I have a problem with figuring out how to implement what I call “Paid In Advance”. If a customer pays 4, 5, 6, or 12 months in advance, I for some reason can’t think of how to set this up with tables, queries, forms, and reports. The example that closely matches my db is “Order Entry” from access sample db’s.
Tables are as follows:
tblCustomerDetail
tblCustomerHistory
tblPayments
For every customer (tblCustomerDetail) there are multiple service records (tblCustomerHistory) and for every service record there are or can be multiple payments (tblPayments) for that one service record.
Just like in “Order Entry” where Customers have multiple Orders and then one or many Payments for that one Order. (Pretend that Order Details is in the Orders table.)
The problem that I’m having is trying to come up with a way to assign the “Paid In Advance” money to the customers account without assigning it to a service record or payment. I can’t assign it to a service record because it hasn’t been serviced yet. And I can’t assign it to a payment because the service record generates a new record in the tblPayments when a new service record is entered, and besides that wouldn’t work because the “Paid In Advance” money would only be applied to that one service record.
I hope everyone is following what I’m saying.
If anyone has any clue as to what I am trying to do, please feel free to help me.
As always any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
P.S. If anyone knows where there is a sample db of what I am trying to do, I would be grateful if you could post the link in your reply.
how can i have the letters PAID in red running accross a form if the balance is '0'?????i been thinking about it and cant even come up with any logic other thanhaving a invisible "PAID" that if the balance >0 then make visible? does that make any sense?and how would i code it?Thanks!
I would like to create a query which will be used to create a payment reminder report.
The two fields I would most like to focus on are these ones: Field | Table | Criteria | DateRequired | tblOrders | =Date() + 2 (?) Paid | tblOrders | False (?)
Basically if the order has not been paid by two days before I would like to be able to create a letter to each customer who needs reminding by the use of a report.
Is criteria the correct plac to put these bits? Is =Date() + 2 going to be two days after the current date? Is False the correct thing to place if I want to show only customers that have not paid (the check box is not checked)
I have a very generic form I use to track all my To Do things on a daily basis. The form has the following fields: fldComplete, fldDueDate, and fldSubject.
The fldComplete is a check box and the fldDueDate is of course a date data type.
What I would like to create is a query that once you click the fldComplete signifying that the task is complete:
1. The record is removed from the form.
2. The fldDueDate advances either annually, monthly, quarterly etc. which automatically goes to the end of the form in sequential order.
I have been struggling with this one a while now and need to throw this open as im Stuck!
i have a database of domain names that I currently own however i need to be able to report on the TLD (eg .co.uk .com. me.uk) part of the domain. in the database the field domain is held in the format "imstuck.co.uk" i need a query that will strip the domain part and just return the TLD in a seprate field.
I have used numvers of functions but cant seem to get the right format for it to work
I have list of member in the member table, every month each member makes a payment (monthly fee) as they do they get entered into the fee table how do I find out the members who have not been entered into the fee table (which will show they have not paid )
I need a query to pick the bones out of sales transactional data like this...
Code: CustomerName Currency A Smith GBP A Smith USD B Jones GBP B Jones GBP T Brown GBP T Brown AUD C Wong GBP C Wong GBP S Giles USD S Giles USD
From the above data, only A Smith & T Brown ...have made purchases in more than one (different) currency. How on earth do I trap that with a query? (or will it need a macro?)
If so, the table is called sales & the columns are as per the data above (CustomerName & Currency)...
"This query should prompt the user to enter two dates and than calculate the total amount paid for all invoices in the Amount field between those two dates (inclusive)."
Query is based on table Invoices.
I have created the query and dates part works fine. However,when I run Sum for the Amount field, instead of total amount query displays amount of each invoice between those dates. How to get just Total (amount of each invoice added up)?
Hello everyone, if anybody could help me I'd deeply appreciate it.
Booking ID = the time when it is booked over the phone Hiring ID = the time when the event is to be held
Basically I have to make some booking dates, and use January and February 2006 as test data. My only dilemma is it says that the booking dates must not be booked more than 8 weeks before the hiring, and at least 1 week before it. So if someone wanted to the hiring for 01/01/06, then they wouldn't be able to book before 01/11/05, but before 25/12/05. Can anybody help me? Thanks. I need it so that whatever the hiring date is, the booking date has to be no more than 8 weeks in advance, but 1 week before the hiring.
Private Sub Form_Load() Dim rs As Recordset Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("select * from tblpatient, dbOpenDynaset) If Not (rs.BOF And rs.EOF) Then rs.MoveFirst Do While Not rs.EOF ' do stuff rs.MoveNext Loop rs.Close Set rs = Nothing End If End Sub
I have watched it step through on debug and it does everything right for the first record, but it seems to come back to the same record.
AutoID : AutoNumber Name: Text RecordID: Number "Long Integer"
I have created a form that aytomatically starts a new record and I have also placed the following Code in the form's module:
Private Sub Form_Current() ' Comments: If this is the first entry then set the RequestID to 1, ' else find the maximum RequestID and add 1 to it.
If Not IsNull(DMax("[RequestID]", "tblMain")) Then Me.RequestID = DMax("[RequestID]", "tblMain") + 1 Else Me.RequestID = 1 End If
End Sub
I have saved the form as a Data Access page but the code doesn't work and I couldn't find a code simialr to that which I can use in my html page?! Maybe I can use ADO to open a recordset ans search for the maximum value but I don't know the exact code and how to write the result back to the recordID field in the html page?
