Queries :: How To Trigger By Date To Create A New Entry In Database Based On Old Entry
Aug 6, 2014
I have a database that makes use of standing orders. That means that if a client has a standing order to receive products during for example 4 time as year (quartely at the end of the month). to automate the new entry by copying an old entry in the database.
Let's say I have a client where we will have to send a product at the end of June, it will look at a field where the next send date is, and when it reaches 2 weeks for that date, to create a new entry in the database based on that entry. This way, it will pop-up in our open cases and we are aware of it and also will be visible in our report.

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.

Therefore want to create an entry in the middle table with foreign keys from either link automatically

How to create a table that has a recurring entry, based on a start date and a nominal interval period of e.g. one calendar month?
Is it possible to have these entries applied automatically each time so that they appear, as required, when the table is opened?
For example, for the entry of regular payments due per month.

I have a date field with dates stored as MM/DD/YY, ie.10/13/09 and I want to use an UPDATE statement to change the year from 09 to 2009 but keep the 10/13/. The issue I'm encountering is when I use a wildcard in the SET portion it takes that as literal and updates with the wildcard. ie. Set Date = '*2009' WHERE Date LIKE '*09' updates the column with *2009 as the entry and not 10/13/2009. How can I update my field so I end up with 10/13/2009, not *2009?

Right now i have a qry that takes ID - Name - Order - RepeatOrder - Month - Department.
Now when i run the qry what i want is a grand total of Order/Repeat Order by Name for the Month, what is happening is the qry is creating multiple entries for different departments. I even have Department "Group by" but still causing the issue, For example:
For APR:
4/1/14 Dep A 12 2
4/1/14 Dep B 10 2
However i do not want them separated, how to i merge the data into 1 entry? 4/1/14 22 4?

I have a database that is used to allocate appointments to our staff. It has 2 tables, one that lists the clients we need to call in that day, and another that stores details of each contact attempt. I'd like to design a query that find all clients who we have not dealt with so we can easily get their details in a list. I know what the criteria for the query would be, but I'm stuck for how to actually execute it. Here are the details.
Table tClients stores the current clients - primary key is named "clientRef"
Table tContactEvents stores each contact attempt and the date/time is stored in a field named "dateTime".
When an entry has been dealt with successfully a yes/no field named "completed" will be set to "Yes".
There may be many attempts to contact a specific client on a given day, unsuccessful attempts will not have the completed flag set.
Once the completed flag is set that client will be ignored so no further entries will appear.
So I need a query that searches tContactEvents for the most recent match to each number in tClients.clientRef and checks if the completed flag is set. If the completed flag is false, or if the number has no match (i.e. no contact attempts made yet) then the clientRef should be displayed. I also need this to be restricted to the current date, as the same client could have rebooked their appointment to a different day.

I am working on creating an access database for tracking physical assets linked to locations. I need to make a combo box list to show items other than the current location of the asset. Basically I need it to refer to last enery of the user and define the new possible entries. so we have a unique relationship between location and asset. The assets and location will always remain fixed and there is never going to be any addition. I am creating a web form so that it can be uploaded into sharepoint.

In my DB I'm tracking seed. I have a form that I enter in some info in and an ID number is created (based on that info). Then in a different form I track "events" that happen to that ID (drying, moved, bagged). Is it possible to have a button or something like that that after my ID is created from my frmHarvest to automatically generate an event in tblEvents that has the date the ID number and then have something like Harvested in the description field?
If possible can I get some hints on what to do?
Thanks,
Rick

Could anyone of you give me some sugguestions on designing a nice/efficent Data Entry interface (Form design) for adding new records?:
I have bound a Form with a table and linked all the textbox with the relevant fields in the table. I created a add new record button through the wizard provided by MS-Access as: DoCmd.GoToRecord,, acNewRec.
While, each time when I opened that Data Entry Interface, the current always pointed to the first one rather than leaving the blank field for data entry. Even I changed the value in those textbox, the system didn't create a new record in the table at all, only modifying the first record.
I know how to write the VBA code to open table and add new records by retrieving data from the Form interface, but I wonder whether there is more efficent solution by combining the default function/facilities from MS-Access itself and some VBA code. Also, it can have some validation before storing data into the tables.
Many Thanks

I have created a form to be used for data entry, Where i have identified standard data, I have set the Combo Box on the form to be a "Value List" so as to standardise the data entry.This creates two problems for me.
1. When Using the form, instead of saving the text value to my table it is entering a numerical character?
2. On two of my combo boxes, whilst they have been configured the same, when i try to select an option for the list, it does not accept it? when i try to type the same option into the field of the form it tells me that the option is not in the list?

I am trying to create a form for data entry. I would like the Total Balance in the last record to become Total Cost in the new record. However, if the total balance in the previous record is =<0 it prompts the user to enter a new total cost else use the last Total Balance. The form in question is FrmSubClients in the attached file.

I'm currently using the text field to put in, "10/30" or "1/3" but when I try to order the dates, instead of "1,2,3,4,5,6..." I get "1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3.." etc.

I have a primary school database. I'm trying to create a form that allows a teacher to select their class, then select a subject and then be presented with a data entry form in a table layout that lists only their student's names in one column and an empty column to input results for the selected subject.
To simplify my explanation to just three tables, lets say my tables are:
> Students....which stores student names plus a foreign key for their class
> Classes...which stores the class name
> Results...which stores all the results (fields are: ResultID (key), StudentID, SubjectID, Result, DateofResult)
I have no problems creating reports where the teacher selects their class from a combo box to generate a report based on a crosstab query. But this one has me stumped.

