Is there a way to use a query to sum totals of several fields per record? In the db I have designed, I have 5 seperate fields for estimates from different departments. There is also a field for Total estimates. What I would like to do is have the Total Estimates field autocalculate the total sum of the other 5 estimate fields. Is this possible to do through a query? If so how? If not - is it possible at all?
Thanks!
Hi,
Not sure if this is possible (sounds simple hopefully) but I was wondering if there was a way to sum certain fields in a record on a continuous form.
E.g. Field1 and Field2 in record 1.
Is it something simple like summing columns, i.e. Sum(Field1)?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi,
I am trying to figure out the best way to design a table. The table is going to contain data concerning checks that have been given to a church. Each check could be broken down into 3 different categories; Tithes, Offering, Other. In other words one check for $100 dollars might be Tithes $40.00, Offering $30.00, Other $30.00. I need to be able to enter these three amounts into the record and then have them totaled in another field.
Is it best to do this all in one record or should I have two tables? If I have two tables how do I get one form to enter the break down into one table and the total in another table. Fyi, if I do this in one record I don't want them to have to enter in the total. I want the total that is entered to be calculated by the three previous fields.
Thanks for any help you can be on this.
Hello, I am a newbie access user, so this might be a stupid question, but here it is:
I have a lot of yes/no fields labeled "10/1", "10/3", "10/5", ... (dates)
They are to record attendance on particular days.
I want to make a query that gives me the sum of a student's attendance and I have no idea to go about that. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks!!
I have 2 fields, Accounts, Accounts CMO. I need those two fields to show in the same table in a new field called Total Accounts. I am summing them, but getting irregular results, some are right, and some are 4 times more than they should be? How would you go about doing this, maybe I am missing something.

I have run into this problem with several databases I have created. I have my tables all set to store my information. I create the form to enter the information. I try to create the field to calculate a total and every time I enter the amount in the form, I get '?name' or '#name'.
With this particular database, I am looking to track expenses. Expense categories on the left, dates across the top, amounts in the middle, totals across the bottom for dates and down the right for categories.
If there was a way to attach a document, I would send the expense report. If you want to look at it, let me know and I will send it. It's a small xls file.
Thanks.

