Reports :: Display Breakdown Of Unique Reports In The Footer
Jun 16, 2014
I am trying to produce statistics reports in my database. The user selects the information they require in a form (date from, date to etc). A query then produces the results listing each job in turn which is what I want however at the end I would like to produce sub-totals for each client.
Depending on the criteria selected by the user, only some clients will appear in the list. Ideally I would like the footer to show something like:
Client 1 - 4 jobs
Client 2 - 1 job
Client 5 - 6 jobs
Client 6 - 17 jobs
I have been tasked with creating a database to log employee suggestions and then automatically present reports around the site. I have developed the database and it works OK and can output *.PDF reports, but I'm having problems with how to display these reports. My idea was to output the reports automatically as *.TIFF or *.JPG files and have them stored in a folder that the My Pictures screensaver uses. The reports (in fact, any site report stored in this folder) can then be shown on any screen dotted around the site when it goes into screensaver mode. However I can't find any way to output/convert to a picture file.
The other option is to create a webpage that rotates through the saved PDFs, but this isn't ideal as the PC users will have to load the webpage to display the reports.
It turns a number like this "120" into elapsed time in hours and minutes like this "2:00"
I have a report with an elapsed time for all of the items. I simply want to SUM it at the report footer, but i guess my control source turns it from a number into text, which then cannot be summed ?
I have a 14 page report in which I want the footer to appear only on the first page. I accomplish this with some code in the OnFormat event of the page footer:
If Page > 1 Then Me.PageFooter2.Visible = False Else Me.PageFooter2.Visible = True End If
The first page has the footer (great).
The 3rd thru the 14th page does not (great).
The 2nd page also doesn't have the footer - but - it only shows a half page of data! The data continues where it left off on the third page!
So, to sum up:
1st Page: Footer with detail section containing 16 rows of data.
3rd thru 14th Page: No footer section with 28 rows of data.
I current have three different reports that are the same except for the footers. That means that each time I have a change to the report, I have to remember to make the change on all three copies. Is there a way to add (1) some custom text such as "Client Copy", "Please Sign and Return", "Our Copy" plus one or two data fields from the report query in the page footer (the data fields would be different for each copy)?Basically, what I would like to do is have just one report, but print three copies of it, with each of the three copies having different footers as described above. Is this possible?
I have a report that has a group within a group. The interior group has a footer with a textbox calculating an average. I would like the Outer group to then SUM the averages. I tried doing a =sum([TextBoxWithTheGroup Average]), but access prompts me for the value of this box when I run the report.
To summarize: is there a way to sum a textbox within the footer of a grouping
I am struggling with building and If Then statement in my Report Footer. I have a report that pulls data from two tables...Students and Homeroom. This gives me a list of the students in each homeroom class and they are separated by homeroom. I would like to use a function in the page footer that counts the number of students who are members of our PTSA organization and then returns a percentage based on the total number of students in each homeroom class.
What I need is for the function to look at the FamilyID field and determine is there is any value entered. Then I need a count the total number of records in that homeroom and the total number of records with a value, so I can then get a percent of how many students actually belong to the PTSA in each homeroom.
I have a form with attached subform from which I can choose which records to send to a report. All records in the base table have a comment text field for the user to enter additional data (comments). Typically, there are none, but when there is, if it is only a single record sent to the report, the comment is printed in the page footer. However, if there are multiple records being sent to the report and only one record has text in the comment field, unless it's the last record it the subform, it will not print in the report. There isn't enough room in the detail section to include the comment field (like I said, it's typically not used and when it is, they can be lengthy). Is there a way to get the comment field to print in the report page footer when it is not either the only record selected, or the last record?
I've got a problem in my access 2007 database. In my office, I have to print invoice reports on pre-ready papers. So the place of every printed object should be fixed. my problem is that whenever the list of sales icons increases or decreases in Detail section of report, the location of total part in report footer goes up or down. I want this location to be immobile and not changed !
I was able to create only 3 pages in access report. I am not able to go beyond 3 pages since the page footer is not moving down, means I am not able to drag it down.
It is a simple report of resume with only text boxes. My report comes around 10 pages.
The first report example is what I get when I start on the main form and select an organization, run the report, opens report - BIG SPACE between the details and my footer section which holds a subform.
The second report is what I need it to look like, what's strange to me is I get the report correctly when I just run the report (I don't pass the organization into the report from the main form)
I tried changing the background color of the detail section and the footer section to figure out where my problem is but the space just stays white.
