Hello All...
I'm very new to Access.. so please forgive my ignorance..
Here is the scenario..
I have a table with two fields named "item" & "description" that contains 10 records total.
I have another table with 100 records with the fields "invoice #","item", "price paid","date paid","time paid".
The item fields are linked between the two, and the 100 records contain different invoices for these ten items.
I want to pull the price paid off of the latest invoice, based on the time and date... What is the easiest way to do this?
I have a file of transaction history from the accounting system. All of the payroll cash payments are coded as ZG. Payroll accruals are coded as ZC. I need a sum of payroll accruals by department that have the same date or later than the last payroll cash payment. How do I write that query?
I have two fields. A barcode field will have several instances of the same data, and the other field has different dates and times when it was scanned. I need to be able to query the barcode field and only return the record with the latest time. Can this be done in a query or do I need to do something else? Here is a sample of data I am working with. I attached a small sample of data as an example.
I am trying to create a simple database to keep track of computer components that I order for custom PCs. The data is fairly basic Quantity, Description, Stock Code, Delivery Status, Cost, Cost+VAT, Date Delivered. The list is currently 500+ rows of data. I simply cut and paste this info directly from my online invoices.
What I want is to be able find the the last price paid for an item (often the same items have different prices week by week) Eventually I would like to be able to create a rough quote using the latest prices (plus mark up) and also view a price history.
I would also like to include a few pictures as URL links to the suppliers website ????
At present the data is in Excel and linked to a single table in Access (but this can be changed). I realise that I have to group the records somehow but cannot get it to work. At present it lists every record either in date order or product order.
The stock code should not change, but product descriptions do. So any links to pics would be based on stock codes
Someone please tell me how to display the full list of products but only the latest price/date
If you think the current format is rubbish then feel free to suggest an alternative. I much prefer Excel but have never really got to grips with Access (used to be a vba programmer with Excel). To link to pictures and hide data that customers might see Access seems the obvious choice. So I try again!!!!!
I have set up a form and only want to display the date and time that will appear automatically based on when the record was created. I definitely don't know how to do this.
The format that I'm looking for is: 07/24/13 11:45:44pm
From what I can see I would need two separate fields to accomplish this. I would prefer to only use one if possible. I would like to execute the value within the new record as it is entered. That date and time from that point should never change.
I will want to use the date and time in the future for quality control.
I am trying to create a query or series of queries that will identify the latest record of a field called CheckInDate. The table will have multiple entries. For example.
Book#__________CheckOutDate_____________CheckInDat e __1_____________01/01/2007_______________03/01/2007 __1_____________04/01/2007_______________05/01/2007 __1_____________01/01/2007_______________ __2_____________01/01/2007_______________02/01/2007 __2_____________02/05/2007_______________04/27/2007 __3_____________01/01/2007_______________03/01/2007 __3_____________05/01/2007_______________07/01/2007
I need the results to be: #1(ALL) will not be listed, as there is a book still checked out #2 will show the record with the 04/27/2007(ONLY), as I want the last time the book was checked out. #3 will show the record with the 07/01/2007(ONLY), as I want the last time the book was checked out.
I currently have a somewhat flat table where this is concerned. Please advise on what I would need to do to create this. Thanks!
I am trying to run a Query that searches for a single Tool ID Number and returns the transaction record that has the latest date. My query currently is this:
SELECT LocationStatus.ToolID, LocationStatus.CurrentLocation, LocationStatus.DateofEvent FROM LocationStatus WHERE (((LocationStatus.DateofEvent)=(SELECT MAX(dateofevent) FROM [LocationStatus] AS t2 WHERE t2.[ToolID] = [Tool Number])));
But the problem I am having is that the query is returning MULTIPLE Tool ID numbers with matching dates. Before the query runs a parameter box pops up asking for a Tool ID number but there should only be one record returning. HELP!!!:confused::confused:
If I have four date Fields in a query, Astart, Bstart, Cstart, and Dstart and want to have a calculated field to find the latest date for each record how would I do that? I have tried things like:
In my Access app I need to get the latest record added of an item from a MS Sql table and check the period between now and the date saved in the record.
So my guess is: Select TOP 1 * from tbl_StockItems Where StockId = Loc_StockId
I then need to check the days between tbl_StockItems.LastStockDate and Today.
How would I write an Access VBA query to give me the amount of days and put that number into a variable.
i have a table that holds Electronic Gift Card details (those plastic store gift voucher cards). it holds all details of every transaction for every card, so the card number, activations, redemptions, dates, times, transaction values etc. are all recorded in my table.
i have attached a small extraction in a spreadsheet.
a single gift card can have multiple transactions against it throughout its lifespan. there are sometimes error transactions, and i need to write a query that finds these error transactions (they are all flagged with a "1" in the [reversal flag] field, so that bit is easy) but then also then the next transaction that occurs on that card. this subsequent transaction will not be flagged with a "1", but is a reversal of the error and will have an "802" flag in the [transaction type] field.
each transaction is date stamped hh:mm:ss, but i don't know how to write a query that will
1) find gift card number that has a reversal code of "1" 2) find next transaction made on that gift card based on transaction time 3) check that subsequent transaction type is "802" 4) select both transactions 5) repeat for entire table
i can't seem to get the desired result just using a straightforward query, and i don't know much (or any!) VBA in access.
