Tables :: Adding Term Date Or Active Marker To Employee Table
Apr 25, 2014
I have an active database that is used to evaluate employee call performance. When building the database (my first full attempt) I did not include a way to sort out employees who are no longer active.
I know I don't want to delete them.
1) Add a termination date to the employee tableHow do I set my form to ignore all employees with a term date? (I currently have a drop down box that allows us to choose the associate from the employee table by using the Row Source)...
What if the employee were to return to the position (has only happened about 5 times in 15 years) would sorting termed employees out of reports be as simple as adding in the criteria of the query something like "is Null" under the term date?
2) Add a radial button to the employee table to show "active"Same question about how to ignore employees that have been unclicked?
3) Add a Z-to the last name of the (employee name) this will drop them to the bottom of the list.What happens to the associated records under the "old" employee name?
I'm reworking a db to make it web compatible. Right now I'm working on my Price and Sales tables.There are about 900 Sales records, 450 Price records (for about 45 Items).
I have re-done my Price table with an Autonumber Key field. (It had a multi-key which I understand web db does not support.) Each autonumber key represents a Date with new Price for a Company/Item. The Price change Dates are random.
I have put a Foreign Field in my Sales table for the Price key field.
My dilemma is matching the Sales with the Prices.
When the Price Date and Sales Date do not match (at least half of them don't match), I need to look back in the Price table to the max Date BEFORE the Sales Date in the Sales table for that Company/Item in order to select the correct Price key.
I need a system which will tick all the boxes to corresponding records when I print a report? The next time I open the report it would only show the unticked boxes which had yet to be printed.
I created a query which at first was simply to run a query which asks you for a drivers name, however we have decided that now we want to sort by the employee name as well as by a specified date range. I originaly had it set up to select the driver name with this in the criteria field in the Driver Name column:
[Enter Driver Name]
Then I tried to enter the following in to the criteria field in the date column:
Between [Enter Start Date: (Format MM-DD-YY)] And [Enter End Date: (Format MM-DD-YY]
However when I run the query it asks me for the date about 4 times, and then it goes to a blank report. I am sure I am not doing this properly somehow, anyone care to help out?
I am trying to figure out a way to pull a date from a table and add it to another table automatically. I'm building a database for a harvest/trucking operation and we want to be to set the date everyday and then it pull that date on all of our tickets, reports, etc. Most days we run till after midnight but we want to still record the date as the day we started so I don't think pulling the date from the computer itself would be a good option.
I have a query from a table (to reduce the number of fields).The list is all the positions people have performed, as person could have one record another could have 10 the number is unlimited.
Fields are:- -employee ID -start date -position
I need to find any records that were active ON or AFTER 01/09/2014. This will be 1 record for most but some could have multiple.I think it makes it more difficult that there is no END DATE.
I am building a DB for my college, it is needed to replace a spreadsheet they have in place. The spreadsheet is used to monitor and track Students grades.
Each unit a student passes gives that student a certain number of points, the number of points depends on the grade (e.g. a student will get more points for a B than they would for a C). The point of the DB is to input all the students grades so that student can see how many points they have.
I was wondering if there is a way to add a value to a field, so if I put in a field that a student got a B grade the database would know how much a B grade is worth points wise. Each field should be added together to generate an overall score. Is this possible?
I am building a database for a martial arts program for older/elderly adults. I have a section that measures their physical capabilities. I need to create a text box that will fill in if their abilities are below average, average, or above average on one of the tests. The problem is, the test measurements are based on age and a range of repetitions.
For example, men 60-64 need to do 14-19 reps of the exercise to be average and women of 60-64 need to do 12-17 reps of the exercise. Men from 65-69 need 12-17 reps and women of the same age need 11-16 reps of the exercise. I have a box for their age (on a separate table from the rest of the information) but I need to figure out how to allow someone to fill in the number of reps a person did and have if they were average, above average, or below average filled into the last box based on that number, their age and their gender.
I tried a combo box, but I can't seem to figure out how to create the table to get it to work.
I am trying to add a user stamp in a table. I have seen online that perople put a macro (Before Change) in microsoft access 2010 but I dont understand how to use that.
