need to put the date part (also possible to do this for dates that are greater than 12-01-2014).
I'm having difficulty in adding decimal amounts to a percentage expression.On a form in a text box I have a percentage expression of 73.38%. In a combo box I have a drop down menu of: 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, 0, -.25, -.5, -.75With another text box I would like to have the decimal amounts added to the percentage. For example, 73.38% + .5..Which will equal in the text box: 73.88%
