I'm trying to do a lookup between two tables, whereas table A includes the product ID and table B includes the price. Is it possible to create a field in table A with a DLookup function on the product ID to get the product price from table B?
Whenever I try to type in the DLookup function, it does not calculate.
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
Hi all,
I started a new thread, because it is a new subject even though is related to my Price List thread, I hope is OK.
If someone can please take a look at my attached Excel Price List (particulary the factors sheet) and give me an opinion of how my tables should be created.
I cleaned the Price List was too big to attach and it will be easier to be understood, in its entirety is kind of all over the place, exactly why I need to make simpler in Access for another user to update if I am not around.
I am below including what I think the tables should include, but not sure exactly how they should be, please be reminded that I am un unexperienced newbie.

I have 2 tables a project table and a project additions table, they have a relationship of 1 to many. When I run the query using both tables it only gives me the results of the project numbers that match in both fields. I need to have all information from both fields.

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?
OK, here's my delima (my head is spinning)
I have a standard Product table:
tblProducts
ProductID (PK)
ProductName
VendorName
Description
UnitPrice
InStock
Every Product has many Parts, but one Part may go to many Products
I will build this table:
tblProductParts
PartID (PK)
PartName
VendorName
Description
UnitPrice
InStock
How would I relate them together? I figure I need to use a Many to Many, with this table inbetween:
tblProductPartsList
ProductPartsListID (PK)
ProductID (FK to tblProducts)
PartID (FK to tblProductParts)
I feel like I'm missing something, can you let me know what you think???
THANKS!!!
i am very new to access. Logic and method needed in order to create a data base that records weekly orders.
What types of tables do i need?
How can i input more than one product per order?
How do o group the information in a organized way?
Ideally i would like to Input the clients name the week of the order and then all the products etc that are ordered.
Then be able to see in an orders table each client that made an order and a subdatasheet (the small plus in the corner) that once clicked i see all the products that are in that order?
You have a company that sells a small line of very exotic, non-perishable, chemicals to manufacturers.
You source these chemicals from around the world and resell them to the manufacturers.
The chemicals are not only very expensive, but may or may not be required for any given batch of product the manufacturer is producing.
The manufacturer does not know if the chemicals will be required, or not, until the last minute, so must have them immediately available for each batch.
You keep track of the process with a simple database that is built around a "Chemicals" database and a "Transactions" database. Which are linked by [Product Code]
Quite straight forward to this point.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now
You are seeking a way to make these chemicals accessible to manufacturers who cannot afford to buy them, just to have them sit around waiting for the day they are needed.
You set up a system where a manufacturer can purchase an "Option" on the chemicals whereby:
They pay you a certain amount of money for the right to hold the chemicals at their plant for a given period, denoted in weeks.
After the pre-determined period is over they must either:
Return the chemicals to you and you keep the money they paid for the option.
If they used the chemicals, pay you the pre-determined purchase price --you still keep what they paid for the option.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My problem is incorporating the options into the database built around "Chemicals" and "Transactions," e,g,:
(1) The "Chemicals" table has fields such as [Product Code],[Quantity in Stock],[Cost],[Sales Price per Kilo]. The options require a unique set of fields such as [Product Being Optioned], [Expiry Date of Option],[Sales Price per Kilo -If Used],[Weekly Price for Option]
It doesn't seem correct to jam these into the same "Chemicals" table although I could be wrong.
(2) The same is true for the "Transactions" table, i.e., it now identifies the chemicals in each transaction using [Product Code].
To identify an option in a transaction one needs to use [Product Code] and [Expiration Date of Option]
(3) When a chemical is optioned the company has to track the fact that that quantity of it is not available for outright sale until the option expires
(4) A further problem exists even if I have figured out how to structure the tables.
Before selling a chemical one must create a record for that chemical in the "Chemicals" table--not a problem.
Options on the chemicals, however, do not exist until they are sold i.e., instead of using the "Chemicals" table to look up data for each transaction. Each transaction (to sell an option) has to create a record in the table being used to track the options
I got a product table that I want to link with Customer Table.
To relate one to many I have a IDCustomer on my product table that is about 1000 rows.
I can link and all is working.
But in the product table I need a Primary Key that is shorteer in rows (only 15 rows) and access won't let me create such a primary key because it contains null value.
I Need Product ID (as primary key) to relate to another table which I will name Product details.
I have to design a price list table which is currently done in Excel.
The table looks like this :
[Headers]
Product Group | Layers | (this are quantity bands) 0-100 | 101-500 | 501-1000| etc
Test1 | 2 | £10(normal) £9(special)
The quantity band currently is fixed to 5 bands but would need to be flexible. There are also 2 prices for each of the quantity band (normal/special)
At the moment my table design looks like this:
ID
fkSupplierID
fkProductGroupID
txtLayers (value list)
intMinQty
intMaxQty
curNormalPrice
curSpecialPrice
This works quite well with the query to return price based on product group, layer and order qty. However I am not very sure if this is the best way to design this. I am just thinking about maintenance - for example when the supplier puts in a price change or when the quantity band changes. The current format (quantity band) is based on a major supplier but in the future we would like to adopt this for any supplier.
I am attempting to create a database for managing nonconforming product internally.
Different stages will need to be assigned to an individual within the organisation, is it possible to have a lookup value in my table which draws its information from active directory?
All the users are obviously in here and managed already, I dont want to have to create and manage a separate list of users just for my database.
I need to calculate qty with price in a form.

