How to get the last Thursday of previous month?
For 5 particular queries I need to pull the date range starting at the last Thursday of the previous month forward.
I have a query based form i use to gather data to generate a report. I have 2 forms Form A is where users open all reports from. On form A i have 2 unbound fields "Report Start Date" and "Report End Date" my queries us these from Form A as the criteria for the queries. I have like 30 reports using this method and it works great. I am now building 2 new reports, a monthly and a weekly report. These reports required and data entry point so i built "Form B"
I created my tables for these reports and went through and created the records. So when a manager needs to enter data for any given report they would us "Report Start Date" to identify what record they want to work with, so if they want to enter data for the December report the would select 12/01/2014 and then open "Form B". This works great and the report looks as good as any Access report can.
Now they are asking to add to "Form B" a comparison to the previous month or week depending on the report. for example:
This month we did 250 units
Last month we did 300 units
so we did 15% less
"Yes my math is not exact"
They don't need to see last months data but i need a way to query the previous record to compare the data
This is the criteria code i use in the query that "Form B" is based on.
Code:
[Forms]![Form A]![Report_Start_Date]
I am pulling up the 12/01/2014 in "Form B" but need the 11/01/2014 record floating behind to compare data.
How can i use the same setup but pull a 2nd record? I am thinking i can use a 2nd query but with different criteria.
I searched but could not find a simple answer.
I want to see all results from last month for [TestDate]
Month(Date())-1) ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
I have a query with the following fields:
[Clinic] [Month] [Year] [NewPatients]
Some of the calculations I would like to do are based on the number of new patients that a certain clinic received in the previous month. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can create a field that has the number of new patients from the previous month?
What I have is this:
PrevMonth: DLookUp("[NewPatients]","ClinicQuery","[Month] = " & [Month]-1)
What I can't figure out is how to account for the fact that I have multiple clinics in the [Clinic] field and each clinic has multiple years in which it was receiving new patients. The PrevMonth statement above works fine for the first clinic listed in the query during the first year it received patients (entries are sorted by month and year), but then just repeats these data for each subsequent year and clinic. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
i need 2 comboxes. 1 with year and 1 with month. the year is easy just do this in rowsource sql:
SELECT DISTINCT (DatePart('yyyy',uitvoering.begindatumtijd)) AS Jaar
FROM uitvoering;
but the month is a lot harder because it needs to show the months where the year is the same as the combox with year and only show months where there is data in my table. for example i have data for only 3/12 months in a year then i need to show only those 3 months.i made this in vba because i think it can't be done in rowsource with sql code.
Private Sub Tekst19_Click()
Dim year As Integer
year = Me.Tekst17.Value
CurrentProject.Connection.Execute "SELECT DISTINCT (DatePart('m',uitvoering.begindatumtijd,,)) AS Maand FROM uitvoering WHERE (DatePart('YYYY', uitvoering.begindatumtijd)) = year"
End Sub
Hi all
I've got a db system linked with webpages that handles rent management and i'd like to set up an email reminder every thursday to tell the student tenants to put the rubbish out for the bin man. I have their email addresses in one table and another table telling them whether its recycling or landfill rubbish.
Basically the question is how would i go about getting access to send the email at a certain time and date ?
Many thanks
I am trying to create a database that will keep track of the orders placed for a given part number by month. Currently, my table houses the part number, and the ordered amount for the past three years by month (there are thirty-five columns for every part). My column headings are ORDER_MAY_2013, etc. I would like to set a query up that will look at the column headings and pull the amounts ordered for each part for the past twelve months. In other words, I have three years of data in my table. In my query, I just want one year. However, I don't want to have to rewrite the query every month so that it will pick up the new data. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Is there a better way to build this database? I thought about just have four columns in my table - PART_NUMBER, ORDER_MONTH, ORDER_YEAR, ORDER_AMOUNT. The only problem there, is that every part (there are about 450 parts) would have to be listed 35+ times. That seemed too redundant to me, so I built the table this way. However, now I am having trouble querying against it.
Hello,
I've been looking through the archives and learnt a fair amount about date manipulation, but am still a bit stuck. I'm sure there is a way to do this and would appreciate any ideas:
Basically I am monitoring changes in Fuel level over months. For each month, I have a variety of readings, each on a different table, including sales from that tank, delivery in to it, and most importantly a closing dip reading taken at the end of the month.
