Reports :: Group Data In A Report From Single Table Using Grouping And Sorting
Dec 2, 2014
I'm trying to group data in a report from single table using grouping and sorting and I want the percentile of every record over group total. I'm using a query to fetch data from table, however I'm unable to get percentage of every single record over group total.
I want to display the report as attached image in single report. I'm unable to get data in "Perc" field. It's populating wrong values.
Access 2010. I have a table with the following fields:
- From - To - TypeOfWork (to be chosen from a combo-box) - Activity (text field to be filled in freely)
In a table i have a complete day with times (from -> to), the type of work between those times and the activity performed between those times a bit like this:
FROM TO TYPE OF WORK ACTIVITY 00:00 - 11:00 Welding Welding clamps 11:00 - 13:00 Welding Welding anodes 13:00 - 15:00 Cleaning Cleaning pipes 15:00 - 18:00 Cleaning Cleaning floor
So it should sort on "From", then group by "TypeofWork" and repeat the "From" field(I think...). But I now have tried every combination of sorting and grouping I could think of and nothing works!
I have a table of about 250 items that are sorted based on two fields. I created a query of the table and hide one of the fields because it is only there for sorting purposes to group the data.
For example, I have a "Type" field. In the type field, I differentiate the items with different categories, such as "Materials", "Safety", etc. My next field is "subtype" which assists the "Type" field being sorted properly for my needs. In the "Materials" category, all of the items are either "Fencing", "Plastic", "Wire", or "Miscellaneous". I am sorting the "type" and "subtype" fields in ascending order so that all the "materials" are grouped together, and all of the "fencing, "plastic", etc are grouped together within the materials field.
I am creating a printable report and I do not want the "subtype" field to be on the report, but I need the "subtype" field's sort to be affecting my data so it is grouped properly. I'm having difficulty, is there a way to hide fields in reports?
Ok Second issue: I have a list of companies that each offer 5 different programs. Eash Listing in the query (My report is built on this) has both a column for the definition and a colum with a number idenitfying the amount of people in the program.
What I need is to HIRE someone, but maybe I can do this:
I want to list each company and all 5 programs associated with that company; easy and its done.
Then I want to have a summary at the bottom of the report that goes to each company, takes the 5 programs for maybe 1, maybe 3 or maybe 92 companies, and lists them in order. Order = the top 5 programs for all the different companies. See and it gets complicated because sometimes, a program can be the largest for every company in the report, and then the second program for each company is different for each each company. So I need to arrange the programs in an order. then sort them by size, and them only show the top 5.
PLEASE, if you got through this far of my irrational and illogical brain then maybe you can help
What I wish to achieve is to create a report that groups and sorts without the need of a header section as it is taking up to much space cascading :
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
rather than :
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
---- ---- ---- ---- ----
I basically want it not to cascade but do the exact same thing as it does inside its own header. (We need to dramatically cut down the page amount as a delivery schedule is printed out daily and could do with the page count around 10 rather than 50 ).
How can I change report Sorting and Grouping through code? I tried:
Dim rpt As Report Dim strReportName As String strReportName = "ReportName"
[Code].....
But this did not work. I assume because it is on the Open command for the report. I think I might have to place some Event Procedure in the Group Header - On Format or On Print? However, I can not find the right syntax to do that.
I have a table for gathering interview scores for candidates from multiple reviewers (example below)
Field1 - RankID Field2 - Presentation Score Field3 - Writing Score Field4 - Applicant Name etc.
Each applicant will be interviewed by multiple reviewers. I want a report to display the data is grouped by Applicant name, but sorted by Score.
Applicant2 - average presentationscore = 5 Applicant1 - average presentationscore = 4 Applicant3 - average presentationscore 2
it seems simple enough to group by applicant name and sort by PresentationScore, but this does not work. I have used the grouping and sorting feature in every combination I can think of and it always keeps the Applicant Names in order whether I group first on PresentationScore (which will then give me several entries for same applicant) or not. What am I missing?
I have a database that has all the employees in my company with basic information. I have a auto number set up for each person. I also have on my form a subform with information about the employee's history in the company. I have bin trying for the last couple weeks, to put a button on my form, that will open up the custom report I made for the one employee, in print preview mode. Everything I have tried gives me a error. The main error I get is The database engine could not lock the table "EmployeeT" because it is already in use by another person or process. If I open the report by itself, then I get all my employees. I am looking to just open a single report from the form I am currently looking at.
I have 2 tables. One Named EmployeeT with all the employees basic information. I have a auto number with the field name EmployeeID.
The 2nd table is called IncidentT, which has its own auto number, and records all the problem/incidents with the employee. For example, lates, if the did not show up, or cancelled out of that day, etc. I have the 2 tables sharing the EmployeeID, sharing the relationship. My main form, has a lot of my information and a subform, Like i said. But no matter what I try I can get rid of that error.
The only way I got it to work without the error, is when I go into properties and change the Record Set Type to Snapshot on both the form and subform. But then I can't edit the form or subform anymore.