I am creating a crosstab query in VBA to report on claims on a paid and incurred basis. I would like the query to have 13 columns - one for each month of the current year and one for all claims paid prior to January of the current year.
Is there a way to lump all data with a date less than Jan 1 into a single field while retaining the monthly detail for the current year?
All of the data is coming from a single table. Sample code below functions, but provides a column for every month a claim was incurred.

Not sure if this is actually done with a query (hell, im not sure if it can be done) as my Access knowledge is limited but I've got a list of Patient Appointment Dates and I need to calculate a list of 'Next Appointment' dates that are six months on from the appointment dates not including saturdays and sundays (as the health center is closed those days)
BTW this is for coursework, I don't really work for a health center :S
edit: I seem to have put this in the tables forum, not the queries forum. Apologies for that, I'm not an Idiot, Honest!
I rent out a property , on the rental statement I have a field [Datepaid], [RentpaidFrom] and [rentpaidTo]. I would to have a field that can calculate the rent that is paid to show if the rent is in arrears or in Advance. I guess the code would be something like (datediff ???? etc) but i have no idea what it should be. the calculation should appear on the query as i.e.2 days in arrears or 12 days in advance etc
ok I work a lot on databases but have recently been asked to set up an access database for my team. We are a marketing team within a large insurance company and need a small access database for MI and project management.
I have made a start on this and going well so far but there are some things I need it to do that I dont know how :P
Ive never messed about with Acess before so bare with me :P ok so this is what im looking for, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have set up various tables for look up wizards for some of the menus on another table I designed for the raw data entry.
I need two tables, two forms - one table for very basic generic data such as
- Job Number - Description - Business Unit - Owner - Due Date - Completion date
I then need to drill down into this to add more information, so its basically two tables on top of each other with co-dependencies.
So for example one of my team enter a new project at the very basic lvl, they have a job number, they know what business unit it is for and they know the date its due, as time goes by and work is done on the project I want them to be able to click on a button that takes them to another form where they can enter information that is linked to the original information.
So they search for job number 00000 and come up with the above data on the first form, I want them to then click on 'Project Information' button and be taken to another form that has a lot more stuff on there, like a description, complications, notes, links to documents etc etc. I tried to do this linking two tables together but it doesnt work as the two forms/tables are not co dependend and are irrespective of each other.
Does this make any sense ? and does anyone know how I might make this work ? Please let me know if I am not clear and I will try to explain as best I can
I would also like to change the form 'theme' aswell and have my companies logo transparent behind the data fields etc, anyone know how to do that as I only have the option to use the standard themes.
Is it possible to set which VBA reference boxes are ticked each time a database is loaded?
A problem is created when a person amending the database to the person using it has different setups and so some of the references show as "missing" and so compile errors show on loading.
I made on option box on a form called Status. The 2 radio buttons are marked Open = 1 and Closed = 2. Is it possible to open a query based on what the user selects. In the query I want open to stand for Is Null and closed would be Is Not Null. I know this sounds unusual but it works in the query they way I want it to. Is this possible? Thanks...
I tried various searched and came up empty handed.
I have a user that is using a database that is on a network. When she enters records using her computer and exists the database, they don't save. If she goes back in, they aren't there. However, if she uses another computer, they save.
I can assume that it's not user error because it's the same user on two different computers.
I am confusing myself more and more as i read on normalization and queries and everything else. I am trying to create a database for parts that our company sells and am having trouble deciding how to lay out the tables. I figure I should use the part number for the primary key as it will not repeat. from there though, i have a problem, each type of part has different fields nessesscary to decribe its attributes. for example, one part number may be for a box and its describing fields might be brand, width, length,load rating, and height. but another part number might be for a circuit breaker which would have completley different describing fields like brand, amperage rating, voltage rating, connection type, and trip type. Should i create 1 table for everything even though many fields would be blank depending on which type of item it was or should i create seperate table for each type of item with only the required fields to decribe that item?
i have a subform within a form. when the form is loaded, i would like the subform to automatically be ready for a new record instead of shown the last record entered. i have tried various macros ( not VB ) but to no avail. the form shows the persons info and needs you to add a certain piece of info. this would be the only reason for the form.
how would i go about setting focus on a tab control? i have a tab control on a form with 6 tab pages. i am on page 4 ( bank ) and i have a button to add a bank account. this opens up the add form and i add the account. i then requery the form and the tab goes back to page 1. how do i set the focus back to the previous opened tab?
i have having such trouble setting up some tables in a new db, and am wondering if someone could give me some tips as I really don't know what I'm doing (I am new to this).
I have one main table, called Client Information. The PK is CaseNumber. I also have 11 other tables. The PK in each of these is called things like CasedetailsID, witnessinfoID, etc. Each of these tables contains the CaseNumber field (supposed to be from the Client Information table). The Client Information table contains the PK from each of the other tables.
The way I have the relationships set up at the moment is that the Client Information Table is linked to each of the other tables via the fields called casedetailsID, witnessinfoID, casetypeID, etc. The relationships are all one to many (the 'many' side being on the Client Info table, the 'one' side being on the related tables). There is obviously something incorrect about the way I have the tables set up, however, as when I try to enter data into the form, although the data gets stored in the individual tables, none of my queries or reports seem to be working (ie, I try to run a report, but it doesn't show any data).
any tips or advice regarding a good way to go about setting up tables and relationships would be very much appreciated.
