I need to create an inventory database that will track customer owned inventory as it is received stored serviced and sent back to my customer. I am in the oil and gas industry and store large amounts of customer owned pipe. many joints will have the same part number but each joint is one of a kind in that it has a joint,heat, lot, and batch number. here is an example,
Job Name: Shell ex
Part Number: 129001
Quantity: 1000
Each one of the thousand joints will have a combination of this information making it one of a kind.
My system needs to allow my users to receive jobs, record where we store the pipe in a rack location, pull the specific joints out of inventory as the customer calls for them. We will receive 1000 at a time but the customer calls for portions of that job over long periods of time..
I would like to create a small HR database that holds:
* Employee details (Name, Date of birth, Entry Date, Exit Date, Function,Department, Shift) * Departments * Departments and capabilities needed * Employee, departments and capability achieved (1=yes, 0=no)
The idea would be to have a link between the employee the departments capabilities I can tick fields of the capabilities they have or have achieved.
When I have this I could run a report that shows a score per employee For example:
Name: Department: Orderpicking: Packing: Cutting:
John Warehouse 1 1 0
As the tasks / capabilities required are different per department you would see something different if you would have user Jane that works in accounting
Is there anyone that can give me some hints so that I can get any further??
For the moment I have 3 tables:
1. Employee information - John, Jane 2. Departments - Warehouse, Accounting 3. Department tasks - Department, Cap1, Cap2, Cap3, Cap4
I run a soccer league where we track players attendance for each game. I currently do it on a spreadsheet where each game date is a column and each player is a row. We also track which team they play on at each game (they can play on different teams different weeks). I currently have a second tab in the spreadsheet to record which team a person plays on each week.
Setting up a table of fields for this is relatively easy. The problem comes to data entry. I want to be able to visually see the data like I can in a spreadsheet (names in rows, dates in columns, intersections containing either team name or whether attended) and whilst a cross-tab query gives me the layout, I cannot input data in a cross-tab query.
I have some basic knowledge of Access and how it works but when it comes to the SQL formulas and some database structures I have not had enough experience. If someone could please guide me in the right direction with this I would appreciate it.
I have need to setup a database of all equipment in a small room so that I can keep inventory on it. Right now I have a database with three tables in it. An Items table that relates barcodes of an item to the actual item name. A Tech table that contains all the techs that would take from or replace something in the inventory of this room. And a Transactions table where it holds what item, who, and if it was taken or stocked.
What I need the most help with setting up right now is how do I use the transactions table to total up all uses and stocks of each unique item so that I can get an idea of what is actually supposed to be in the room at the moment.
I need to create a small inventory database tracking product in stock and "x" amount of raw material to create it.
Is there a way, using MS Access that I can track inventory of the product as well as update how much material was used to create the product?
I am new to access but I know how to create a database and enter the fields I want, eg: product id, model number, product color, in stock, re order, lead time.
My problem is associating another table to deduct/or add the amount of material based on totals.
In a nutshell, I want to track product inventory as well as track raw material in stock to create more.
Im creating a db to keep records of computers that have been assigned to persons in their various departments and also unassigned computers and spare parts.
problem:
For the machine specifications table should i put in the following fields as columns
Hard Drive 1 Hard Drive 2 Hard Drive 3 Optical Drive 1 Drive 2 Drive 3
or should i just create a field called Component and another field called type/size e.g. component would be hard drive or opticqal drive and Type/Size would be 60GB or DVD+RW
or should i just create individual tables to store the Hard drive info separate from the optical disk and separate from the memory.
The database is going to get really big which is why i wana structure it properly you r help would be really appreciated.
I am trying to develop an inventory control database and would really appreciate some advice on the way I propose to develop the application
Inventory Control Database.
Outline for inventory control database.
The database will have the following tables:
Supply Table
Person Table
Supplied Table
On hand table
Orders Table
The Supply Table - will store the names of the stock items available
The persons table - will basically hold information on the person receiving the product/supplies
The Supplied Table - will hold information on who is being supplied, what is being supplied, who is the supplier, how much is supplied and when.
The On Hand table - will initially store the opening stock for all the stock items available. When an individual is given some of that stock, the amount of stock given will be subtracted from the on hand total, for that particular stock item.
The Orders Table – Will be the place where we will record all orders received. Once an order is received, this figure will be added to the On Hand Total for that particular item. So ultimately the on hand table should reflect initially the opening stock figure, then the opening stock figure plus any amounts ordered. I anticipate that after the initial opening stock figure is entered onto the system, the on hand table will be automatically populated by the orders table, and the site user will only need to manually update the On hand table in case of emergency, for example if a mistake is made on the order table.