I have a music database in which I keep track of my CDs and how many times I've listened to them. I have a report that uses grouping to show me the total listens for each artist for each year - the totals are in a group footer, with nothing in the detail section of the report. It looks something like this:
The first line is the column header showing years (last 2 digits for space reasons).
The second and subsequent lines are created in the group footer section, first is the artist name, then the Sum of listens for all titles by that artist in the year given ([Sum of Listens1994]).
This report works perfectly.
Here's what I want to do, and I can't get it to work:
In the above lines of data, let's say that the earliest title for BAND1 is from 1975, and the earliest title for BAND2 is from 2001. My yearly counts start in 1994. Therefore, there were listens for BAND1 prior to 1994, but there weren't any listens for BAND2 prior to 2001.
GOAL: Instead of showing "00" on the BAND2 line for years 1994-2000, I want them blank.
I've put a conditional format code in OnFormat for the group footer section, telling Access to turn visibility off for the text box control ([Sum of Listens1994] etc) if the [Earliest] field (which contains 2001) is greater than the year being displayed (1994 first, and so on). This, which seems like it should work, makes no difference. Oddly, if I put a F9 code break on the If statement, it never breaks, which makes me believe the code is never even being executed.
I do have prior experience with controlling field visibility in forms and reports, so the concepts aren't new to me. I feel like the big difference with this one is that it's in the group footer section rather than the detail section. [Access 2013]
I have an old access database (written with 2003 but running under 2010) that creates workorders and I need to change a couple of the reports to print three copies with each copy having different text in the footer. I'm converting the reports from a old DOT Metrix special form printer to a laser printer. I have already modified the reports as far as the titleing and cosmetics are concerned and they print and look great on the laser printer. I have also added a TxT box that I want to contain the information on the report.
The reports are generated in a couple of different ways off different screens in the system off buttons, but I figured if I can get one of them to work I can replicate it to the others.
I have gone through the reports forum and have found a couple of solutions but can't get them to work. This is what I have found:
On the on button to print a range of workorders (it drives a query that asks for a starting workorder number and a ending workorder number) click from the from the switchboard:
I am trying to create a report that has a header ( all ok ) then could have 1 or 15 detail lines ( all ok ) which contain cost for each line
then I have a footer with the subtotals of the costs and also bank details then I have footnotes
What I need the report to do is keep the subtotals, bank details and the footer notes at the bottom of the page all the time weather I have one detail line or 15 detail lines
What is happening at this time is the footer information is moving up or down depending on the number of lines I have.
I have a report that counts the number of monthly calls. What I would like is an average of the monthly calls in the report footer.
My total for a particular month is =Count([Date]) and I named the unbound control MonthlyTotal.
This is in the DateFooter section of the report.
I then put an unbound control in the report footer and used the expression = Avg([MonthlyTotal]).
Of course when I changed from design view to report view, it asked me for an input of [MonthlyTotal].
I then tried =Avg([Reports]![qryLetterWritersbyDate]![MonthlyTotal]) and while it didn't ask me for an input, there was nothing in the ubound control in the report footer.
I have search for an answer, but all I find is using a query. Is what I am attempting to do possible? If so, how?
I am trying to create an invoice report. I want to add all the costs from the detail section in my footer. I have accomplished this in either the Report footer and/or the page footer, but the problem is that the report footer doesn't go to the bottom of the page, and the page footer doesn't go to just the last page. I have tested a bunch of suggestions that don't seem to work.
1. Print page footer with Report header = NO - only works if your report is two pages or more.
2. Private Sub PageFooterSection_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If Page = Pages Then Me.[TextBoxName].Visible = True Else Me.[TextBoxName].Visible = False End If End Sub
The Page functions worked, but it did not change the results from page to page. If it was a two page report, then the if statement is false and the text box was not visible on page 1, but it also was not visible on page 2.
The query returns the parts used for each job. This could be 1 to many, so I get 1 to many rows returned in the query for each job. There can be a number of jobs to a work schedule (I'll call this WS). Each job is for a particular model. So I bascially have
I have a DB with all my patients and (among other things) all their referral source.
I would like to print a status report of all my patients, grouped by the referral source, and fax them to the appropriate offices. Easily done with the report wizard.
What I need to know is, how do I create one report, but force a new page for each referral source?
