i have created a Union sql Table View, that i have connected to in access. Its a list from 5 different companines of Supplier accounts. I need to create an autonumber for this table? Not sure if this may be more SQL based than access
SELECT PLSupplierAccountID AS AccountID, SupplierAccountNumber AS AccountNumber, SupplierAccountName AS AccountName, 'RWL' AS Company
FROM Roth.dbo.PLSupplierAccount
UNION ALL
SELECT PLSupplierAccountID AS AccountID, SupplierAccountNumber AS AccountNumber, SupplierAccountName AS AccountName, 'FAH' AS Company
FROM FAH.dbo.PLSupplierAccount
UNION ALL
I am having a table for invoicing and vouchers, and I need to have two fields that will have auto incremental numbers. How I can have two fields in the same table with autonumbers and how can I get one of them to start from a different value.
Eg. Record 1 - [inv No] 1 [Vno] 0005 Record 2 - [Inv No] 2 [Vno] 0006
Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.
I would like to know if there is any procedure to restrict/stop auto number increment for certain number of record count (say 50), then increment by 1 for next 50 records.
As part of a larger multi-user system there is a time recording part with a simple table called tblTime with an autonumber field. Today at 11:45 users started reporting receiving a 3022 error. On looking at the table I noticed that if I tried to manually add a record then the ID field number inserted automatically was not the next number in sequence, but one that already existed, hence the error.
Using Access 2007..I have a table where the RecordID is an autonumber, and PK.To set this table up I have a load routine, (becuase I have done this multiple times for testing and further deveopment and I compact and repair the DB prior to loading) - the 690 records are correct numerically and autonumbered.This table has transactional data where existing records are updated and new records are appended.
I found the autonumber was not incrementally increasing - so no reseed the auto number (using ALTER TABLE 3IWSPLans ALTER COLUMN RecordID COUNTER (1000,1)) prior to starting the transactions.
New transactions will append correctly, up untill I amend a existing record (using a delete and append query via a staging table) - then the autonumber tries to reuse a number already in the table and because its not unique it errors.why the auto-number is not incrementally increasing correctly
Need to have a command button at form.. what i need to do is is saving a record through command button one time so produce same id for all parts like;
if i am having a field as parts and id now if i put parts as;
Parts ID
Wheel Tyre Rim
so at the time of button click (command button) the id number to be issued as same as 1 for all three parts, when adding more parts after few minutes or after the click then after addition of next parts the id should be 2 for all, means what i need is to have id number as respect of button click but once click then 1, then after =2 and so on..
When I first was making my database I used all auto numbers for PK's. But then I read an article or two saying that you really don't need to do that if you don't have to (actually, the article said "don't use autonumber if you want anyone to understand your database). I have a few tables (most employee experience type tables) where I just use the word as the PK and there is no auto number in the table at all.I continue to build my database?
There is a autonumber column in one table Order.Everyday I need delete records in Order and then append records into it.Doing so, autonumber keeps on increasing.Is there any way to reset Autonumber from 0 after deleting records?
Is there a way I can format AutoNumber for a primary key, for example, have the first ID start as C001 then for the next entry Access will automatically go to C002, and so on and so forth?
I have a table which will be completely emptied and refilled. The table has a field autonumbered it is also the primary key. When the table is refilled I want this field to start from 1. How can I do that. Yes some people will say this subject has been discussed search for it. But here the issue is somewhat different we have an existing field and I do not want to compact the database each time the procedure runs.
I am creating a Access Data Base for Product Complaint. I have created several tables that share an auto complaint number (Primary Key). How do I make that auto assign? Below is the format of my Complaint number;
A Complaint Number is assigned using the format: PCYYMMXXX Where: PC = Prefix indicating Product Complaint YY = Last two digits of the year when complaint originated MM = Two digits for the month when complaint originated XXX = Sequential number starting at 001 for each year
I am having is that the auto-number value on his machine is different than on mine so anytime I try to add data in testing, it tries to create a primary key value that already exists in the table.Can I set the auto-number "counter" on my computer to a chosen value so I don't have these issues?
Started a new thread: Rebuilt database and still working with auto number for multi user form. The code I have works for single user but not multi user. Also if someone opens the form and closes without adding anything to the form the number is used with blank record.
This is what I have thus far:
Private Sub Form_Current() Me.[PO] = Nz(DMax("[PO]", "tblPurchaseOrder"), 0) + 1 End Sub
I need some kind of function (I been told) that generates 3 different alphanumeric autonumbers in the same field when adding a new record, starting such field from A-1, B-1 and C-1 to infinite.Because the record gets inserted in the table with an append query and not manually through a form, I believe the function should be placed in the Default Value setting of the field.
I am trying to construct a system in access where I can have a user type in a part number, revision of a part, job number, serial number quantity, and generate a serial number based on the quantity that they need.
I am getting hung up on even how to construct the tables effectively to accomplish this, let alone the forms, queries, etc.