I have a small database I am building to log and record Calibration Details Of thermometers etc. I have several table that are related, no probs so far.
However I am struggling with forms and reports that use data from the asset table more than once. IE. I have a calibration unit (this is an asset as this also needs calibrated ) that I use to test the thermometers (These Are Assets) but this is also in the same asset table as the thermometers. I need to reference the Calibration unit and the thermometer or whatever item I am testing on the same form or report. I seem to have got round the form problem but i am stuck on the report as access keeps linking to only one item, how do I make it link to 2 items on the same table on the one report.
Is there a way to have an expression in the control source of a text box in a report, that re-starts or is exclusive for every group within the report?
I am trying to create a report grouped by payment date. The problem I'm having is there are 3 different payment date fields on one table and 1 payment date field on another table. I cannot figure out how to get my group expression to pull up the dates from each one of the fields. Do I need to create a new table for each payment type, or is there a way to create a common field "Payment Date" and pull up date from these 3 fields. I have a criteria form which sets beginning and ending dates, but where to assign it. The report is called "Payments by Date" and I need to show PPD (primary payment date), SPD (secondary payment date), etc.
I'm trying to create a report with data from 7 different tables. It's supposed to be an assignment overview for a transfer company (driving people from A to B, dunno how to call it in English). I put assignment and customer details into the page header, which is working out fine so far. But now I want to show transfer details and it's proving to be a bit troublesome.
When creating the assignment, the user can choose whether the transfer goes from/to an address or from/to an airport. Depending on which one he chose the data is stored in different tables. To determine whether it is an outward journey/collection, outward journey/target, return journey/collection or return journey/target, I put a field in each of those tables ("Schritt", its value being either 1, 2, 3 or 4).
To visualize I made screenshot of the tables in relationship view, but since I'm a new member i can't seem to post images, so I'm giving you a pseudo URL...
[abload (dot) de (slash) img (slash) transeren40p1r.png]
Having the "Schritt" value for each step in either one or another table (address(es) or flight data) is making it a bit hard for me to wrap my head around the problem. Is that doable with expressions or is there a way in VBA to solve this problem?
I have a query where I ORDER BY ClientId, MatterId and Transdate. The result of the query is correct. All of the transdates are in ASC order within the Matter.
When I run the report for a MatterId the relative transactions are not sorted on transdate
Can there be something in the report that could be effecting the order of the transactions.
I have a report that sums the failure cost and displays it in weekly increments. The Query that populates this report brings in [Date], [failure cost], and [department]. I need to separate one department out of the total and display it's total separately on the same report. I am using the [Date] field to group it into weekly increments. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm trying to make a report that a untrained user can use to review the relevant data from the database I'm creating. All of the work I've done so far has been directly in the tables . Here's a quick outline of my general data organization:
Basically, I want the user to select a department to view using a combo box or option group (which I'm not sure of how to do in a report). Then, I want to view the employees within that department sorted first by whether or not the Needs_Work check box is selected, and then by how many of their competencies are unchecked.
I have small database in ms access which i am using for invoice creation. When invoice is created i save it as PDF. I would like merge another single Page PDF along with the report as 2nd page so end report is 2 page PDF.
Second how can i get 1 PDF from 2 ms access reports.
I have a database that is strictly for generating and printing work orders. Our supervisors use it to print new work orders on the fly. normally that is fine. I have the Vb to print that specific work order
what I need to create is a VB that would allow other people to create a work order that would email it to the those supervisors. email addresses will always be the same. I just dont want to send the entire report.
I am using the student database template and I have added some tables and made some changes so I am trying to get all of the existing reports to work. The Emergency Contact Report is giving me an invalid sorting and grouping error. I have never even used a report and I have no clue what needs to be fixed.
Working on a report that displays multiple pie charts. Each chart is based on a different query. I cannot pull a single query for all charts due to the criteria for each conflicting with each other. Each query is filtered by Fiscal Year based on what I input into my Fiscal Year Filter form. The command button on the FY Filter Form opens the report, set TempVar to the FY field (the criteria for each query), and closed the FY Filter Form. This works as I want it to.
The problem: I have additional fields I want to show up on the form such as number of completed students (WINGED). This number is based on yet another query where all completed students are counted [WingedCount]. I have tried to write an expression to an unbound field that points at this [WingedCount] field but it does not work. Then, I changed the report's source as the query with the [WingedCount] field. This does work, however this is where I run into an issue
I open my FY Filter Form and type in my criteria and select the open command button. However, now I am asked for the criteria again for each chart on the report.
I need a way to input the criteria only once and have all charts populate as well as my count field.
I have attached a jpeg of my current report and will upload jpegs of the needed output following this post.
I need to build such a report, Unfortunately, I do not know how to use VBA to create each group (grouping by type) had a different header.
The problem becomes bigger that everything must generate queries dynamically cross, the number of columns in a given type may vary depending on the number or the size of the products in which they occur.