The ProductID1(2,3,4 OR 5) is selected from a list in a form and is sourced from "Products!ProductID"
=DLookUp ("Products!PName","Products", where "ProductID1" = "Products!ProductID")
How do i make this work,
Without the "critera" the lookup returns only the 1st record of "Products!PName" for every transaction even though the ProductID1 differs
How to i get it to show the correct corresponding name to ProductID1??

I need to make an order purchase form like i have customer table and product table, i want to make a form which creates order for a specific customer and I can add as much items as i want and than calculate auto the total price, and an option to make a report for it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working with a database that I downloaded and am trying to modify to fit my needs.
This is an inventory database. The products table contains a description and pricing. I want the description and pricing to populate in the Purchase Order form, so I added Dlookup fields in the Purchase Order form. I was happy.
However, the pricing information is not populating to my Inventory Transactions Table from the Purchase Order form by way of this Dlookup feature, and therefore will not show on my report, and in turn does not show in my Total of my Purchase Order report.
As a work around, I tried creating a calculation in the purchase order report, of =[UnitsOrdered]*[Products.UnitPrice], and the pricing totals show fine on my report, but the subtotal doesn't work.
I was unable to upload my file...so a few notes of info...
There are no queries set up in the database for this report.
I had tried a sorting grouping thing (in the Report) by Subtotal, but now can't get rid of it.
When I show the field list for the report, across the top of the window reads:
SELECT DISTINCTROW Employees.*, Products.*, [Inventory Transactions].*, [Purchase ORders].*, Suppliers.*, nz([Inventory Transact
Looks like it runs out of space

In the attached Word document I have a screen shot showing the fields for the "Membership" table and "Class table." I am working exclusively with tables, no forms.
In the Membership table, I will enter a numeric value in the Class field. In the Tuition field, I want to use a DLOOKUP, which would look to the class column next to it, take that value as a lookup number, then go to the Class table (second screen shot) and locate that lookup number in the ClassID field, find the corresponding value in the Tuition column, then drop that result in the tuition field of the membership table.
Example:
In the Membership table, I enter 7 in the Class field. The tuition field should automatically return $160, because in the Class table, the classID 7 corresponds to a price of $160.
I tried setting up the Tuition field in the membership table as a calculated field, then I entered a DLOOKUP in the expression box and received an error.
Is it possible to do this type of Lookup?
I have a form with subform . I want to calculate purchase quantity with criteria of product and quanties before sale date. If i use with specified date it gives correct result.but if i use field address it ignores date criteria