I'm trying to find a solution to a problem. Is there any way using VBA to generate a random number, based off the current system date and time? The theory is that a random number seeded by the system date/time will be truly unique and the possiblity of it ever occuring again will be nearly nil.
Or is there a better way to create unique ID's (such as member ID's, or something similiar) based off the system date/time that can be used as a primary key in a relational db.
I have a form and I want the dates to be displayed based on predefined time. In this case, I want my form to show present date from present day's 7:00 AM to next day 7:00 AM.

I had a problem. Now I decided to just make two tables, one with sales for a "passer by" and/or directly to a client without a case/labour costs. And a table for sales in relation to a case with labour costs etc. I guess I still m*ssed up on that part and have to make do with that decision (kind of like I depicted in the photoshopped image).
For invoicenumbers I want to use DDMMYYYYHHMM. When adding that field to the design of a table, how do I go about that? Do I just use a Text field and create an input mask for that? Or do I need to use a number format with a certain input mask? Or would it be wiser just to use the date/time type of field and give it a new inputmask? I guess 000000000000 would be the one for that, right? Although I read the help file I do not know if I should use ;0; behind those first group of zero's or not. Yes it is a mandatory field, but it will fill in itself as soon as a product is typed in in the product/invoice list, with a default value of the current date and time.
I need to brush up my knowledge on the formatting for that so that 28-05-1975 19:55 will be displayed and stored as 280519751955. Or is that also done automatically by using that input mask? Or will that give an error when Date or Time() etc. is used for that field in VBA?
Just a few questions I need some help with, I've been trying some stuff but it really doesn't "stick".
And if anyone has some time, I could really use some general advice/ideas for setting up the invoicing part differently for a new version of the db yet to come in the future.
I have a query which is displaying a date/time field a record was input. in my query I'd like to only display the records where the date/time based on what today is i.e. Monday it will display <Friday or yesterday for Tue to Fri.
I am working on a jobs database where employees enter information where the job is being handed off to. I want to create a table showing the latest job entry by date. The jobs are listed by "Job Number" and when I try to create a table and remove the duplicate "Job Number" it does not always remove the oldest entries.
Hi All, I am looking for some help with a project I am working on where I need to automatically print a report from my database every time a new record is added to the table. The table contains 13 fields and the report needs to display 12 of them, the other being the index which is set to Autonumber.
The table is being updated solely by ODBC, this is working OK.
There is the potential for records to be added to the table very quickly via the ODBC link, so I need to safeguard that the report is being populated with correct information from the record that triggered the print event. Also, should multiple records be added in close succession, a report needs to be correctly generated/printed for each of one. The DB is to have no user intervention, and will just run on the PC at startup with all access menus/controls locked out.
Any information on how you think I should structure this, or any examples of helpful code that you might have would be very much appreciated.
I have a weekly list of transactions that come in the format DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS, I need to tag these individual transactions with a week number. The problem is, I can't use the Datepart function etc. as the day is classed as running from 8am to 8am rather than midnight. I have a list of all of the weekly date ranges for a few years (with the time) so I was able to solve this problem in excel by using the Index and Match functions. However, I'm trying to automate this process as much as possible so I'd rather perform this function in Access.
I have two tables, One table containes customer name, etc., tblcustomers the other table contains the tbltimelog, log of activity start time end time. No issues. I want to generate a form based on the dateofentry for the time record. I am not able to get a summary lets say I spent 20 hours on ABC and 20 hours on CBS. If I spent 3 different days on ABC and 6 different days on CBS it will not add them together it will list it ABC 3 times and CBS 6 times. I have tried the distinct function but it doesn't work because the date is distinct. Is there a way to do this as an SQL or whatever. Thinking I could just create a new table and calculating the totals but that seems to be a waste.
Not all employees will have entries in every class.
Need a query to result in most recent Date for each employee, such as: -------------- J.Johnson......CLASS 3........12/25/05 S.Smith.........CLASS 2.......10/15/05
I have a table that shows me 3 fields: PROCESS EFFECTIVE_ OPERATION_
My issue is each process and operation may be there multiple times due to multiple Effective dates. I only need to see each Process and Operation one time based on the latest Effective date. Below is what I have NOW:
This is what I need: PROCESS EFFECTIVE_ OPERATION_ 1/010/1-8TCOWLFEEDER 2005-11-09 10 1/010/1-8TCOWLFEEDER 2005-11-09 20 1/010/1-8TCOWLFEEDER 2005-11-09 30 1/010/1-8TCOWLFEEDER 2005-11-09 40
Out of the records above I would only want to see the records with the 2005-11-09 date. The dates can vary based on processes so I really need something that selects the the latest date for each Process and Operation. I would like to do this in a query or multiple queries.
I am hoping someone may be able to help me with this one. I have a set of dates that I would like to query for the next latest date based on certain criteria. Not sure if I explain clearly, if more info is required, please advise. Thanks so much in advance for your help.
I have a form that request information from the user (StartDate, StartTime, EndDate and EndTime) the problem is that it's not working. The only way I can get any data to show is when I remove the StartTime and EndTime. Only then will it pull the items from the StartDate and EndDate.
Here is what I have as my criteria: Between [Forms]![OpPROD_ALL]![StartTime] And [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![EndTime] And Between [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![StartDate] And [Forms]![ OpPROD_ALL]![EndDate]
The users will be able to request a report based on a start and end date along with a start time and end time.
Side note: this is to pull date for 3rd shift (Example) 4/14/2013 10:00PM - 4/15/2013 10PM
