Reports :: Report Is Not Returning Expected Averages
May 9, 2013
My database is set up to track call evaluations with 4 fields for number data (S, A/C, C/E and B) each of these have a possible point total. I also have a percentage field to track out of total possible points.When I run my query I get a list of each of the totals for each of the evaluations with the associates names (as expected).I take that query and try to run a report wizard to give me an average socre for each associate. and the system returns averages of 0 or an odd number that does not make sense.when I use the =Avg([fieldname]) process I get an accurate average of the total but can not get it to do a "subtotal" for each associate.
running access 2000. I have a query that I selected to return the Top 1 record sorted descending on the date so it would pick the most recent entry. I did it by selecting Top 5 from the drop down box in query design mode and then changed the 5 to a 1 using SQL View from qry design.
SELECT TOP 1 Class.CourseID, User.UserName, Class.TrainerID, Class.ClassLocationID, Class.ElapsedTime, Class.ClassDate, Class.Comments FROM [User] INNER JOIN Class ON User.UserID = Class.UserID ORDER BY Class.ClassDate DESC;
It still gives me as many records as are entered on the system. How can I get JUST the most recent record entry?
O.k. I have a query working, and it's calculating perfectly and I'm reporting on it fine. However I noticed that when I run the query it doesn't populate the equation for all the results. Let me explain further.
I have a main form for tracking company information, and a sub form that tracks departments for that company and waste breakdown information. We take measurements for the company in two ways. 1 - a total weight for the day, and 2 - we weigh out categories of waste (within the sub form that tracks the department stuff)..we then calculate what percentage of the daily waste a specific category is. This calculation is done in a query, and works fine for the first department of every company, however when it moves to the next department for the same company, all I get is #Error in the field. eg./
Company "X" Total Daily Weight = 750 Kilograms Department "Shipping" Category - Plastic Bottles - 20 Kilograms
I then have a query that calculates what % 20 Kilograms is of 750, then a report based on the query. This works fine; However in my report I look at the next department, with the exact same informaton as above...I see #Error returned in the field.:confused:
Does all of that make sense?? Is there a way to make sure my query calculation flows through all of the departments??
I am designing queries to return averages for quality test data.
I have this query that functions as I want it too [URL] .....
It returns the averages of all the values received for different tests for a lot number (the lot number criteria should be filled out as well)
When I want the query to be more specific and average only certain box numbers in the lot (that start with the prefix PB") the query does not return an average for box numbers starting with PB but splits them up, showing an average for PB1, PB2 instead of combining the data for those boxes into a single unified average ...
I'm running a query from two related tables in the database.the table relationships and the query design. Instead of doing what I want it to do/what I think I'm asking it to - which is show the sum total number of weeks on the program for each student - it shows me the number of weeks for that student just for that claim, not the total for the student overall. I've added some 'dummy data' (2 records in the claim table relating to 1 student), and the query then returns the student twice in the results.
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
Ive been pondering on this problem for far to long now so decided it was time to ask here !
I would like to return (based on a query) some records that would populate a report. I can set the source of the report as the query but my issue is that I need to actually have some code prior to report population.
EG if they have two products I want to list them product1/ product2 and as far as I know this isnt possible when you just set the source for the report...
The data is coming from SQL server so I have the option of a stored procedure but from trsting that seems to make things even more confusing.
Any help appreciated as Ive been stuck on this for far too long !!
I have a database containing values in 16 fields. the fields are filled in over a period of three years. I would like to be able to calculate the average of the last four values entered, regardless of when in the cycle the value is required. I have tryed to use quereies but connot find away to assign the four fields to the expression so that it is the last four values and if four don't exist, avearage what values there are.
In my database, I have clients and client hours. I need to calculate average client hours. My total client hours expression is: TTotals: Sum((Nz([SessionHoursCompleted])+Nz([OptionalHoursCompleted]))). I need to divide this number by the number of clients. Any suggestions ie sum of client number, sum of clients, count of clients. I've tried these and the results are incorrect.
I have been an MS Excel man all along my career and I am a novice in MS Access.I have created a table, [Initial Customer Approval] which records data from a Form, [Initial Customer Approval]. Once the data is entered in the Form, I need to do some calculations based on the data entered in some of the fields in the form.I created 6 different queries for the six possible values in those fields. now for each of those queries I created respective reports.I placed a Print command button in the Form.