The numbers have to be in the following form. XXXX-XXXX
For an example:
I have part ABC and I need 5 serial numbers.
I need to be able to create a batch of serial numbers automagically that reads like:
9001-0001 9001-0002 9001-0003 9001-0004 9001-0005
Then for the next part XYZ I need 3 serial numbers. It would be constructed like this:
9002-0001 9002-0002 9002-0003
With the goal of eventually being able to search a part number and revision, or a job number and return all serial numbers assigned to that.
I have a few questions about tables and forms joining, and auto-population of data.
If I join all 8 of my tables one to one to one to one to one, is that possible? That is my first question.
Secondly: If I have my RSN number that I'm using to track each record, is it possible that if I type in the number on a different form, and two of the fields are similar on every form that they will auto populate since the tables are joined? And if they're filled out in one form, they should know that these were the fields we said were attached to this number it'll just appear? Is that a real thing?
Not to sure if I am doing the table structure correctly as you may come up with an alternative.
I have an [Pre-Order] table, which is linked to an [Order Details], table. A product grp is assigned to each Pre-Order. One Order can have many colours. So what I need is to be able to have an Auto Number generated sequentially depending on what the product grp is.
So for example, I order some shirts, in three colours.
Shirt Product Grp is P
The start of the barcode is 175
Style number is the next section of the barcode which needs to be sequential generated.
so 175 0001 175 0002 etc
Yes this is easy with an AutoNumber, my problem is that my next order could be ties.
Product grp J
The start of the barcode is 145, i need the autonumber to start from 0001 not start from where the previous order ( in this example Shirt above )
so
145 0001 145 0002
do i have to have a separate table for each product grp, ( there are 26 Product grps )
I have an Access2007/SQL Server 2012 system with 20 users for an insurance company. The company does most of its business via a network of vehicle dealers around the country. If someone comes in to buy a motorcycle, boat, or recreational vehicle at a dealership they need insurance to take it home, and our dealers send the quotes to us.
The dealers, in turn, receive payment from us each month for their efforts. Some are paid a % commission on the premium, some are paid for each quote they send regardless of whether the policy actually sells or not, and some are paid a set amount per sold policy. (Yes, that is relevant information!)
We already have reports that tally the amounts due each dealer based on their payment scheme, but last month our bookkeeper had to write about 650 checks manually because the check writing is not automated. She'd look at the report, and then enter name, address, and amount (in digits and words) into Quick Books and print the checks from there, a horribly tedious process. I've been asked to print the checks from Access. Basically one click would print all 650 checks.
I've opted to use a Make Table query to move the commissioned dealers amounts to a single location, and then to run two append queries to add the records from those paid per quote and those paid per policy. At the end of the day, one table contains all the information necessary to print the checks...except one.
The check number.
I need a way to sequentially number each record in the new table with a user generated starting point, the first check number.
By the way, the check blanks are on standard letter sized paper, three to a page, with tear-off perforations to separate them, in case that information has any relevance.
I think the best way to accomplish this is from the report itself. I've created a blank field on each record for the check number, and what seems most logical is that the sequential number is generated on print and written back to the table, rather than just generating all the numbers at once. That way, should print ever be interrupted, it will be easy to take up where we left off.
Adding a second auto number field to current table and auto numbering current entries?
I need to combine some records from the same order number that currently have detailed names. I'm trying to simplify them, but I can't because it creates duplicate records.
I have a table (tblContact) with an auto number key field that is numbered sequentially (1-8) there are no deletions, each new record is appended.I wrote a simple FindFirst line to locate a record that is the first record in the table. The FindFirst failed to find the record.So, I wrote a Do Until Loop that cycles through each record looking for the record that I want to find (the first record with key field 1).
Do Until rstContact.EOF Debug.Print "ContactID: " & rstContact.Fields("ContactID") Debug.Print "CEmployerID: " & rstContact.Fields("CEmployerID") & vbCrLf
This works to find the first record... eventually, because it does not begin its search at the first record. The results in the immediate window are below.
I believe the field CEmployerID is unrelated to the issue. I am also attaching screen shots of the table "tblContact" and code with immediate window. I have tried indexing and not indexing the CEmployerID field in the Contact table to no avail. Even though the Do Until Loop eventually finds my record,
creating auto number field in access database. I have an access database which 20 million records. When i am trying to add auto number field i am getting error "File sharing lock count exceeded".Then i did some google search and got some information like editing the registry file , in my case its not possible due to security restrictions.And another option of adding a code in VB immediate window also i tried but this option is also not working.
I have a table and it is like this 1 a 2 b 3 f let's assume i want to add new data {C} so it will be like this : 1 a 2 b 3 f 4 c
Is their any way i make the table look like this 1 a 2 b 3 c 4 f can i force the auto number to change according to the filter applied on the table is their a numeric field can be used instead on auto number that can be changed according to the filters
