Queries :: How To Make Total Columns For ONE Field
Jul 2, 2015
I am trying to create a query that ONLY shows me the total count of each combo box choice for one field. It sounds very easy and I'm sure it is but everything I try tells me I am using the wrong syntax, or requires me to have rows when I only want column totals.
I have a combo box with a dropdown of 10 common places that people travel to. I want the report to ONLY show the total number of people who chose place 1, place 2, place 3... etc. But I always have to do according to date or time or something. I want it to look like this
Place 1 Place 2 Place 3 Place 4
13............36.........3........77
So essentially there would only be one row. But access will not let me. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or is this not possible?
I currently have a query that pulls selected data from a table. There can be multiple rows of data, and two columns include dollar amounts and quantities. I have a total line going at the bottom so I can see the Grant Total of all the rows (for dollar amounts and quantity).
Is it possible to add a column to this query that will calculate the expression:..?
=Grand Total of Dollar Amts for selected data/Grand Total of Quantity for selected data
I tried to use a query in a query, but must have done something wrong because it just said circular reference.
I have a running total query that seems to run but when I try to total the query results then Access will be "Not Responding". I tried to change it to a Make Table query because I need to use the running total result in another query. So I created a table but when I try to run the make table query it just says "Run Query" at the bottom. Here is the query:
SELECT [OTMissing].[Employee], [OTMissing].[AsOf], [OTMissing].[HRsEarn], (SELECT Sum(OT1.[HRsEarn]) FROM [OTMissing] As OT1 WHERE OT1.[Employee]=[OTMissing].[Employee] AND OT1.[AsOf] <=[OTMissing].[AsOf]) AS RunningTotal, [OTMissing].[RemainPP] INTO OTGenerated FROM [OTMissing] ORDER BY [OTMissing].[Employee], [OTMissing].AsOf;
My OTMissing query is 47061 rows. Does that have something to do with it? The only other thing it might be is that most of the records have 0 although I'm not sure why it would be a problem I thought I would at least mention it.
I am trying to run a make table query that involves using a linked table in Ms from a SharePoint list. However, a few columns I wish to include in my Make table query are calculated columns from the SharePoint list.
The make table query will not run saying "Calculated columns are not allowed in SELECT INTO statements".
Can any think of a solution or a potential work around to this?
I need to create a table with these columns in it.
I have a Table which has a column that contains a Data (last day of the month: 8/31/2013, 9/30/2013) and also contains a Balance field.
What I am trying to accomplish is a query that will provide me with the total for the last month (Sept), and then also provide me with a Percent break down from a whole balance.
I have the following SQL for it:
SELECT ATB.FC, Sum(ATB.Bal) AS SumOfBal, (select sum([Bal]) from ATB) AS Total, Sum([Bal]/[Total]) AS [Percent] FROM ATB GROUP BY ATB.FC, ATB.MMDDYY HAVING (((ATB.MMDDYY)=Date()-Day(Date())));
Right now, when I run the above, the Sum(ATB.Bal) pulls just the month of September, but the Percent is pulling a percentage of each Sept. Value against the whole Balance for the Year. So, when I sum the percent column to get a total of 100% for the month of September, I am ending up with a number less than 20%.
I have a DB to keep track of my employees. I have one table with named EmployeeT with the basic information like name, address, phone number, etc. And another table named EmployeeHistoryT which tell me about there hisorty in the company, basically, If they were Late, did not show up, cancelled from that day. They share a relationship threw the employee ID. IN the history table, I have DateofAction:, TypeOfAction:, and Description:. In the type of action area I have it set to were you type in what they did, wether it be Late, Did not Show up, Cancelled, etc. I want to be able to get a total about of Late, Cancels, etc. I want to know that John Smith was Late 16 times, cancelled 10 times, and Did not show up 2 times. Is this possible with only one feild.
I need a way for my query to take all rows with the same TellerNum and add Field1, Field2, and Field3 together for those records. So, there may be 20 records with the same TellerNum, and I need Field 1, 2, and 3 to be added together and then totaled for all 20 records to give me 1 grand total. I need this to be done for each TellerNum, so that the results will be a grand total for each TellerNum. So, the results may look something like this:
I have a table called Price list, and in it I have two fields, one called Service and The other called cost. The services are listed and their matching prices are listed beside.
In another table called appointments, when making an appointment, I have linked the information so that I can choose from a dropdown from the price list table, under Service type.
I need to be able to create a receipt for the appointment. How can I do that in a query format?
I have a table ("tbl_idq_all") with a text field for product codes ("scode"), a date field (dd/mm/yyyy) and a quantity field ("po_qty"). This table therefore holds future receipts of stock for products.
What I am having trouble doing is create a running total of [po_qty] based on [scode] and [Date].
A good example is stock code 10254. This has a quantity of 40,032 arriving 01/06/2013 and a quantity of 30,096 arriving 01/09/2013.
I have 2 tables (person / merit) currently the merti table has 4 fields (MeritID, PersonID, Issuer, Type) I'm trying to count the the Type field 7 times, once of each type (MC/MI/MN/MP/MS/MV) and once to count a grand total.
I want to produce a query to use in a mail merge that will list the total for each merit type and one grand total.
I've been trying a few different things including sub queries but I've not managed to get the query to produce a single record that counts each individual type.
I am trying to create a query that has a self referencing running total based on the values (point totals) of itself (running total of values in the running total column that have already been calculated for all previous records) plus the total of new points being added in the current record, less the total of points being removed in the current record. This running total can never go below 0, if it does, the running total should restart at zero and add in only new points and begin the process again with the next records
I am able to do this in Excel in less than two seconds so I know there has to be a way to port this into a query. I've attached an excel example of what I am exactly trying to do
If it takes multiple queries to complete the required output I am ok with it. In my previous outtakes I have had up to 8 queries but just couldn't seem to do it..