I have seen you are suppose to do something with = Environ("username")
What I have is a database that I have done some tweaking on and in the meantime the original db has been in use which has added around 200 or so more records in the table.
What I would like to do is to just update the db that I have been working on with the older db table(the one who has the additional 200 records).
EX. DB A(Old DB, Newer Table) DB B(New DB, Older Table)
I want to put DB A table into DB B
Is this a simple fix? Or do I need to write some sort of query to update the records in the old table? I've tried to export the excel file and then import but it puts it in unrelated objects and then my switchboard or nothing works.
My database has three tables with many columns. The three tables are identical in the names of their columns.
I want to copy all columns from all three tables together into one single table, giving the respective columns prefix table1-, table2-, table3- since the columns would otherwise be indistinguishable.
I already tried to search the board for "table columns add prefix".
I use Access 2010
I managed to copy all columns together into one table through design-view, but cannot figure out the "add prefix" step.
I want to make a table where in I have to input atleast 10 numbers in one reference ID which there is a start time and end time.
A form with inputing one reference ID and then adding multiple numbers at once and saving the data with a start time and end time. Is it possible to capture the time for that specific reference ID?
tblProductFacilityMM - ProductToFacilityID - ProductIDFK (combined with FacilityIDFK to make a PK) - FacilityIDFK
As I'm writing this out, I am realizing that tlbProductFacilityMM.producttoFacilityID is probably not necessary, but that I don't expect that to have much significance to the issue. So I've setup a query between the two tables:
Code: SELECT tblProductInfo.ProductID, tblProductInfo.ItemNumber, tblProductInfo.JDEDescription, tblProductFacilityMM.FacilityIDFK, tblFacility.FacilityDescription FROM tblFacility INNER JOIN (tblProductInfo INNER JOIN tblProductFacilityMM ON tblProductInfo.ProductID = tblProductFacilityMM.ProductIDFK) ON tblFacility.FacilityID = tblProductFacilityMM.FacilityIDFK;
And used it to create my subform which is simply a drop down box for tblProductFacilityMM.FacilityIDFK. My main form is one that has already been in use for 6 months or so, it is based off the tblproductinfo table and needs to have the option to select multiple Facilities for each ProductID. I inserted the subform, but when I try to select a facility I get an error that reads:
Quote: Cannot Join Records; Join key of tblProductFacilityMM not in recordset.
Hi, I have 7 tables in my database and 1 form corresponding to all the fields in these tables (linked by a query by recordsource). My problem is that the form will only show a record if ALL 7 tables have manually had the primary key entered (not good when i have information that needs to be added at different times). How can I make it such that if I create a new record on the form that all primary key fields will be updated, and this record will be present every time i open my the form??
I am a beginner in access and I want to populate a new field (REPUN_1 which corresponds to SEGMT_ID in the other table) in my table and this field is coming from another table. The values of the fields need to correspond to the row of my actual table (JMTable) having the same CO_ID, MOVEPLANCD and TTY_NO as the table I want to extract the values from (DI_Treaty_Crosswalk).
Here is my query:
UPDATE JMTable SET [REPUN_1] = DI_Treaty_Crosswalk.SEGMT_ID WHERE JMTable.TTY_NO = DI_Treaty_Crosswalk.TTY_NO AND JMTable.CO_ID = DI_Treaty_Crosswalk.CO_ID AND JMTable.MOVEPLANCD = DI_Treaty_Crosswalk.MOVE_PLAN_CD
and it doesn't work since access ask me to enter a parameter value.
I have a table A in which I write down orders for cars. A record is an order. A single order may contain multiple cars in varying quantities.Each car has its components. Some cars may have some of their components common. There is a table B which indicates each car and its components required with their quantities required to build the car. There is a record for each different car.
Now suppose there is a new car we are going to produce so we need a new record in table B for the car and all its components. Also we need a new field in table A because people can now order the new car(in some quantity).
With form for table B we can introduce a new record. But how can we add a field in table A automatically after a record is added in table B?
Table in my access 2010 is configured to have a unique records (no duplicates)which has now records more than 2000 so i copied the table and pasted Structure only. what i would like to have is that new table which presently is empty should not add any record which is already available in old table. While entering data in new table i would like users to see the error if they try to enter the record which was previously entered in old table.