In order to figure out the change in Fuel level over each month, you need an "opening" figure : this is taken to be the closing dip value of the previous month. And this is where I'm getting stuck!
I am writing a query to generate new table which combines all the relevent values. I have managed to link them through the date field, even though the specific date is not identical what matters is that it is the same month. Effectively I am trying to add a new 'column' showing the opening value, where opening value = previous months closing value for this tank.
I noticed there is a post talking about previous month data <a href="http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=39708&highlight=previous+month">here</a>, which gives me some ideas but I'm not sure how to go about putting this into the SQL query. I can't use Date() because I'm interested in more than just previous to THIS month - the data spans back over a year!
I'm still learning Access so this might be a simple question - if so please point me to the relevent parts of the help file!
many thanks

I am creating a Stock investment Profit and Loss Query, therefore I need to get the prices from the last day. The problem is that the last day can be a holliday or weekend when the market is closed and when it happens the query returns no price.
My question is: Is there any function or any other way I can get the last day DATE from a range of dates?
Hello everyone.
I use Duplicates Wizard to run about 14 queries which will show all possible combinations of duplicated records in an access table. Can anyone tell me how to add an extra column in reports 2 onwards displaying either a "yes" or a blank cell, being the answer to the question "does this record appear in any previous reports?"
Hope you can help.
Thanks.
I currently have a table where we are logging a task number against a date and time for each employees to track activity.What I am looking to do is in a query have access lookup the previous reference number for the employee before the date/time of the individual record but on the same day
example
Staff 1 08/08/2015 12:00 Task Ref: 1234
Staff 1 09/08/2015 14:00 Task Ref: 3456
Staff 1 09/08/2015 15:00 Task Ref: 7891
to show something like
Staff 1 08/08/2015 12:00 Ref:1234 Previous Ref: Null
Staff 1 09/08/2015 14:00 Ref: 3456 Previous Ref: Null
Staff 1 09/08/2015 15:00 Ref: 7891 Previous Ref: 3456
Fields are
Employee
DTActStart - this is when task started
DTActEnd - this is when activity ended
Task ID - Reference for task (unique field)
I've tried seaching forums (Used DMax and Lookup) but doesnt find the most recent record before the in view record/I'm thinking a query is the best way so that when Print a report of tasks run of tasks will then show
Simple example of what I'm trying to achieve...
Table with two fields:
read_date---read_value
--------------------------
01/01/13-----10
01/02/13-----20
01/01/14-----30
01/02/14-----40
Would like to create a query or queries that summarises the data as follows:
read_date--2014--2013
------------------------------
01/01/14----30----10
01/02/14----40----20
In words, read_date would list dates for the current year. Second column of query would give read_value for current year. Third column would give read_value for same day/month of previous year.
Have thought about using Dlookup to get value one year back, but not sure if is the best approach?
I have a table that will have ITEMID as unique field but location could have save values. I tried using DLOOKUP to look at the value for the previous record to see if I need that value is same as current, however, since my data query are text formats, I am unable to. I get a message of mismatch data type. apply my query to look at sorted table by Location and ITEMID and if previous location = location, then my area=0?

I need to multiply every $US sales record (marked with U) with the FX rate in order to convert it to the Canadian currency. Unfortunately, this FX lookup table is missing over 50 daily rates in the last two years and as a result I cannot match them date-by-date with the sales table.
As a workaround, it is acceptable to use the previous FX rate in the table. The previous rate can be one or more days before the transaction occurred.
Attached is a sample database with the query that I've already built. The query contains two sample US records that are missing the FX rate on Jan 6. The FX rate of $1.0639 that needs to be applied to it should come from Jan 3rd entry.

I have a database where I need to record student data, specifically marks and absenteeism. The marks are recorded each term as a running total. I have a final mark which needs to be equal to the 4th term mark.
I also need to record the number of days absent each term with a total at the end of the year.
My problem is that the term 4 mark is a in the previous record and the total days absent needs to be the total of the previous 4 records (term 1 - 4).
I using a create table query and an update query but that was a no go.
