Restricting Updates Of Product Prices

May 28, 2013

I am trying to set up a database to track truck maintenance, repair, and inspection records for a trucking company. Parts are ordered from vendors, and I have forms set up to facilitate the entry of the information regarding those orders. The problematic form is based on a query. In that query (this form and query deals with the purchase details - product, price, extended price), the product ID is gathered from the inventory transaction table, the product name and price are gathered from the product table (I did this so that price would enter automatically).

Of course, when I change the price, it is changed across all related orders, including those that have been saved previously. I know that the problem more than likely stems from having the info pulled from the products table. I'm just at a loss as to any other option to have the price automatically pulled.

Tables :: Same Product Same ID BUT Different Prices

Sep 19, 2014

I'm going to design an access database for an LPGas company. This company sells LPGas and LPGas cylinders.

Suppliers:

1.AlfaCylinder supplies it's cylinders(not the same kinds of cylinder as ME's)
2.MECylinder supplies it's cylinders(not the same kinds of cylinder as Alfa's)
3.PerfectGas Co. supplies it's LPGas.

Products :

This company sells cylinders and fills different kinds of cylinders with LPGas. for example, 11 kilogram LPGas in one kind and 25 kilogram LPGas in another kind and so on. Therefore, products are :

See the attachment

No problem with customers table. There are two kinds of customer. 1. Known customers 2. Unknown (everyday changing) customers. (there is a record for them in customer table named as Uncustomers, that at the end of the day, the sum of sale of this kind entered under this name.)

Problem is : As you see, there are some products with the same ID and same name or same type but different prices. How can I arrange the product table?

Product Sizes And Differing Prices

Jun 20, 2007

Hi,

i am developing a clothing order management database.

I have so far got [order details], [products], [product details] entities.
This is so that products with the same model code can have a selection of colours and sizes which are held in the product details table.

I followed this website which was very helpful: http://www.princeton.edu/~rcurtis/ul...database2.html

The question is now: each size and colour will have a different stock quantity. How do i model this, for example, so when a Small Red t-shirt is added, the small red t-shirts quantity decreases rather than the overall quantity for the model.

any ideas?

Product Price Auto Updates Using Affective Date

Dec 9, 2007

Please find attached a mdb (2000) which includes 2 tables and 2 querys

If you open "QryProductsComboSelections" You will see that some product ID's have duplicate entries.

what I am trying to do is allow for contract pricing updates to be added with an affective date so they will not display until the affective date but also those old contract prices that have a date less than the current affective date will also be hidden thereby always limiting it to one record even if the product only has one pricing entry.

I can do this with a boolean "PriceClosed" but it would only be a last resort as I would like to automate this so it requires no user intervention other than adding the new price for A given date.

I have spent hours playing with this so rather than through the comp out the window Thought I would do the sensible thing and come and ask the experts.

Hope somebody can help as done a search and got loads of unrelated results.

Best wishes

Mick

Update Prices

Jun 28, 2007

I am a beginner Access Programmer, so my understanding at this point is pretty basic, so that could be why I have run up against a wall with this one.

I am trying to create a database that creates Estimates. In the most basic setup, I have a customer table, an estimate table and an item table. The item table would have a description and a price per unit. With those tables I can set up a basic form that creates an estimate for someone. The wall I am referring to is when I ask myself, "how am I going to deal with price increases?" With the current setup, when I change the prices in the item table it will change all previous estimates prices.

How have others dealt with this scenario? I would have a hard time believing this is a rare question. In the real world this is going to happen. Yet I have several access 2007 books and none of them seem to address this. The closest thing I have seen that seems like it might be in the right direction would be some sort of update query.

Any thoughts on this would be great,
James

Access Development Prices

Oct 16, 2005

I recently got asked by a friend to set up a database for him to store his business contacts (so he can do mailshots etc) along with some basic order history. I've come up with the basics of this database (attached). There is still some work to do on it, a bit of tidying up and some reports etc but I need to go and see him show him what I've done and to clarify exactly what reports and stuff he wants.
I'm only doing this in my free time but he has said he'll pay me for my efforts. I don't feel I can really charge an hourly rate though as I'm still only learning the ropes and what might take me several hours might only take an experienced developer an hour or even 10 mins! :o
So I guess what I'm asking, is could those of you who are self-employed, or indeed anyone who has some idea of what the going rates for databases are, take a look at what I've done and give me an estimate of how long it would have taken to put together something similar and how much you would charge for it (either in total or per hour).
I'm also sure that some of what I've done could have been done a lot better, so if anyone has any views on improvements I could make, I'm all ears. :)

Computer Configurator - How To Add Prices Together?