Sdate is date and it is on main form

i have a small school with number of teachers, every teacher has a specific number of observations in the semester, i need a small project that when i query a bout a teacher, a form appearing with his name and the remaining hours of observation
what i did is i made two tables teacher (id, name, total number of observations in semester) observation( Oid, name of teacher, date and time of observation, remaining observations) -- i dont know if i have to make a counter or what !!--
Now what i need to do is a form when i enter the id of the teacher, it shows automatically the name of the teacher, and the number of remaining observations
How can i join the two tables and show the results ?
a sample Db TEACHER.zip
I have never some across this before but my database keeps throwing a "Too many tables open error" which has taken me a day to get to the bottom of. I believe that the use of a dlookup in one of the queries not cleaning up after itself.
The issue I have now is that even importing the tables into a new database causes this problem as i guess I'm inheriting the same table id issue.
Does anyone know how to clear the table IDs that the dlookup left open ?
Secondly, could anyone suggest a more robust method of looking up one value from another table. Basically I need to look up the USD to GBP rate (one value) for every record in an other table. I cant use a join (trade ccy->fxrate ccy)as there is properties to link on. Ive tried the elookup function I found on the net but performance is still an issue.
Any help is appreciated
Am creating a Product-Sales Database, and I would like the corresponding Sales made in the Sale Table to be automatically deducted or to be reflected in the Product Table. The product table contains all my stock and has a relationship with the Sales Table. The Sale Table does not necessarily include the Stock. How can I create possibly a Sales Form that will be used as an entry point for all the products (stock) sold and automatically register the sold products in the Sales Table and at the same time make the required adjustments in the Products Table.

=DLookUp("[ItemDescription]","MasterData","[BarcodeID] = " & [Forms]![frmMasterData]![Barcode])
I have a from called "TakeOn". The from is based on a table, called "tblTakeOn" with fields ID, Barcode, ItemDescription and SerialNumber.
In the form "Take On" is is a combobox named barcode, that looks up the bacode values from a table called "MasterData".
The "MasterData" table has only 3 fields, ID, Barcode and ItemDescription.
I want to in the "TakeOn" Form to, in the ItemDescription Field, display the ItemDescription from the ItemDescription value in the 'MasterData" table.
Access displays a circular reference error message.
I'm new to access and need to modify an existing database to get a report I want to create. I'm an Excel user and could accomplish what I want to do in seconds using Excel's Lookup functions, so I'm trying to do the same with Access Dlookup.
I have two tables in my database that tracks components in a hardware product. The first table is just a list of hardware units shipped. The second table is a list of various components (and versions thereof) used in each unit. The two tables are linked by a UNIT_ID field. I need to create a report showing each unit and what the various versions of the components are. My difficulty is that the component table is does not have a dedicated field for each component and each unit can be comprised of a different quantity of components. So the tables look something like this:
UNITS TABLE:
ID Customer
1 Joe
2 Bob
3 Bill
COMPONENTS TABLE:
ID Component Revision
1 Main Board A
1 Blue Board B
2 Main Board B
2 Blue Board B
3 Main Board A
3 Red Board C
I want to produce a report that looks like
ID Customer Main Board Blue Board Red Board
1 Joe A B --
2 Bob B B --
3 Bill A -- C
I setup queries to get revisions of each Board and am trying to compile into the full report, but can't figure it out. Right now I'm trying to use Dlookup to lookup data from one of the queries and insert into a larger table. I can lookup a single value fine, but can't figure out how to get Dlookup to give me the Blue Board & Red Board values for each of the system ID numbers in a master query (which would be a snap in Excel).
I'm trying to step from Excel to Access and I have some issues to translate functions that I used in Excel to Access.This is how it looks in Excel.And I have issues to translate the following function in Excel to Access.
=IF(AND(I6=0),"Done",K6-A$4)
A$4 is related to cell where it states the function =now() Basically what I want is to calculate in the tablecolumn is the following.In the column "Days remaining" I want the remaining days from "date to pay" and today. If the amount states "0" then the outcome must be "done".
We are collecting data from client files that have multiple dates (start_date, event1_date, event2_date, end_date.) For client protection purposes, we are absolutely not allowed to leave the facility with the actual dates. However, we want to know how many days have passed between each event. I thought about having the data collectors enter each date, have a calculated field store the time between dates, and then have the actual dates cleared when the record is saved or when the person moves to the next record.