I would really appreciate some help with the table design logic here. This is the first time that I have developed a stock ordering system, and would appreciate any advice on the over all design.
Initially, I want to build this as an access application then convert it to a web application ASP/SQL Server
I'm wrestling with a problem with a hardware and software database, on the software side. I'm trying to figure out where to store the license and media cost for a piece of software. Right now I have the following tables:
1. Software name (MS Word, Office, for example) 2. Software version, which also stores whether a license is required 3. Software license, which includes the license code and whether that license expires 4. Software inventory table, which stores the # of licenses we have available for installation. The purchase order (PO) # and date are currently here. 5. Software PO generating table. This is used when we need to reorder more licenses, or a new piece of software.
I need to figure out where to store the cost of the software, the cost of the license, how many people are covered by the license. I've been trying to decide which of the last three tables should store this information.
There are two issues: we need to keep a history of how much older versions of the software and its licenses cost, as well as be able to enter information to order new versions of the software and/or licenses.
I am developing a database for a friend and have all the relationships, tables, forms, queries and reports working well. I used the orders template to build this and just made a few changes. I have an orders form with an orders details subform that works beautifully. There is also customers table, employee table, products and inventory table. The inventory table has product ID, units in stock and reorder level as the only fields. I need an easy way to have the orders detail form decrease inventory as items are ordered and also some sort of way to enter restock. Can anyone offer advice that a beginner can understand in regard to this?
I wrote an update query that he can run that will subtract the qty ordered from the units on stock for orders with order date >= whatever date he enters, but if he enters a date he's previously updated it will update those records again. I think this is not a good way to go but the only way I could accomplish. I have him using the same order entry form with customer name Restock to add items to inventory by putting an if then else statement in the before mentioned update query. This just adds to inventory if customer name="Restock" else the qty ordered is inventory units in stock -qty ordered.
I'm sure someone can suggest a better way. A friend mentioned dsum function but can't explain how to apply it in this instance. Thanks so much!!!!
I am trying to create a simple store keeping In and Out inventory database using Access, I thought I had made it but looks like I am missing something here.
The store works on SRV (Store Receiving Voucher) and SIV (Store Issue Voucher). Products will be added based on SRV and will be issued out based on SIV. So far I have created the tables as you can see in the figure. One thing I am not understanding is where to keep the record of the Current Quantity of each product, lets say an Item has been added or issue out, it should be added or deducted accordingly from that specific products overall quantity. Right now I have a sample field within products table as you can see with the name QtyOnHand but that doesn't seem to be logical.
Im building an inventory database for my company and have the tables, relationships, forms and query's built but im struggling to figure out a way to make all the quantities move around when I have a purchase order or sales order that either adds to removes from inventory.
My database is fairly simple as all I need to do is track what is coming and going and what is the current levels of inventory. I have for instance a product table that has all the information on what products I have and what their part numbers, item number (primary key), description and so forth, separate customer tables and supplier tables, as well as an inventory table setup similar to the northwinds database. I used queries to combine my purchase order and purchase order detail tables and to combine the sales order and sales order detail tables to make sales orders and purchase orders through their respected forms and all is good in that sense but it doesn't move the inventory numbers just lists what is in each purchase Order/Sales order.
I want to make inventory fifo(first in first out) db. Example:
February 1- beginning balance : 800 unit @ 6$ per unit 4- received 200 unit @ 7$ per unit 10- received 200 unit @ 8$ per unit 11- issued 800 unit 12- received 400 unit @ 8$ per unit 20- issued 500 unit 25- returned 100 unit to storeroom to be recorded as latest issued prices 28- received 600 unit @ 9$ per unit
The report must be like pic attached
I dont know how to make transaction to do this....
I have a sheet of inventory I am working on creating. The price for storage for an item is determined by 2 things. 1. the type of material and 2. the size of that material. I have created a table with the material types and sizes. Is there a way that I can have the price automatically populate when I select the type of material and then size?
I have a database that I use to put in orders for our shop and keep track of our part informations as well as paint and packing materials. Everything works good on this but I am trying to create a table for adjusting quantities on hand for packing material based on the part quantities and for adjusting paint in stock based on information given to me after the job is run.
There is already a relationship between parts and packing material as well as parts and paint. When I put an order in I would like to have it adjust out that many packing materials that are related to that part. Once a job is run I need to be able to adjust out the amount of paint used.
For the paint side of this I want it to track the paint used by order, we are trying to get a grasp on how much paint we are using for parts so it is important for me to know how much and when.
I am thinking I need a table that connects paint to orders and has quantities in it, then create a query and do the calculations from there... I do not know how to accomplish that but it sounds like it could be right...
I am not sure how complicated of a job this is, but we want to be able to import our daily recievals of inventory into our existing inventory database instead of entering it by hand. I try using the wizard, however when I get to "finish" it says there was an error and it was not imported.