Feb 20, 2006

I am trying to create an Access database that can be used to configure computers for sale in a small pc repair shop.

What i need it to do is have drop down boxes for different parts, each part having a value, and at the end being able to update the total value depending on which parts are selected.

I have tables with different types of CPUs, Motherboards, RAM, etc etc... each table has description and price values ( a couple more for relational stuff but i don't think that is needed to figure this out ) Just to test it out i have a form where i can go through and select the different products, but i am stuck on the adding of values of the different computer parts.

So anyway, i am trying to take prices matched with values from multiple tables, then add the prices all together at the end for a total value, like any of the pc configurators online.

If anyone can help, greatly appreciated, if i make no sense just ask to clarify...

Breakout Query For Prices

Aug 31, 2007

I am trying to write a breakout formula to identify if today's close is greater than the maximum close of the last 20 days. This is what I have so far:

SELECT WZ07.Symbol, WZ07.AlphaDeliveryMonth, DateSerial(Val(Left([ddate],4)),Val(Mid([ddate],5,2)),Val(Right([ddate],2))) AS transdate, WZ07.DClose
FROM WZ07
WHERE (((DateSerial(Val(Left([ddate],4)),Val(Mid([ddate],5,2)),Val(Right([ddate],2)))) Between Date()-28 And Date()-1) AND ((WZ07.DClose)=(select max([WZ07].DClose) from [WZ07])));


If I replace the = symbol with a > symbol near the end will it compare today's close to the max of the date range selected? I thought I had this figured out but apparently not.

I can do a query that will give me the last 20 days using the "Between date()-28 and date()-1 criteria. I can do a separate query for the maximum close using select max([WZ07].DClose) from [WZ07] but when I try to put them together it screws up. I need to have it first do the last 20 days query and then take the maximum close from it, and then compare to see if today's close is greater than that number. Can this all be put together? Thanks for your help.

1 Item And Up To 5 Diffrent Prices,what To Do?

Dec 1, 2004

hey guys,

I'm creating my tables on paper.
What im hopping for is to be able to add a second price in my inventory list that will show up on all the order form between a time periode and if the time periode is empty it takes priority .


Regular prices: 14,99$ (this amount never changes)
price a 4.95$ between 10-10-04 and 15-10-04 (the price of the item will go back to its regular price)
price b 10.99$ no date specified (this becomes the new regular price and take priority on "regular price")
price c 7.99$ no date specified (this becomes the new regular price and take priority on "regular price" and price a)
price d 4.95$ between __-__-__ and 30-12-04 (the price of the item will go back to its regular price,in this case it will be price c)

I figure i need to creat a second table (otherprices) that is linked to inventory list. do i keep a price field in the inventory list or do i make a query. if so im not sure how to aproach neither of them, can someone explain to me witch way to go and what it takes to make it happen, i dont want to tackle this proble when it arrives because then it will be a toal mess.
thank you

Restricting Access To Informatino

Oct 24, 2006

Hi

I have made up an Access database form for our Sickness Administrators to fill in when someone is off ill. I want the form to only show (on the drop down list of names) the people that that particular SA deals with - for example, Jill would enter sickness records for the Democratic, Legal & Personnel section. I am not sure how to go about this:

a) if I have one table with all of the employees names on it, is there a way of restricting Jill from seeing any names other than the ones that she deals with?

b) if I have separate tables for each section, would that be easier? and if so, do I just make a "switchboard" for them to click on the appropriate list?

Thanks!

Restricting Display Of Information

Jan 16, 2007

I have built a database to be used by several users. One of the tables contains some fields which I don't want some of the users to be able to see.

All users log in to the database with their own username and password.

How can I hide the fields to everyone except a specific group of users?

Thanks,

Restricting Records Per Date

Aug 15, 2007

Hi, a newbie needed help here.

I just wanted to ask whether it is possible to restrict records/rows in a table that has the same values (same date to be exact).

For example, I have an order form and wanted to restrict to only 20 orders per day (could be of any date; not restricted to the current date only). Therefore, if more than that, a message box will appear and no more record will be allowed to be saved.

Whether is it possible or not please justify.

Thank you in advance.

Restricting Fields On Import?

Aug 29, 2007

Hey guys-
New here, and fairly new to Access as well (although I can stumble my way around). I am building a database in which I have to import the data on a daily basis (there won't be much, if any, data entry- just manipulating/Queries of the imported data). One of the fields I am importing is a 'category' type field. There's no way to restrict the data entry aspect of it before I import it into my DB- so I have to work with what I got.

