Queries :: Getting Summed Data From 2 Different Tables?
Jun 18, 2013
Here is my dilemma: I have a table where I am entering data for quantity of a product received. This data is further segregated by the mill it comes from, the grade it is, and the size it is. I have a second table where I track the output from when the product is processed through our system.
I need to be able to query / report the difference between these two sums (i.e. sum of total qty received from that mill/size/grade versus the total processed from that mill/size/grade). Basically, I am creating an inventory report showing how much "raw" product I have, grouped by the mill then the grade and then the size. I have to sort the data out this way because I purchase the exact same grade and size product from more than one mill.
My problem is that any query I have created so far wants to only show data from the two tables where the mill/grade/size match. In other words, if I have product that has been received, but nothing has been processed from that mill/grade/size combination, then I don't get data showing up at all. I need to be able to show all sums of product from the "receipt" side, and then only the "processing" data where I actually have processed something from that mill/size/grade combination, then show the difference. So the result would show something like "50 received, 0 processed, resulting in 50 on-hand" for that mill/grade/size.
This is a form used to enter in the hours worked for each employee for any particular job. What I'm trying to do, is show a total for all the hours worked for the job in a text box under the list. The cells that I want to total up are named "StartTime" and "EndTime," and they come from "tblRelEventEmployee." The form shown here is "frmEvent."
Each job can have anywhere from 1 - 30 employees, and I need to be able to basically have a calculation that does EndTime-StartTime for each employee, and then add up the total for each to give me a grand total of hours worked for the job.
Below is a formula that I have in my query. The problem I now have come up with is sometimes I will not want the allocated qty to be summed back onto the qty outstanding.
I have more fields in my form ( allocation)of which one is called " consumable" what I need the formula below to do is the consumable is not empty then don't add the " qty allocated" to the "qty outstanding"
I'm trying to create a database to track all the students details, I've created the data base with all the tables, relationship etc. i tested it with dummy data too and it worked fine.
I then imported the proper data from a .csv file, using the "File-Get External Data-Import" method rather than a macro, it imports the data with a couple of errors but the data still got through, i had previously created queries and reports and they worked fine with the dummy data but will not show any of the new imported data, its like it hasn't got a link or something but if i create a linked form, it will pick up the data, meaning the relationships are working. hence my problem
I currently have two different excel spreadsheets linked to access 2003. The first few columns are very similar with similar headings. What i have now is a form displaying the data from one spread sheet (Engine Status), and another form displaying the data from the other (Engine Health).
As I am very new to access is there a way that i can link the two spreadsheets together and display all the data on one single form. I would like a combo box to find the required serial number (tail number) and once the serial number is selected the data from both spreadsheets will be displayed.
The spreadsheets i have to work with are of set standard for ease to input data from numerous other sources. I have attached examples of the two spreadsheets with the headings that are the same between the two although i have attached these to a single work book in reality they are seperate work books.
What i would like is for a combo box to display the Tail number then have single boxes to display core serial numbers across the form in order of position, then all the other data associated with that core serial number displayed in seperate boxes below the core serial number. I hope this is possible as it will prevent a lot of toggling between forms.
I have two tables with name of accone and the second with the name of acctwo. These two tables are same according to number of columns and also same according to data types and also same according to the column names just the data are difference and also one column (attribute) with the name of ID is same in both tables. Their is a primary key relationship (one-to-one) between these two IDs. I need a query that can combine the data of both of them and can be updated using query. I mean that data of first table and second table must become under one same column not two columns one for first table and second one for second tabel.
At certain times, I want to archive employees out (lets say they are terminated). When I do this, something strange happens. If an employee has 4 records in the servicedata table and 4 records in the Classdata table, then it exports out 16 records (4 x 4). I would expect it to export out 8 records.
I have a query that pulls data from the following fields in 2 different tables:
Area1FloorPrep (tblFloorPrep) ex. remove ceramic tile Area1Size (tblInstallationAreas) ex. 20 s/f, or just 20 Area2FloorPrep (tblFloorPrep) Area2Size (tblInstallationAreas)....
All the way to Area20 (Floorprep and InstallationAreas) for both tables. I have created an installer invoicing form that pulls the data from the workorder that these fields are located in, but the problem I'm having is that I don't know what kind of query to create to concatenate the data in the 20 fields and concatenate the size of the areas next to the appropriate concatenated floor prep description. Is there a way to do this without coding?
I have 2 tables: one for repairs and the other for the billing for those repairs. There is a foreign key(record_num) in the billing table to match the primary key(prikey) in the repairs table. This works fine as long as the unit repair has been completed.
Now an employee wants to see records even if they are not completed and wants the rate to be $0.00 if the unit has not been completed. But by this method there is no record in the billing table.
My problem is if I have the 2 tables joined then I only see records that match both tables. Here is my SQL for the query:
SELECT DISTINCTROW tbl_module_repairs.end_user, tbl_module_repairs.pickup_date, tbl_module_repairs.complete_date, IIf([pickup_entity]="Storm","APS Storm","APS Field Tech") AS [Repair Pickup], tbl_module_repairs.mfg_part_num, tbl_module_repairs.manufacturer, tbl_module_repairs.module_type, tbl_module_repairs.incoming_module_sn,
tblSignUsedDetail is the line items, tblSignUsed is the orders. Therefore, the import function has to first take the first two columns to generate an order in tblSignUsed and then take the second two columns to generate order details associated with the order which was just created.