Hi all, sorry to bother you all, especially if this has already been answered, but I can't seem to find the solution to it. Assuming that what I've been doing has been correct that is.
I have three (3) tables with the following fields (where PK is primary key);
[tbl Ingred]: IngredID (PK), ProdID_fk, CompCode, IngredName, Weight, Symbol, RP01, RP02, RP03, RP04, RP05, RP06, RP07, RP08, RP09, RP10
[tbl Prod]: ProdID (PK), ProdName, FP, BP, SBU, ProdNotes
[tbl RPCalc]: RPs, RPs_long (PK), Sym, Limit, Sym_1, RP_1, Comp_1, Add, RP_01, RPNotes
[tbl Prod] has a one-to-many relationship with [tbl Ingred]; that is, for one ProdID, there can be many IngredIDs. The tables are designed so that the final user-displayed form is 'user-friendly'.
I've made a qry called [qry Qcalc] used to calculate the the Quotation (Q) of each of the 10 RPs (RP01 - RP10). Which simply for the first one is; QRP01: [Weight]/[tbl RPCalc_1].Limit, where the [tbl Ingred].[RP01] is linked to a corresponding [tbl RPCalc], by the [RPs] field. As for one [RPs] there may be multiple [RPs_long]. The way it is set up is so that the [RPs] and [RPs_long] are mapped correctly, to be used for calculations.
However, I am now stuck with a problem. I need to sum up these QRP values ([QRP01] - [QRP10]), based on (at least?) two conditions. The user can enter in their RPs; e.g. R10, R20, R21 in any of the [RP01] to [RP10]'s, and in any order.
What I need is to be able to obtain a sum of the Q values for each [RPs_long] (e.g. R10, R20, R21), rather than being the sum of the fields [RP01] to [RP10]. Also, each [RPs_long] may or may not be able to be summed up, depending on another field [Add] which has a "Yes" or "No". "Yes" is for it being able to be summed up, and "No" for it not being additive.
So the end result would be; for each [ProdID], there will be multiple [IngredID] where each will have up to ten (10) "RPs" (that being the [RP01] to [RP10] fields). These inputted "RPs" are then related to [tbl RPCalc] to be able to obtain the Q-values. If the Q-Value is not greater or equal to 1 (>= 1), then the sum of the Q-values for each [RPs_long], provided that the [Add] field is "Yes", will then be able to determine what are the final output RPs to be used, i.e. for the sum of the Q-values are greater or equal to 1 (>= 1), that [RPs_long] will be used.
I've been stuck on this for quite some time, and I know that if I change the whole table structure (like having a field for each RPs in the [tbl Ingred]), I might be able to make it much easier for myself. However, by doing so, it will not be able to offer as much flexibility in the calculations, and also, may not make it as 'user-friendly'. Another thought was maybe to create another table with just the [CompCodeID] (based on [tbl Ingred].[CompCode]), [Weight], [RP], but I'm not too sure how this will work either, but I might give it a shot if this current method doesn't work.
I hope that this made sense, as it is all quite complex (and confusing) to me. Any help on this matter will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have a number of fields that hold values (scores - either 0,1 or 2) that need to be summed but in some cases the value is 99 (which is recognised by our stats program as a N/A type of anwer- This occurs when a question is optional and the user hasnt answered it. I did not want to value to be null (since its not like the user didnt answer it because they missed out on it by accident but rather they could not) and it couldnt be 0 either since 0 actually means something different in the context of the questionnaire.Lets say I have Q1 which has a value of 0, Q2 has a value of 1, Q3 has a value of 99 and Q4 has a value of 2I want to get the total of Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4 for a particular entry but if the value of any or all of the questions are 99 I want access to ignore it and just sum the rest of the values i.e. the sum should read 0+1+2+(99)=3 not 102I want to be able to include this sum function in the expression builder if possible since I am using it for a report. Can someone please help?

I am involved in centrally managing a project , a part of which involves employees of certain companies being given a weekly subsidy for study on academic courses. I have successfully set up a table for all the learners and a related table for companies.
Each learner will receive a fixed weekly rate subsidy in the first year, and a lower fixed weekly rate subsidy in the second year. Somebody (not me) will need to check their paychecks to ensure that employees have been paid and all is above board. The learners/employees can start on the programme at any time. I need a way to track this (total claimed amounts, where they're up to etc).
My theoretical solution, is to have a field for each week a learner is on the programme (52 first year, 52 second), and instead of entering a currency amount in the field, the check-person can enter the date they saw the evidence and are happy with it. I thought then if I create a query that searches any dates that fall within the current claim period (eg >01/01/2015, <=Date()), and multiplies field count that fall within those parameters by first/second year subsidy rate if they're in that table. I think my logic is sound, I am just not sure how to write the query/expression, or if it's possible, or if there is a much simpler way to do it.

I have a sales form. The sales form has many Call, Meetings and Emails linked to each sales record. I want to total all the number of calls, meeting and email records related to the sales record to give a total- Touches.I've created 3 queries;

These all work fine however when I combine them to attempt to count the results it doesn't produce the correct results.I have a second query as well (no pun intended).
I am trying to sum together a column that has values in Time. The results displays as a decimal. How can I have the result display as a Time i.e. 1:20 (1 hour 20 minutes).
:confused: Hi everyone,
I have one table that I want to query. It's a basic table that contains:
MYKEY, AMOUNT
1234430, 100
1234435, 200
1234435, 100
1264435, 300
1264430, 200
1154435, 100
1154435, 219
1294430, 983
2010, 845
........ so on and so forth
Now, I simply want to GROUP MyKEY ENDING with 4430 and 4435 into one line and SUM the AMOUNT, thus showing like this:
MYKEY, AMOUNT
1234430and1234435, 100+200+100 --> (123 being the first common group)
1264430and1264435, 300+200
1154435and1154435, 100+219
etc etc.
i tried using simple sum and group by but does NOT work:
SELECT MYKEY, SUM(AMOUNT)
FROM MYTABLE
WHERE MYKEY LIKE ('*4430') OR ('*4435')
GROUP BY MYKEY
It does NOT ROLL-UP the 4430 and 4435 together.