How do I find the previous record in a query using the autonumber field?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a form that is used to book a new event for a client who is already in the database.Within that form I have a subform that is based on a query which displays information from that client's previous event. I did this using a solution found in the following thread: URL...It is based on pulling the second to last record that is related to the current client. It works perfectly when booking a new event that has taken place on a previous date. However, if the previous event occured on that same date (but at a previous time), it doesn't register.
I would prefer a query that would pull the record previous to the current one, instead of pulling the second to last record out of all that client's events.it would also mean that if more events are booked, then a past event is opened in a form, the sub forms in that form will display the event just prior to the current record.
Table:
Date Item Quantity
------------------------------------------------
10/20/2013 Item-A 2
10/20/2013 Item-B 4
10/21/2013 Item-A 2
10/21/2013 Item-B -1
=====================================
On 10/22/2013, if Item was selected, I want to bring forward previous day balance as of 10/21/2013 for Item-A = 4 or Item-B = 3.
I have a table composed of the following fields:
1. Entry_ID:
2. Item:
3. Previous_Balance:
4. Increase_Or_Decrease:
5. Current_Balance:
Once the selected item had been entered, i want the Current_Balance of previous entry of that item to be forwarded automatically in Previous_Balance field. Is it possible? I have at least 100 types of items.
I have this columns :
Income | Outcome | Transport | Total Income | Date
Total Income (N) = Income (N) + Transport (N-1)
Total income equals income from that day + transport from previous day
Transport (N) = Total Income (N) - Outcome (N)
Transport from previous day equals Total Income minus outcome
How can I calculate the transport from previous day to sum to next day total income?
I have a query that displays the difference between the number of scanned and processed invoices for each date (invoices scanned minus processed). Now I would like to make a query that for each date based on this shows the total backlog accumulated.
Example table:
The first column contains the date, and the second number of invoices scanned minus invoices processed.
2014-01-02 53
2014-01-03 -15
2014-01-04 24
Would it be possible somehow to make a query that for each lines shows the complete sum of all previous lines?
Based on the above data the result should be:
2014-01-02 53
2014-01-03 38
2014-01-04 62
Or would I have to write some VBA code to create some kind of temp table?
What's the best way in an update query, using access 2003, to update data in a record based on the previous record having an identical value in a certain field?
For example my data looks something like this, in this example I want row 2 to fill in the blanks with the data from row 1 as they both have the same ID number at the end highlighted in red:
1 2 Anywhere Street 1 2 1 1 5423
2 4 Anywhere Street . . . . 5423
3 6 Anywhere Street 1 2 1 1 6401
4 8 Anywhere Street 1 2 1 1 6402
I've found various threads here on how to copy the whole record but I only want to copy the data from certain fields. More oftem than not the fields I'll be copying to will be NULL.
how to reference a field from the previous record within an update query I could probably work it out from there?
I'm trying to refer to previous record in a query and i'm stuck as i do not know how to do it.
Here is my query:
Code:
SELECT
[Prod2Buy].[Product Code],
IIF([Missing] IS NULL,0,[Prod2Buy].[Quantity To Order]-[To Order]) AS [Rest To Order],
s.s_manu_code AS [Manufacturer Code],
s.prod_cost AS [Price Code],
[Code] ....
In fact the line: IIF([Missing] IS NULL,0,[Prod2Buy].[Quantity To Order]-[To Order]) AS [Rest To Order] should refer to previous record.
I have a table set up like:
CUSTOMER ID / CUSTOMER NAME / PAYMENT ID / PAYMENT DATE
Only want to show the last of each payment per month in form based on query.
So if they have a payment in April of $900 on 4/15 and then a payment in May 5/2 $500 and May 15 $1000
It will show two rows...one for April $900 payment and one for May $1000 payment.
I know the logic is something like
If more than one payment row for month, show last, otherwise only one payment for that month show the one payment.
I tired just setting hte "last" paramater but it only shows the very last payment, not taking month into account. So it only shows the $1000 may payment. thx
I have a table which is used to record electric billing period dates, total kWh and costs for a list of locations each month. I would like to compare the quarter total kWh and costs for this year "2013" against same quarter last year "2012". I have created two queries, the 1st is capturing data from 2013 and the 2nd is capturing data from 2012. I created a 3rd query which joins the 1st and 2nd together by month where fields match. Both tables have the same fields, however there is more records in 2012 than 2013. How can I join the tables together so months that have no data are left blank?
