I have a database which I use for scheduling production. I would like to know if there is a way to "push" the schedule dates. I have multiple products scheduled for production but at times I need to adjust the production dates by pushing all the schedule dates ahead by one day. I don't want to re-enter all the dates to do this adjustments.
View RepliesI need to make a report that shows a work schedule for 10 employees. I need it to print in a monthyly calendar format with horizontal lines to show start and end date and time. I need it to show that there is or is not any overlap for that machine."
It has been a while since I have created a DB and I get some of this okay. So far I think I need three tables. One is the machines. Two is the product schedule (how long it takes to produce X number of products). The last would be work orders and that pretty much covers the data.
I think most of the data can be maniputated by queries and that is even done on the report. The report as we all know is the reason for a database. If it was just about the data it would be simpler to do a spreadsheet. It could get fancy and make a pivot table. That output can be a calendar of sorts.
Hi,
I need to push data from an Access database which is getting really big really quickly to a Sql Server. The queries from the Access will still be used to query the data that will be moved to Sql Server. Can someone please suggest the best way to go about doing this.
Thanks.
I am really green when it comes to Access---i am entering
text variables and pushing tab to get to the next field..however,
when I push tab to get to next field it the program is automatically
counting by two's, three's etc. based on 'pattern.' For example-I entered
2, then tab 4 and when I tabbed again a 6 magically appeared. I need
to know how this can be turned off...it is driving me nutty.
i'm trying to send an Outlook e-mail from Access. Everything works fine except for one thing:
When generating the HTMLBody I use vbNewLine for starting a new line in the string that works fine as long as being in Access. However after displaying it in Outlook there are no any new lines in the mail text; the complete text is one mass.
I tried to use Chr(13) but had the same result.
New to MS-Access and I'm trying to help our HR with creating a production tracking table.
This is just a small simple table with all 12 months of the year and a total production column for summing up everything that has been produced for the year. But being "very" new to access I have zero clue on how to do this. I would appreciate any Access for this dummy help I can get . Thanks in advance.
Hi
I keep the production version of my database on a server, and a copy of it for development work on my desktop. Today I've made several changes to the development version, which didn't work. I then opened the production version held on the server in a separate MS Access window to compare the queries/results to see where the problem was and have found that the changes have automatically updated in the production version. Can anyone explain this? They shouldnt be linked at all. The 2 versions both link to a datawarehouse through an ODBC link, but shouldn't be linking to each other (I'm using Access 2003).
Cheers :)
:eek:
My boss threw a curve at me this morning and I need some guidence. I created a commission tracking db for our industry (automotive). Each technician will have a base commission that they'll get regardless of their production. Should they exceed their production by X, we would like to give them a bonus of 2% of all of their work. Should they exceed their production by X+Y, we'd like to increased the bonus to a total of 4% for their work during this pay period.
I need help with the table stucture, to start. My db currently contains a variety of tables including tblTech. tblTech contains information specific to each tech including their annual PERSONAL income goal (not to be confused with Bonus scale). Depending on a number of factors (ie. how long they've worked here, how much other responsibility, etc.), I'd like to assign a bonus tier to each technicial. ie. Technicial A = Joe. Joe is promoted to manager and therefore needs a greater bonus for the same amount of production. I'd like to assign him to Tier 2 where he makes more then a Tier 1 one employee.
I'm having a hard time getting focused. All suggestions are appreciated.
old Access database that's been upgraded through to Access 2000 or 2003 (probably 2000), but not beyond. Was rebuilt in Access 2003 format around 2006/2007 (by someone else who no longer works here). Being used now in Access 2007 and 2010. Uses DSN to connect to SQL Server backend. Last week it was SQL Server 2005, moved the back end on Saturday to SQL Server 2012. Changed the DSN when moving to the new server. But I don't think this has to do with the DSN (it's getting data just fine).
There's a data entry form. User enters a Generator ID, event triggers it to look for the details for the generator and load them into a generator subform. After it loads the information into the subform, and before the user does anything else, it throws "This connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context."It triggers post update of the Generator ID:
Code:
Private Sub txtGeneratorID_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Handle_err
Me.txtGeneratorID = UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID)
Call FillHandlerSubform(Me.subGeneratorInfo, Me.txtGeneratorID.Value)
If GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "N" Or GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "OB" Then
MsgBox "Warning Generator Status! " & UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) & vbCrLf & _
"This Generator has a status of N or OB!", vbCritical, "Bad Generator Status!"
Cancel = True
End If
[code]....
It doesn't throw this error in the development copy of the database, dev copy works just fine. It only throws it from the production version. They are located on the same network, just in different folders. They are pointing to the same database on the same SQL Server using a DSN file located inside the folder where the .mdb file is located (this is a change in the front end, prior to this it was using a DSN on each individual machine, but I changed it to stop that).
I currently have a continuous form in my database that has 24 records in it. every record is blank except for a time (I will post a screenshot)
Our employees are instructed to enter various information every hour in this form. coding a button that, when clicked, will create 24 new records in the table that this form is based on, insert times in those 24 records, and then display those 24 records in the form. It would have the illusion that the end user it "resetting" the form at the end of his shift and preparing a clean form for the next person.
In the spreadsheet that we currently use, there is a button that, when pressed, saves the workbook with the date in its file name and then clears all of the end-user's data so that the next shift has a clean spreadsheet to use. I would like to mimic this button as closely as possible in MS Access
I understand that this database design is not exactly ideal in the world of database engineering; however, I was told to make this a perfectly seamless transition from the excel spreadsheet we currently use (there is a folder with 900+ workbooks from over the years. This obviously makes the information useless - we need all of the information in one file - this database)
I want to release an Access program to the production environment for users. I remember there being a file extention that can be used so the users cannot access the DB or Code.