In my tables i have used calculated fields. one of the fields is to "total expenses." In a report, i need to show the sum of all the "total expenses", the filed populates in the report but the cents are missing. for example if the amount is 6080.40 it shows as 6080. how can i get around this? I have tried changing the decimal point value to 2 at which point the value turns to 6080.00 when it should be 6080.40 (i am a beginner at this i am assuming the answer will probably involve c++ or visual basic's, two concepts i am not familiar with.)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a master table which shows all transactions per record (person) over a financial year.
Each record person has a seperate package period over which their spend needs to be measured. Therefore although I have all their transactions for the year, I only want to sum their transactions between their given [start date] and [end date] which are in columns.
I need to be able to create a field which sums all expenditure per record between the start and end dates
Name Start Date End Date Invoice Date Amount
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 1/11/11 £100
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 7/7/11 £200
Matt 15/5/11 15/9/11 12/12/11 £200
In this case I would only want to sum 7/7/11 as this is between the start and end dates
I want to write something like sumif([Invoice Date] is between [start date] and [end date] - not sure where or how exactly
(The start date and end date will always be the same per person)
Is this possible in access?
Hello eveyone . . .
i am attempting to create a VERY complicated query . . . it's sort of confusing:
I recieve data from an outside source and it is up to us to format it for our own analysis . . .
i have fields:
MethodCode..... AccNo .....PatientName.....MR..... TestCode ..... etc, etc
The fields we want to focus on is "AccNo" and "TestCode"
Now i want to filter based on this condition:
If "AccNo" AND "TestCode" BOTH have duplicate data in a record. Show that record only once. Remember. . . "AccNo and TestCode, both these fields have to have duplicate data in a record.
Example:
MethodCode..... AccNo .....PatientName.....MR..... TestCode ..... etc, etc
CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456.....CBCA
CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456.....CBCA
the example above should only display once because of the repeated AccNo and TestCode
Example:
MethodCode..... AccNo .....PatientName.....MR..... TestCode ..... etc, etc
CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456..... CBCA
CAPT.....M566679.....John Blue.....123456..... LIPID
the example above is just fine because the TestCode is not matching

Hi Guys,
Im trying to do something that i dont think is possible, but perhaps i dont know the correct command.
I have a table, which contains costs. the costs are deceided by a circulation. if the circulation is below 10,000, then the cost is A. if its more than 10,000 but less than 20,000, the cost is B.
I have a query that brings back the titles, and thier circulations. what i want to do is use this data to lookup the correct cost. is this poossible?
thanks

i'm going to start this by telling what i am working toward in the end as it is where the problem obviously stems from.
i am trying to create a report which will tell me how many times 'hcapp' is in a table. there are three different fields where 'hcapp' can be placed...i can easily create three different queries which return how many times 'hcapp' is mentioned in one field, but i have yet to figure out how to look through all three fields in one query...is it possible? if not, how can i have a report call all three of these queries and then sum the total?
i've a question that hopefully has a simple answer.
i have a query that returns three different numbers (each in its own column)...anyway, how can i make it sum the number of these three numbers...the best case scenario would be if i could have a fourth column appear in the results of the query with the sum...
it would look something like this
num1 num2 num3 sum
1 2 3 6

Hello,
I'm trying to sum numbers in a query. The table that Im summing from is set up as follows. The 1st column is just an autonumber. The 2nd column is an individuals. The third column is a date. The fourth column is a transaction (Buy or Sell). The fifth column is an amount (in $). and the 6th column is an Account (RRSP or RESP).
I would like to sum all the buys for each individual for each account. However I'm finding this difficult to do. Here is what i have so far. It sums all the 'buys' for the entire table.
SELECT Transactions.[Customer ID], DSum("Amount","Transactions","Transactions.Transaction=1") AS Expr1, Accounts.[Account Type ID]
FROM Transactions INNER JOIN Accounts ON Transactions.[Account ID] = Accounts.[Account ID];
Thanks very much,