1. When I press the Print button it should open the report for the current record in the Form. (Currently It Opens all the reports simulatneously, with only one relevant report containing the current record; other opened reports being blank.)
2. If user presses the Print button before pressing Save button then system should prompt user.
Here is the code (Please note [reference number] is the unique ID generated for each record entered in the tabe through form):
Private bSaveClicked As Boolean Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) If Not bSaveClicked Then MsgBox "You are trying to navigate away from the active record. Please either save your changes, or press ESC to cancel your changes.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation Cancel = True
I am trying to calculate the average patients age from 2671 records using this SQL:
SELECT tbl_Customer_Details.DOB, CalcAge([DOB]) AS Age, DAvg("[Age]","qryAvgAge") AS Average FROM tbl_Customer_Details GROUP BY tbl_Customer_Details.DOB, CalcAge([DOB]);
why am I getting the result:
68.1131066106
I would have thought that it would have been 68 a whole number, has anyone got any suggestions why this should be.
Now there will be many patterns, the above however only contains one (called 1). Now what i need is the average Depth, Subdrill, Burden, Spacing, bcm/h. In MS Excel I would have following:
Average BCM per hole = Sum of BCM / Sum of Holes
How to do this in Access? Then just to make it more difficult I want to have the average BCM for each different pattern.
once again I have a problem for which I am looking for some hints...
I still have one table, called tblTransactions, which contains security market transactions. For each buy and sell order, respectively it contains one data set with columns Date, Ticker (i.e. the unique identifier of each security), Quantity (positive for buy, negative for sell orders) and Price (at which the trade was executed).
The following code gives me all stocks, which are no longer part of the portfolio since they have been sold out completely for any arbitrarily chosen date (here 1/30/07) together with the date, on which the last position in a certain stock (identified by the ticker) were sold:
SELECT T.Ticker, max(T.Date) AS SellDate FROM tblTransactions AS T WHERE T.Date<=#1/30/2007# GROUP BY T.Ticker HAVING sum(T.Qty) =0 ORDER BY T.Ticker;
Now it becomes complicated: What I am looking for is a sub-query, which I want to add to the code above and which gives me the weighted average price at which the stocks were bought and sold, respectively if there have been more than one buy or sell transaction.
That is, for the following sample data of tblTransactions...
My database has 8 clients. During a sample date range, between 1/1/05 and 1/1/11, they worked a total of 348 hours. I need to query them for hours divided by client by date range. 3 clients, for instance, worked a total of 162 in the sample date range but the query is dividing the 162 hours worked by all 8 clients. I need it to divide the hours in this case by 3. Needless to say, these numbers will change when a different date range is inputted but if the expressions are correct... Currently, to calculate this number I am using this expression : Averages: Sum((Nz([SessionHoursCompleted])+Nz([OptionalHoursCompleted])))/DCount("IDOC","spise clients_OLD_OLD"). A copy of the query 'Current Average/Total' is attached.
I am trying to create a P&L statement in access. I know what I want to come out at the end. I am just starting to play with access and having trouble getting what I want to come out of it.
On the sales side I have a query that gathers all the revenue sources and calculates a total for each date. I then use a second query to just take out the data I want for the P&L report. I created a sub-report that displays the data I want. I use the grouping and grand total features to get the total into the report footer. So far so good.
On the expense side I created a form of a query to manage the one to many relationship to capture the data for expenses (one purchase with many line items). I created a query based of this query to get the relevant data for my expense sub-report. I created the sub-report and got everything looking and calculating the way I want it to. I use the same grouping and grand total features to display the data in the report footer. Still good.
I created a new main parent report with the two sub-reports (sales & expenses) on it and even was able to pull the totals from the sub-reports into the main (so currently the subtotals of the two sub-reports are displayed twice). Now when I try to use the textboxes I used to pull the sub-report totals into the main report to perform additional calculations (sales - expenses) I get #error. I have tried different things and gotten ?name.
Control source for the two textbox controls on the main that display correctly, but don't let me do any further calculations.
