Is there a way to write a formula in an Access query that would stack rank a group of numbers or dates in a field? I have a set of order dates and i want to rank by the most recent one. Being the recent orders in the top 20%.
If orderdate is in the top 20%, return a 5.
If Orderdate is in the next 20%, return a 4.
If Orderdate is in the next 20%, return a 3.
If orderdate is in the next 20%, return a 2.
Then the remaining numbers, return a 1
I've got a football table ranked by Points and Goal Difference:
e.g.
Team Pts Goal Diff
C 4 +2
A 4 +1
B 0 -3
and I want to introduce another field automatically (in a query) which gives the position of each team:
Pos Team Pts Goal Diff
1 C 4 +2
2 A 4 +1
3 B 0 -3
Can anyone help?
Thanks a lot

Could any one tell me how to change the ranking of a field from 1,2,3,4,5,6,....1000 to 1st,2nd,3rd,4th.5th.6th........1000th.
Nested if could only give upto 15, and another method that is i used worked but made the query to run too slow.

I have a simple query which lists names and next to each name is a sum of sales. I have sorted this sum field decending and now I need to add a third column in the query which ranks these.
Process Name: Sum of Variation: Rank
Process A 100 1
Process B 98 2
Process C 65 3
Process D 52 4
I am a beginner in access and am unsure how to automatically create the rank field.
I've found a few similar posts to this, but nothing exactly answers what I need.
I'm using the following query to get a list of the top five salesmen, based on the number of customers per salesman, per month. I've added a rankings field, based on a query I found here on the forum
SELECT TOP 5 [SalesResults_1].CurrMonthClients,
(SELECT count(*) FROM [SalesResults]
WHERE
[SalesResults].[CurrMonthClients] >=
[SalesResults_1].CurrMonthClients;) AS Rank,
[SalesResults_1].SPName
FROM
[SalesResults] AS [SalesResults_1]
ORDER BY
[SalesResults_1].CurrMonthClients DESC;"
This works perfectly, with one exception.
If two salesmen have the same number of clients and both are the joint highest, their rank is displayed as 2, rather than the desired 1.
Can anyone spot some simple change to the query that would take this eventuality into account?
Thanks in advance.
I have a list box that stores the project names in a Form. The user wants to have the ability to order the project in a way they want. And the report need to present this order in the same way. In other word, user wants to move the proejcts around in the listbox.
Could anyone give a hand? Thank you.
Have a table containing a column called "BOC" (Budget Object Code) that contains approximately 85 different 4 digit codes, with one selected for each row. (See sample below). Table has 30,000 rows of data. What I need to do is run a query that will give me a subtotal dollar amount for each unique BOC, and then display the results in descending order for both Obligations and Expenditures. Any ideas??
Sample Data:
COST CENTER BOC OBLIGATIONS EXPENDITURES
119900 2670 1000.00 500.00
119901 2685 2000.00 1000.00
119999 2670 5000.00 2000.00
119920 3130 5000.00 5000.00
Is there a way to update a field in a sorted query with its recordnumber value, as if to assign a rank to it?
Example Table contains Name, Grade, Rank sorted by Grade ASC
Record 1: John, A, *Update here*
Record 2: Tony, C, *Update here*
Record 3: Eric, D, *Update here*
The *Update here* is the bit that I need to update with each records recordnumber, so that the end result would be as follows:
Record 1: John, A, 1
Record 2: Tony, C, 2
Record 3: Eric, D, 3
Can anyone please help?
Thank,

Hello All
Firstly I have been reading this forum for a while picking up hints and tips and am very grateful so big grats and thanks to all you guys for the help
The problem I am stuck on at the moment will hopfully be quite simple, but I should point out I have absolutely no skill or knowlede in Modules and VB language I most of my "stuff" via statements within the Design view.
Ok so here we go. I have a query which brings back the top 50 performing sales items, which is done by sorting them in descending order and using that filter thing at the top of the design view, which is set to 50. What I would like to do is insert a field in the query which gives the rank, so the best seller is given number 1, the second best 2 and so on and so forth.
Sorry if there is a topic already, I have tried to search, but couldnt find what I was looking for.
Ta in advance for any help

In a table I have:
- Category (A, B, C)
- Family (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, etc)
- Item
- Sales
I'm looking for a way to get the top 10 items in each category + family based on sales (ie: top 10 in A-A1, then A-A2, then A-A3, etc). When I try using the top function, it doesn't treat each category + family combination as unique. Any ideas?
I found this from different fourm by searching google. This is exactly what I need to do and the answer was given; however, I can't figure it out. Can someone please post a step by step instruction on how to complete the following.
Thank you!
Question
I have a datbase full of projects that must be ranked in priority order. This was simple enough but when I add a project I will likely need to change the priority rank of all the "lesser" projects. With over 500 projects adding a new project with a rank of 50 means changing all the ranks 50 and above. I want to be able to add a project and when I determine its rank I insert the rank number and every rank equal to the project just added is the indexed by 1 digit. No two project can be ranks the same, one is always more important than another.
Answer
Create an update query that sets the priority field to:
[Priority] + 1
then set the criteria to
>= new number
Where new number is the rank of the new number.
This will increment by one each priority.
Hope this helps,

I am trying to build a report that will rank employees, based on their qualifications for a promotion to a specific position. I need to build one that will work for every position in the organization, based on the requirements for the specific position. I know this is vague, but before I go into a long explanation, can anyone tell me if this is even possible in Access?? Thank you!!