Is it possible to total columns in a query? Right now, I have a query that produces the following column counts, but I'd like to total Pending, Overdue, etc. This data is being displayed in a subform.
Process Pending Overdue Total ------------------------------------- Engineering 1 2 3 Procurement 0 6 6 <etc> ------------------------------------- TOTAL 1 8 9 <- this is the line I want to add
Here's what the query (qryStatusRptB) looks like thus far: Field: Process Table: tblProcesses Total: Group By
Can someone explain how to get the TOTAL ROW in here? (I can do it via another query, but that won't work since the data is displayed in a subform. I've tried crosstabs without success.)
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.
I have two columns in my report that at the bottom it gives me the following total, as I put below. I am trying to take the two totals that is gives and get the percentage. 1058/3024 = 35%.
=Sum([TotScrwBlank]) =Sum([TotalAmount]) .349 or 35% 1058 3024
I had did the equation as =Sum([TotScrwBlank])/([TotalAMount]), but this is giving me the answer of 46% which is not correct.
I have a personal expenditure data base indicating daily expenditure on various heads ( File Attached). I want table to reflect expenditure on various heads on daily basis in COLTOT column. Any subsequent change in any of the field to be dynamically updated.Presently I am exporting file to excel and calculating the total there and then manually updating the COLTOT field. Other alternative I tried was to create a form and make a text field and sum the fields using formula like =nz([milk])+nz([vegetables]). I feel it may be unwieldy for such large number of expenditure heads.
1) I am pretty newbie to this access programming, do forgive me if my questions sounds stupid.
2) Basically I create an application in access capturing or production information for my company. now the top management suddenly wanted whats their main concern:- Total Daily/Monthly, Quarterly, Annual Sales (By Model If possible)
3) I start with daily (Lets don't be too overly ambitious).
4) I try to let user select dates from my calender control and reflect daily sales (in Total & By Model break down) insert into my form.
5) Understand someone told me from my previous post in Calender control I can achieve it either through forms or queries, which is a better way. (in terms of flexibility to change for program maintenance/ scalibility) wise ?
Is there a function or query that I can split a field into different columns?
For example, I have First Name, Last Name, Address.
But I want to split the address field into Address1, Address2, Address3, Address4 as the initial Address field has a lot of characters with commas e.g. 11 London Road, Liketown, Likeshire, London.
So, I want to be Address1: 11 London Road, Address2: Liketown, Address3: Likeshire, Address4: London.
I thought that I can export the field using a simple query and then re-import it with using the text field into columns option, but it is time consuming.
I am using Access 2003 and trying to create a report that has a running balance of payments into an account. There are also payments out of the account which reduce the balance.
When I add the other columns into the expression for the running total the result shows in the report as "0".
The expression I am using is: =([Escrow Pmt Amount]-[Ins Pmt Amount])
I have this expression in the "Detail" section of the report with the "Running Total" toggled to "Accross Group".
How can I subtract the values in the other columns (Outgoing Payments) from the balance and continue the running total.
The list of payments within the report are date driven and grouped by an account number.
I have 1 table that I duplicated to make 3 tables total. I did this b/c I am trying to create separate columns from the same field and table. The field is Workorder. Each workorder list the workorder number followed by a dash and then code. I am wanting to put all of the workorders with the same code in it's own column.
I have 5 codes that i am searching for. The first column list the workorder and a code (123456789-AD). The second column (123456789-BC). I'm good to this point but my problem occurs next.
The third column i am trying to put 3 types of workorder and it's code in the same column. As follows, (123456789-CD, 123456789-TC, and 123456789-PTC. However, when I do this it takes the results from the 3rd column and applies it to the 3rd column but also the 1st and 2nd column. I tried a UNION query and unless I am doing it incorrectly it does not work.
I've been using a SELECT INTO statement to import data from a linked text file into a temporary table in Access. Something along the lines of :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1, [tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2, [tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3 INTO [tblTemp] FROM [tblLink]
(There's an INNER JOIN in there and some Nz / CLng functions but just want to keep it simple...)
Now - I've just realised I also need to create a couple of extra 'dummy' fields in my temporary table (for later on in the show) and I need them to be Yes/No format (will set them to False at first, then run some separate queries later to update them)
I tried this :
SELECT [tblLink].[fld1] AS Field1, [tblLink].[fld2] AS Field2, [tblLink].[fld3] AS Field3, False AS Field4, False AS Field5 INTO [tblTemp] FROM [tblLink]
But this sets Field4 and Field5 as Number fields, with each record given a value of 0. What syntax is required in the SQL to make these fields Yes/No rather than Number?
I'm trying to make a nested if then statement in a query field, and I can't figure out why I can't get my formula to work:
Volume: IIf([MethodCode]="K",[total]*12.54*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="S",([length]*[width]*[depth])/2,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="SH",[total]*5.08*0.026873,IIf([MethodCode]="M" And [Location]="C",[total]*18.58*0.026873," "))))
I keep getting the "data type mismatch in criteria expression" error. If I separate out all the individual if then statements individually, they work. But if I connect them all as a nested if then it doesn't work.
I can add to my make table query UDate: Date() that will add a populated field to the output table that has today's date in it.
I can also add something similar like this for example V_Num: [V_Number] and when ran, will prompt with a dialogue box to add some data, it will then create the table with that new field name and populated with the text from the dialogue box.
But how can I automate this to skip the dialogue box and just add it to the expression?