I have a fe that has 5 tables linked to a backend db on the server.I want to add a new table to the fe that is linked to a second db on the server? What I have tried.I have created the tbl_called in the fe.when I right click on it and go to Linked Table Manager I do not see it on the list. The only tables in the list are the 5 I linked before. Why is tbl_called not showing up??
How can I auto populate fields based on a payment term & amount?
example: client has 9 monthly payment of $150 term due every 15th of the month. (I would like it to be able to max out at 30 months)
So what I want to do is populate 9 monthly fields with dates and $150 payments fields next to it. Now, the payment fields even after auto populate, must be flexible in the sense for me to add a different amount just in case client makes an over payment that month too. In, addition I would like a check mark box to auto populate along if possible based on the 9 month term, this way I can manually check TRUE when payment is received in office.
Okay I had an idea and I thought I might get ffedback as I am relatively new to this. I went through a period a couple of years ago when I used access alot and was becoming familiar with VBA etc but I havent touched it in 2 years so Im pretty rusty.
I am running a study and need to have to create a database that:
a. collects data about participants b. Has a number of questionnaires (5), each of which can be filled out by participants.
THe main table has a number of fields that collects info about the participants the most important of which will be the ParticipantID - an automatically generated number which is my primary key.
In table 2/form 2 I will host questionnaire one. This will be linked to Table 1/Form 1 (Particpant Information) by this tables primary key - also the Participant ID. The relationship will be 1:1. Each participant can only have one Participant ID and will only need to fill out questionnaire one once.
Is it possible that when I add a new participant to the Participant Information table/form I also automatically create a record in Table 2/Form 2 (Questionnaire 1), as well as Table 3/Form3 (Questionnaire 2) and so on so that they have the same ParticipantID...?
I was reading a similar query somewhere else and they said to use the Form_AfterInsert Event command? Is this right (see here http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/thread-1687644.php)?
I feel a bit stupid but I am willing to learn and try new things Once I get started I think I will be okay. If you could steer me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
My 2nd post, and I am very new to DB and Access. I have a problem that I want to get help on. I want to set up a main form that is used to enter and delete all data for my table. I wish to add either a button or to make it automatically happen when a record is deleted, that it is first copied to a separate table with the same fields, except it also has a closed date that would be the date that the record was copied over. I know zilch about VB, VBA or any other language other than AutoIt, so assume I am what I am, an ignorant beginner.
I did look into the event somethihng like upondeletion or something... while trying to find help on this in the access and VBA parts of Office, but I do not know how to utilize the event with Basic or SQL, which I know none of either.
Any help or examples are very much appreciated.
**EDIT** I do not require all fields to be recorded to the secondary DB (History), so if someone can just give me an example of how I would move two fields to a separate DB, I can hopefully learn enough from it to do more.
Thanks a Bunch!
EXAMPLE** Current Loans (Table 1): CustomerID Name Address City State Phone
Customer History (Table 2): CustomerID Name Phone
That gives an example to help understand what I need. I want to store the CustomerID, Name and Phone values of the record being deleted, to the History Table, which I am using as a closed account table for later look up.
Hi, I'm having problems getting my head around the best way to design a table for an employees expenses. This is my current M_Expenses table:
ExpenseID (PK) PayrateID ExpenseType Amount
PayrateID is the foreign key to a table that holds information about their rates, evertime etc.
My idea was that the user would only choose an expense if the employee were entitled to that expense - so if someone was not entitled to flight expenses the record would not be created. However my boss says that if he were to look at the report produced from this he wouldn't know whether the person putting in the data just didn't have the information at the time or it didn't apply to that employee. So I will need to let the users know that they must create a record for each.
Also the report must list all of the expenses: Per diem expense Accommodation Car hire Flight Other expenses They need to be listed in this order and must appear whether that particular employee is entitled to them or not. I don't see how I can do this as it is because my subreport that lists the expenses is a continuous form and they are not listed in alphabetical order. Plus only expenses that the user has chosen will appear.
The only other way I can see to do it is redesign my table as follows: ExpenseID PerDiem Accommodation CarHire Flights OtherExpenseType OtherExpenseAmount