So I am pulling data from a SQL data base into access and appending it to certain tables. To do this I have 15ish append queries. Is there a way to have them run in a certain order with one command?
I have 9 seperate tables - each of the tables has similar headers
Claim # Agent Pass/Fail Request type Record Date
I have built relationships between all the tables. I am attempting have a singular query be run based on start and end dates under "record date" . I have the criteria already set. But when I run the Query no information is pulled. How do I get the query to pull this data from all 9 tables?
I have a database containing 3 tables: Book, Member, and Loan. A relationship exists between the 3 tables(the relationship has no problems, I have enabled referential integrity). I created a query named Loan Query which uses all the 3 tables.
In the loan Query, the Member ID field is in Loan Table and the Member Name field is in the Member Table. This allows the database to automatically type the Name when the Member ID is entered into the query retrieving the information from the Member Table. This also works fine. But the problem is that the Name field of the Loan TABLE (not query) remains blank. So i have to keep the required property of that field to no.
All I want to do is for the database to also write the Name in the Loan Table along with the Loan Query. I will also have to apply the same for other fields also.
I am a beginner in Microsoft Access and so whosoever replies, please elaborate the solution.
I am creating a table for data entry. Three fields in the table are going to be Firstname, Lastname, and Address. I want the choices for data entry to be read from a master table which contains first and last names and town of residence.
That being said I would like the choice of Lastname to be all last names from the master table, and the choices of Firstname to be those from the master table but are limited to having the Lastname as entered in the previous field, finally I want the Address field to be limited to those records which match the lastname and firstname. I have been playing around with lookup queries for each of the fields to no avail.
user_change primary key = user_change_id (AutoNumber) user_id (Number) which relates to the user_id from "users" table change_type (Text) action_date (Date/Time) ...
In user_change I record any changes made to the users table.
What I am wanting to do, within a query, is pull basic details from the "users" table (forename, surname, etc.) which is working fine, but also add in SPECIFIC data from the user_change table if it exists.
I want to pull ALL rows from the users table, not just specific rows, and not just rows where my criteria for the user_change table match.
This is the data I want to pull from user_change...
The MOST RECENT action_date WHERE change_type is LIKE "*issued*".
However there won't be a change_type LIKE "*issued*" for everyone - I want it to be included only if it exists.
At the moment my query is ignoring any users who don't have a user_change record with "*issued*" in the change_type value. I'm also getting duplicate user rows where people have more than one value for "*issued*" - I only want the most recent one...
I know that i can edit contents in a single table query and it will update the data in the underlying table, but how do i gain the ability to change data in a query when 3 tables are involved?
I have several fields that I fill in on a form and they all need to add up in the last field. The first way that I tried this worked good for the initial data entry on the form. However if I need to edit one of the fields in the form then it resets the TotalCost field and I have to enter all of the numbers again. Is there some way that I can make this work? Or is this an Access quirk I will have to live with?
I tried to do this two different ways.
Here is the code for the first method:
Option Compare Database Dim C1 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C2 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C3 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C4 As Long 'For Total Cost
[Code] .....
This way works great the first time that I tried it, I had to re-enter info in all the fields if I wanted to change one.
Here is my second method:
Which didn't work, i received an error message:
"The expression After Update you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Invalid outside procedure."
And then nothing changes.
Code: Option Compare Database Dim C1 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C2 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C3 As Long 'For Total Cost Dim C4 As Long 'For Total Cost
I have two identical Access tables, for example tblDataYesterday and tblDataToday. The data from tblDataToday has updated data changes in it that are different from tblDataYesterday. I have a maximum of 100 fields to review. I want to compare the two tables and display in a query the differences between the data from both tables.
I have a larget transaction data set in access with Datetime column/filed.
I have been running pivot queries to excel to do analysis of the data but the datetime field is returning too many unique values for the pivot table to run.
What is the best way to reduce the datatime field to date only and where should this be done?
i.e. should I have a calculated field that trims datetime or should I set someohting up in Powerpivot?
I have a complex database app that has a form called from the main form. It requires two inputs: BeginningDate and EndingDate and I use a calendar picker for date selection. Using data assigned to a variable, I build the SQL query in VBA. The result is:
Code: SELECT [1733_All Print Orders].[Application], Sum([1733_All Print Orders].[TotalImages]) AS SumOfCCPC FROM [1733_All Print Orders] WHERE [Application] = 'CCPC' AND [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# AND [StatementDate] <= #9/30/2013# GROUP BY [1733_All Print Orders];[Application]
[1733_All Print Orders] is a defined query that combines 4 tables together and there are data that falls within the dates for CCPC. But the query returns no records.
I pasted the query to the query builder and using different combinations, I isolated that the [StatementDate] >= #9/3/2013# portion is what returns no records
To complicate matters even worse, prior to today, it worked. I made some adds and changes to another area of the application, but did not touch this code.
Currently trying to build a database for customer management and order placement/tracking. Want to set a couple of rules so that if I for instance click yes of billing and shipping address the same that the database will automatically fill the shipping address with the data I inputted for the billing address in the same table.
The other issue I can see I'll run into is, I want to be able to select one of the company ID's (made up of a three letter abbreviation of the full company name) in the product ordering table and it will automatically fill in the rest of the customer data (phone, email, address etc) data into that form.