I reviewed a few ways to rank based on calculations and use them, however what I'm looking to accomplish is subjective ranking whilst limited the ranks to the total number of records in the recordset.
e.g. you have 50 records. Manually moving Record # 30 up to #3 would bump the existing records #3 to #29 down one (to #'s 4 through 30) and records >30 would stay the same.
Would deploy this to the end users within a continuous form, each row having Up/Down arrows to move each record up/down 1 rank as well as provide a combo box so they may choose any value within the array they want to set it to...

I'm looking for a way of ranking records within a query. Access doesn't have a Rank formula like in excel ...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a number of records in my database and I use a form to input information, update fields etc. One of these fields is a ratio. I would like to create another field, in the record, input from the form, that automatically generate the ranking of the record in the database using the ratio, in descending (or ascending) order. So if I have 1000 records, the field would return, right after I update the ratio, which ranking within these 1000 it now holds.
Is this possible? In the event two (or more) records share the same ratio, what happens?
I have a question regarding ranked matches in a query. My data is set up as follows:
Item, Customer, Shipping Plant
65432, 104321, 221
65433, 104321, 221 etc.
For some items and customer combinations, there are multiple plants that can provide the same item item to a customer. I would like to create a ranked column that puts a 1,2,3 and so on for these occurrences. So if a customer get one item from only one plant, the rank would be 1, but if a customer gets the same item from two plants, the first would be rank 1 and second, rank 2 (order doesn't matter).

How to query the example in the image below. My problem is:
1. If the student get a mark 49 below in any of their subject they will not be included in the ranking.
2. If all of the student mark is above 49, I need to rank the student base on their average.
Query is based on 1 table" tblTimeCnv_AgeGroups
Fields:
AgeGroup Time Ranking
30-& under 11.22 1

In the Ranking column the result is: #error in the first 3 rows then zeroes
Hi guys,
Simple Question perhaps, but it has me stumped. I have a rather complex crosstab query which is used on a website (ASP) that shows a ranking for a competition. Now I need to add the rank itself, so say, just numbers from 1 to 10 which simply correspond with the row # since its ordered properly (descending by score). Sounds simple enough, but I have NO idea how to do that..
Anyone got an idea ?
Thx,
Vertigo
If my make queries in the data base and the source data base is another .mdb and the table names in the other .mdb which would be used for the queries are the same as those in the data base where the queries would be made......does anyone see any problems with that in the area of corruption or similar.
The queries made would be indentical to their counterparts in the data base where they are made and would serve the same purpose.
It would be a toggle type of thing whereby the recordsources for the forms in question would be changed.
For what I want to do it works perfectly but I am not sure if there would be problems that would only surface with longer term use and varied conditions as opposed to some short term testing.
I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1
ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10
1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)//
2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..//
3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data
2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data
3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.
First I would like to give thanks to all the knowledgeable folks here who have helped me with my DB to date. It is working and every one is very happy and I have learned a lot.
So now I would like to add some more functionality to this existing project.
My DB is for data input of customers for a drawing. It has the following fields: Id, account number, first name, last name, date/time, score1, score2.
I t is taking a great deal of time for the users to enter in hundreds of entries a day. Most of the entries are customers who are already in the DB. I would like to get the fields to auto fill the data for existing customers say after the account number is entered. So after you put in the account the name and any other pertinent data would shows up saving users from typing it in again.
The first problem I am having is that this is still a data entry form and I can’t figure out how to be able to see the account information and still add new data to the record? The new data is a daily score they get.
Second I haven’t figured out how to call up the customers information from just the account field.
I’ve googled this and haven’t found anything terribly helpful.
i would like in a form for a combo box to be able to select an item from a table and input relating information automatically into other boxes in the form..
I have 3 tables: Table 1 has product code and product description.
Table 2 has invoice number company details, address etc.
Table 3 has product code and product description qty and invoice number..
Table 3 relates to table 2 by the invoice number and table 3 product code looks up the product codes available in table 1 and also table 3 looks up the list of products descriptions in table 1 using the combo wizard.
This means the wrong code can be put with wrong description.
What i would like to know is how i select a product description and the product code in the form fills out automatically?? i hope this makes sense please helppppp!!