I am trying to create a duplicate of a certain record in a table so that the user can then edit the new record - or old record even as it doesn't matter - as long as one of them is original. The idea is that any revisions / changes are stored the user may of made.

My database tracks individuals qualifications. These qualifying scores relate to Unqualified, Expert, Advanced etc. What I want to do is add a entry into my roster table which will have the qualification score.
I then want to have the score and actual qualification (Advanced, Expert, etc) in a Report.
The qualification type is a range (less then 30, 31-40, 41-50), and I think that I will need a BETWEEN statement. What I am not sure of is how to put this together to make it equate the number with the equivalent word in a report.
Thanks

Hi
I am an amature with databases and a bit rusty too. Can anyone help me with this problem?
basically I want to automatically enter a unique asset code for one table that is based on product and manuafacturer's codes from other tables
e.g. for audio visual eqipment
The first table would be a manufacturers table with the manufacturers code as the primary key e.g. JVC, HTC (hitachi), SHP (sharp) etc
The second table would be a product table with the product code as the primary key e.g. AMP, DVD, LCD (lcd tv) etc.
( i would also have a customer table and an asset repair table)
In my asset table I would like to enter an asset code as the primary key of the type JVC-DVD-001, JVC-DVD-002, HTC-LCD-001 etc by looking up codes from the other tables and then adding the last number.
(Ideally once the manufacturer's code has been selected only the product codes for products made by that manufacturer would be displayed).
(Also it would be ideal if referential integrity could be set up so that the asset code components can only contain valid manufacturer and product keys.)
The asset code cannot be a compound key as I want to have a repair records table in which the asset code is entered as a single field with referential integrity to the asset field in the asset table.
When entering repairs I would like the lookup field to display only the assets belonging to a particular customer.

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.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm new to this forum and I'm sorry if this is a repeat question...I looked in previous threads, but could not find my particular questions.
Here's the situation:
I enter a bird name in my form (I've set up a combo box of 200 choices). Each bird species has an max and min possible wing measurement. So when I enter a newly captured bird in my form, the wing measurement must fall between the minimum and maximum for that particular species. I've done similar things with cascading combo boxes, but can't figure out how to the do a between-type statement in this situation.
Thank you much,

I've got a data entry form that is used to enter incoming waste consignment data. (I've attached a screen grab of the form) Each screen represents one record and the data is recorded in a table called "IncomingWaste". The top of the form (light blue) refers to the customer/producer of the waste. Most of that detail is held in another table on the db. The bottom (Dark Blue) part is used to record the consignment data. It gives the user a grid to enter the individual waste components within the consignment (choosing from Drop down menus for the various descriptive elements) Most crucially, the weight of each component is recorded.
I have a calculated field at the bottom which gives a Total weight for that consignment. It simply adds the weight fields together and delivers a total in the box at the bottom of the screen which displays the total weight in that consignment using "Nz([weight1])+Nz([weight2)]+ ...etc - which works fine on the form. However, I can't seem to get this calculated total recorded and appended to each record in the table and I assume it must be re-calculated each time the screen loads (?)
The main issues is.... I need to create a report which adds the total weights from each customer over a monthly/quarterly period and I simply cannot seem to do it.
I have created the report which groups all the consignments from each customer and lists them in date order, but I can't identify or define the method I need to use to collect that Total Weight calculation from each consignment record and add them up to give a grand total for that customer for a particular period. I'm assuming if I can crack the first part and get the total recorded in the table, then I can call the value into the report.

I have a textbox on my form that is for "week of", always a Monday. There is vba to populate the appropriate Monday when the user selects something other than Monday via the date picker. This code is in the on change event. However, this is not friendly to a user entering a date in this field. I did try after update event, but that requires user to leave the "week of" field. This is not acceptable in this instance, there are other form fields that change as a result of this "week of" value.I also tried evaluating the length of the text or else exiting the code. However, I was expecting the date being returned from the date picker to always be 10 positions, but for March 3rd, it would return 3/3/2015...which is only 8 positions.

Hi,
I currently have a form that creates a report based on a query that takes in a start date and an end date.
What I would like to do is to create comboboxes that will let the user choose a month and year for the report.
Is there a simple way to choose an entire month in access? I've tried using the Month() function to no avail.
The SQL statement for where I select the start and end date is below:
WHERE ((([tblData].[EntryDate])
Between [Forms]![frmByRange]![BeginningDate] And [Forms]![frmByRange]![EndingDate])
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hello,
I have two tables which contain the following fields (simplified);
Table 1:
ID
Startdate
Enddate
Table 2:
ID
Unitdate
Treatment
The tables are related (one-to-many) through the ID field.
In operation, the user first enters the Startdate and an Enddate for a patients' hospital stay in Table 1. Following this, the user enters the Startdate again in the Unitdate field in Table 2 and selects a Treatment from a drop-down list. After this, the user enters the following in the Unitdate field and selects a treatment. This is repeated in consecutive order until the Enddate is reached.
The end result looks like this;
Table 1:
ID Startdate Enddate
123456 01/01/2005 04/01/2005
Table 2:
ID Unitdate Treatment
123456 01/01/2005 Ventilation
123456 02/01/2005 Ventilation
123456 03/01/2005 Haemofiltration
123456 04/01/2005 Ventilation
Does anyone know if there is any way to restrict the Unitdate field in Table 2 to only allow dates to be entered that are between the Startdate and Enddate fields in Table 1? Ideally, I would like the Unitdate to populate automatically with the dates, starting with the Startdate value and ending with the Enddate value and filling in all the intermediate dates. Also I would like to make sure that there is no way of having duplicate dates in the Unitdate field.
If anyone can help, I would be extremely grateful.
Best wishes
Russell