I don't know much about access but I was hoping one of you could point me in the right direction.
I want to track inventory. All our items are tubes that are stored in boxes in a 10x10 grid. So I have a single access table with columns for tube ID, box ID, and position in the box (numbered 1-100). That works fine in terms of 'where can I find tube x'. However it's also useful to be able to look at the physical box & check that there are tubes where should be tubes, and empty spaces where there should be empty spaces. So for each box in the database, I want to print out a 10x10 grid, with the appropriate tube ID's in the appropriate place. Then I can easily check the layout in the database against the layout in the actual box.
I have a Inventory DB and i want to integrate scanning. So far i have a table called StockInfo, this table holds information about bar codes (device type, make, model). I have a form called Scan_Barcode, on this form I want to be able to scan a bar code into a text box (text0) and use a afterupdate and requery function to display the results onto a form called EnterInventory.
Not only just the results but I want certain columns from the query to display in certain text boxes on this form. I have a query called FindProduct. that filters the criteria by whats entered on the Scan_Barcode text box (text0). So when i scan a certain bar code i can get the query to display certain product information for the bar code. I just cant get the results onto the HarwareStock form.
I have a table with inventory items, a separate table with storage charges per day (ex .03, .04, .05 per day/per item)
I have created some queries where I take the items & # of days they have been in storage and when I try and create an expression for storage charges based upon QTY & # of days I am getting results like it is multiplying whole numbers and not very small increments like .03
I have checked the math, and its not multiplying by 3 instead of .03... I cant quite figure out how it is coming up with the numbers.
Again, the pricing is coming from a lookup wizard to another table. It seems like it should be a very straight forward expression but I cannot get it to work. Does the figures being from a lookup have any issues?
I have 5 tables and 2 forms. The primary form is what I input all the information into (Tracking) and the other form is to update employee information (update form).
The "Tracking" form is where I add information to 4 of the 5 tables. Here is where I'm stumbling. Would it be more practical to just have 1 table and just expand the fields, or have the form put the information into the separate tables. Those 4 tables are Employee, phone, spotter and radio.
I'm wanting to keep a running tally of who doesn't turn in what equipment on what day.
17412 Hi, I am trying to set up a database for organizing Track and Field meets. I'm a newbie to a lot of the Access capabilities. I've attached a PDF of what I'm looking at doing for my Access tables. Some of the tables I think I have right. I don't know how to organize the meets, events, days. Should I have a table for each event? Can you look at my tables and give me advice on problems you can see? In the end I would like to enter the event results by race. Some races could have 10 or more heats. There are also field events that have different number of attempts depending on the meet. There are different track meets with different events each time and the order in which the events occur changes from meet to meet. Any help or advice you can give me would be great. Thanks!
Hi, I'm working on this huge project and would like to see if anyone has any advice on how to structure and build my database. This is for the Accounting of Payroll for Staff, Contractors, and Per Diems (untaxed travel and housing exp) for a theater company about to do a major production.
The problem is there are several categories of Staff (Directors, Producers, Actors, Orchestra, Sound / Light, Costume, etc.) and each one gets paid differently. Some may get a weekly salary, a per diem, or paid contract in installments throughout the performance (e.g. 500 on openining night, 500 on closing night). Some get paid a combination of the above. The hard part is some get processed through an online payroll, while others are paid through manual check (yet in this case, certain deductions must be made). That's what made this so complicated as some will require a % of gross paid to their agent, a % to union, and balance to them.
I thought I had this figured out w/ a massive spreadsheet showing who gets what and in what period, To further complicated it, payroll is bi-weekly, so then my data within a spreadsheet became just too much to even make sense of although the data is correct.
So my question is, what tables should I create? Pay Periods / Actors / Agents / Pay Type / Contractors / or all of these in one table? I don't expect anyone to reply to this as it is asking so much and not clearly defined. But if anyone has had a similar experience I'd appreciate your help.
I have data entered all current employee training and dates that training was done.
I am looking for an explanation on how I can set it up so i can see who of the employees have not recieved the training.
I am also looking for code for the query to calculate recurrent training dates (when the next training is due for each employee) Dates of initial training for each employee may be different, as well the training may be required every one year or every two years etc.
I am hoping that I am explaining this more clearly in hopes to get some input back from the experts on this site.

I have our primary web based inventory system that I am exporting to Excel and using this as an import to Access for the main raw data for my database. This being inventory it changes daily so I am updating this table every day. When I try to append the table it ads all the records. I am wanting an easy way to add only the new records/take out the ones that are no longer there. Basically update the table with what is currently there.The only have I have found to do this is by running non-matching queries and update queries.