The users type in the categories themselves- many all match the same name/spellings, some do not. So I assume I'm going to have a Category table with all the acceptable categories already entered into it. What I need is some way for the ones that don't fit the acceptable Category names to be flagged- once flagged I need to be prompted for each record if I want to ADD the category to the Category Table, or, if I want to match it to an existing category in the category table. If I choose to match it to an existing category, it will always keep that new category name so that queries and whatnot are consistent.

An Example-
The acceptable Category name might be 'Fruits'.
Upon importing the file- there might be entries that match that exactly, or- some might be entered as-

The Fruits
Fruits II
The Fruity Ones

If these three were to be in the import file- I want to be prompted to change the field entry to 'Fruits' or create a new category name, and associate that with the new name.

How would I go about doing this?
Thanks!

Date Range For Prices - How To Handle?

Oct 14, 2004

Here is my problem:

I have a database which we use to track customer orders of products that we provide to agents to sell to their customers. We have to keep track of the end-customer for redemptions/cancellations, and pay commissions to agents based on sales.

So, I have a Customer Table, Product Table, Order Table, and Agent Table. These are all tied together via the Order Table (Each Customer buys a Product from an Agent and this is known as an "Order").

We occasionally change the commission levels to the agents and the cost of the Products. However, these are mostly fixed costs and they apply across the board to all products of a type sold by that Agent. We institute changes as of a particular time period (all products sold after October 1st will cost $, etc.)

My concern is that if I change a price or commission now, it effects the commission and income reports for all time periods prior to that when the price change wasn't in effect. So if the price change takes place in October, I don't want that change to cascade to August orders.

I'm thinking that I need a price table with a date range in it and the ability to associate that with commissions and prices. I'm thinking I may have to further distinguish between prices and commissions, but I'm not sure. I'm sure that this issue has been addressed before (hopefully by someone on this forum :) ) and am looking for advice on setting this up.

Queries :: Available Prices At Certain Date For All Products

Dec 6, 2013

As you know, the prices are, unfortunately, dynamic "objects".

So, I have a table for products:
tblProducts
ID_Product - Autonumber (PK)
ProductName

and a table for prices
tblProductsPrices
ID_ProductPrice - Autonumber (PK)
ID_Product - Number (FK on tblProducts
Price - Double
PriceDate - Date/Time

The problem: I have a certain date. I need to know the available prices at that date for all products.

I have a solution; but, for each product, I apply an external function that use two aggregate functions: DMax and Dlookup.

For my small tables, this isn't a problem but I like to know if it is a better way.

Restricting Certain Data When Opening A Form

Mar 24, 2006

What I have is a database that I am using for 3 different sites; NE, NCA, & SCA. What I want to do is have the form ONLY show information for the specific site that the Leader is a member of. I have a security table that contains the persons name, & site location. For example: John Smith works at the NE site; so when he goes to open a form to add/modify/delete members from his site I want him to only be able to see date for NE from the table. So in the listbox NCA & SCA would be filtered.

How can I go about doing this? The forms Record Source is set to the Security Table. Please help so I can do this without having to create a seperate form for each different location. :)

Restricting Number Of Open Connections

Jun 10, 2005

I want to restrict the number of times each person can open a database, but give them the option to force close the database on another PC, if they have left it with the database still open, prior to allowing them to have full access / functionality of the database on another PC.

In order to achieve this, I need advice on how to automatically record the computername as each person "logs in" to the database and secondly, send a command to close the database / Access on a PC with the stored computername.

Thanks in anticipation.

Restricting Lookup Values In Sub-datasheet

May 12, 2014

I am new to Access and am currently learning it so that I can construct a database of trivia questions.

I have a "Questions" table with question, answer, type, etc. This table is linked to a "Categories" table with a many-to-many relationship using a junction table called "Questions_Categories". The "Categories" table is also linked to a "SubCategories" table with a Categories as the parent and SubCategories as the child. I have attached the database for ease of understanding.

When I enter data into the "Questions" table using datasheet view, I open up a subsheet that shows me the Category and SubCategory fields which have their own lookups.

My problem is the following: I want each category to have its own set of SubCategories. For example, the "Region-Specific" category has "Canada", "London", and "Ontario" as sub categories. However, the movies category should not have any sub categories. The problem is that when I choose Movies in the sub datasheet, the subcategory lookup still shows Canada London and Ontario when I don't want it to show anything. It doesn't make sense to have a Movies category with a London subcategory.