I've been asked to edit a current report that lists our production in week number order. I need to look at way we can 'flag up' orders that are within a 4 week period from the current date.
For example,
10 Orders in total in our database. 5 of which are due the drawings back within 4 weeks from today (26/02/15). I'm looking for a way for the report to show the 5 orders as priority, either by formatting the orders in bold, a different colour or under their own heading/group.
I need to create a production forecast form based on previous sales history.The history is based a sales and grouped by month & year
So on the form, which needs to be a continuous form, I want products to show as rows and months as columns The sales history per month needs to be displayed as well as a field allowing to user to enter the production forecast.
I can write the sales history to a temp table.However I never know how many months history the user is going to want displayed at run time. Could be 3, 7, 12 or 15!

Hey thereI'm currently doing an ICT project for some school work, in which we all have to make access databases. My database is based around a fictional company that provide driving lessons. I've set most of the tables up including clients employees, bookings etc, but i'm wondering if its possible to implement a schedule within access?I would like to know if its possible for say if someone booked 2 hours of lesson, 2 blocks within the schedule table would be filled, or similar to a calender function, e.g. each day has 6 openings within it, and as these become booked the next day is filled.i've searched around a bit and can't really find anything but i'm very new to access so any advice would be much appreciated, or just being told that it isnt possible to implement such a schedule or calender would also be useful as then i wont be wasting time looking :PHope i've posted this in the right place, sorry if i haven't.Thanks in advance.BenJust found this website: http://www.aislebyaisle.com/access/calendartool.htmkinda similar to what i'm looking to do, just wanna know if theres anyway of doing this thats less complex? or free?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'm relatively new to Access and would like a few pointers...
I have been asked by work to create a schedule database. We would like to be able to put in dates and see who's working on that day, pull up an individual and see his/hers rota for a week. Also see if they have meetings, annual leave, sickness etc.... We want it to be a very primitive WFM tool. Is this possible and is it relatively easy? The database doesn't have to create the shifts, they will be imported from Excel....
Which leads me to believe I need to think of it differently to excel... Attached is an excel rota, which would need to be importred - but maybe I need to be think a lot differently.
I know thats a big question but any help would be appreciated, or pointers to more resources... Thanks

Good Day everyone,
I am looking at setting up appointments and having Access automaticly schedule the next appointment in either 6 months or a year depending on the Vender. I've search the forum and can't find anything.
For Example if their last appointment was 12-1-05 I would like access to automaticly schedule the next appoint 12-1-06.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Hello Everyone
I need to make an employee schedule in access. I am not sure if it is possible, but here are my constraints:
20 employees
5-6 different truck locations (sm1, sm2, sm3, sm4, sm5, sm6) These locations are scattered within our service area.
2 employees must meet at the same truck, (each truck has 2 employees working on it)
some employees can only meet at certain locations (ex. paul can meet at either sm2 or sm3)
all employees are PT so they can only work on certain days or a certain amount of days per week. (ex. paul can work up to 4 days a week and jim can work only sat and fri)
I would like to make a program in access that will take all these factors into consideration. EX. if i try to schedule paul on sm4 the program will not let me do it or it will give a warning or if i try to schedule paul for 5 days it will give me a warning.
It would also be great to have a counter that will show how many days each employee has left to be scheduled for, EX: if i scheduled paul for 2 days it will show that he can actually work 2 days more if i need him to.
I know this might be a lot, but i also know there are so many talented people here so i am sure it is feasible. Please let me know if you know how to do this or if you could guide me through it.
or if you know about a different program that can solve this please let me know
Thanks in advance

I am trying to create a database to schedule customer visits. I would like to enter a beginning date and a frequency (IE every week or every two weeks) and then be able to print a schedule by entering a date range. Very similar to how MS Outlook calendar performs. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks Chad

I want to automatically create interview slots. On a form I've got an interview set up and there is a one to many relationship with a table containing interview slots. I want the user to key in the start time of interviews and the end time and the duration of the interview. It should then create the records (time slots) and display them.
I assume it will be some kind of append query, but to be honest I just don't know where to start.
Please help. A cyber pint goes to the boffin that susses it.
Cheers,
Recall.
I have 6 machines that run jobs Monday thru Friday but I will focus on doing one machine to avoid confusion.
The machine will be running 23 hours a day Monday thru Thursday and 18 hours on Friday and is shut down on Saturday and Sunday. Monday morning at 5am (start of the work week) Job A starts. The job will run for 30 hours. Then Job B will run for 160 hours. I need to know when Job B will start and end. Although it would be nice to know the time of day, just knowing the date would be good enough.
As I said I have 6 machines and each one is running anywhere from 7 to 10 jobs. My end result could be nothing more than a report, but a datasheet form would be ideal. On Mondays, new jobs are added and schedule is updated based on actual productivity from the prior week.
how to go about creating a report that lists a traditional style class schedule?
I would like the times on the X axis and the days of the week along the Y axis. Ideally, the name of the class and student list would be included.
I have all this information in a database, but right now my classes are being generated in an excel program (by hand) and I'd like to automate it somewhat since some class information is being changed on weekly basis.
What I would like to accomplish is to make a report similar to this, except make it automated so I won't have to change the dates. Users would be able to bring up a current schedule without worry that it's updated or not. The schedule repeats itself every 6 weeks. I made a cross-tab query, but I must admit that I'm not too familiar with working on them.