=[rptP&LExpensesOverview]![AccessTotalsAmount]
=[rptP&LSalesOverview]![AccessTotalsTotal Sales]
To do the subtraction I have tried using the references above, as well as just using the names of the unbound text boxes in the report that bring the totals into the main report.
As a work around, I tried to build one query with all the data from sales and expenses, but can't "filter" based on date and get the data I want in the query results because the two sets of data are not necessarily related. I either get a long list of records, or no records (I am currently only playing with about 5 days of data).
I have a table containing about 120 records of 40 fields containing integer values. The values are 0 (for 'no experience'), 1 - 5 (for evaluation of experience) and 9 (for question not answered). I would like to generate a row of averages for the 40 columns.
Access includes the '0's when using the Avg function. (So 1,0,3,0,1,4 yields 1.5 (1+0+3+0+1+4 / 6) rather than the accurate 2.25 (1+0+3+1+4 / 4)). I can tackle this in two ways: I either convert all zero's to NULLs, as Access will not count NULL in an Avg function call, or I can do each column in a seperate query using a WHERE clause. I also have the problem of screening out the 9's. I'm reluctant to create 40 queries and then another to amalgamate the results as this seems a very silly way to solve this problem. I cannot convert both the zeroes AND the 9's to NULL as to do so would lose valuable data.
Can anyone suggest how I can obtain a full row of averages for the 40 fields, ignoring 0's and 9's?
Im in need of some help with a query that i am trying to set up. I have a table with data shown roughly below. And need to extract the average [call length] for each heading of [Call type] on a given date.
Ie. The query will be run and the date can be inputted. It would the display each category only once and the average of that category.
The aim of what I am doing is to create a monthly statement to give to our intermediaries that shows the commission they will receive each month for the deals they have referred. I have managed to create this report, HOWEVER I can't figure out how to filter out which month I need, so I a report for Jan, Feb Mar etc... The idea is that at the end of each month I need to run the report so only the latest month shows...
I've done this once entirely by accident and can't seem to duplicate it...
I have a report. It has the following:
Report Header: Logo and title Department Header Supervisor Header Group Header Detail Department Footer: Totals Report Footer: Overall Totals for all departments
Here's my question. I have combo boxes on my main form that filter this report. The combo boxes are referred to by the query that runs the report. How do I get proper unfiltered overall totals in my report footer?
I have a report that displays incidents, their details, consequences and a photo. Among the details is a severity rating high medium or low, I have been asked to make the report shorten the records which have been given a low severity (because it takes up as much space as the more important/severe ones).
The only method I can think of is to use the onformat event, to shrink and make invisible all the fields that I don't want to see if the severity field shows 'low'.
Is there a way to calculate three different rolling averages in one query?
I just inherited a database where someone is using three queries to capture the same information only with different time frames. They were calculating a rolling three month average, six month average, and twelve month average. I would like to combine these queries into one to reduce time spent running reports from the database. All three queries are based on one table. One of the columns in that table is called "Month Start Date". That field shows the first day of the month when a call was entered. I can get the query to tell me the first month in the three month period and the first month in the six month period, but I can't get it to calculate the averages of the calls that fall in those time frames. Here is the SQL for the query I have now. When I try to run this, I get the error message that my formula is not part of an aggregate function.
Code: SELECT DISTINCT DateAdd('m','-2',(Max([Month Start Date]))) AS ThreeMonthStartDate, DateAdd('m','-5',(Max([Month Start Date]))) AS SixMonthStartDate, Max([Month Start Date]) AS MaxStartDate, IIf([Month Start Date] Between [ThreeMonthStartDate] And [MaxStartDate],Avg([All Call Rate]),' ') AS ThreeMonthAverageCallRate, LIST_WITH_TNC.Device, LIST_WITH_TNC.Model, LIST_WITH_TNC.[Item Num] FROM LIST_WITH_TNC;
I need to create a query where in the end, I will have four rows of data based on based on two combinations of WaterSourceType and Crop.
I need the query to bring back the results of the average Top N (lets say Top 10%) for each combination.
I have tried this every which way and I can't seem to get it grouped like I want it. I NEED to have four distinct rows with the average of the ProfitPerBushel for each grouping.
Basically, what this does is show me the average profitablity of the top 10% in each grouping.
