Trying To Create A Report (calendar Style) Based On Weekly Activities
Jan 15, 2015
I have created a table for a Gym that shows which classes / activities are on which days. You will notice in the image below that i have assigned Boolean to associate a class with a day of the week.
I now am trying to create a Calendar STyle report that GROUPS all activities by the day they are on. So, for example, see below:
As you can see, all of Monday's activities will appear first (in a group) followed by Tuesdays.
One way I think I could achieve this is by doing a QueryMonday, QueryTuesday...etc so I have dataset or resultsset for each day. Then I could bring into a report, each query as a sub-report. I believe this is overly complex for what i'm trying to achieve. Also, using 5 grouping levels in one report doesn't achieve it either.
I'm creating a query for a someone who wants quantities summed by a weekly range and correspond to a week number. This person wants Access to do something that is a simple function on Excel.
I have no clue how to do this or if Access is even made to do something like this.
I need a calendar that can go forever that shows weeks and not months and each record i add (or is added by admin form) will show up. I have a calendar attached here to show what i mean but its monthly not weekly.
Basically it needs 7 spots for employee vacation leave, 2 spots for supervisor leave and 2 spots for other leave. My current calendar will only fit the 7 employees and no1 else thus the reason i want to go weekly and not monthly, so it has more room.
I have a report that shows the daily activities. it shows how long it takes to do each task. however some tasks are 8 hours andsome are 10 hours. when all these times are added together it will give the time on a clock. not a total of hours spent.
i.e. treatment1 : 8 hours treatment2: 10 hours
this will give 06:00 in short time. in medium time it will give 18:00.
however if I add another 12 hours to that it will give 06:00.
I want it to show either 1 day and 4 hours /or 30 hours.
I have used the tree control to acomplish this but the major drawback I have found is it becomes WAY too slow when utilizing large amounts of data due to many embeded loops. Does anyone know an alternative or a way to program the tree control to only add nodes once a selection is expanded?
Basically I want this to operate as a drilldown of infinate levels with the speed of windows explorer. Unfortunatly all the code I have seen requires that all nodes are designated/Created when the form is loaded.
In my current database there seems to be two different types of borders in my pop-up forms! The best way to explain it is that some forms will have the Access style border while others have the glass style border that you see in windows. I can't seem to find any settings that will change this or even determine what causes it.
I 'm trying to create a database for tracking time off from work and print a weekly roster. I have built several databases in Access 2003 and have now transitioned to 2010 and it is seems to be going well. My past databases have been rather simple data in data out not really that big of a deal. However on this database they need a report that will show them a week view that shows them all the employees regular days off and any additional time off they have schedule in that week.
I have an employee info table that has employee basic info, Emp name, Emp number, Work Week code (which identifies which days off the employee has) Hire Dates (for seniority sorting) and then I have 7 fields listed as D1, D2, D3 and so on until D7 (I will try to explain these fields later).
I have another table (Time Requests) that has 3 fields, Date, Emp number, and Time code (which identifies why they are off work or unavailable to be assigned).
The last table I will refer to has 7 fields, they are Date1, Date2, Date3, Date4, Date,5 Date6, Date7
I now have a form. This form has the 7, fields Date1, Date2.... Date7.
On my form Date1 field is updated by a manager with a date that is a Sunday then Date2 = [Date1]+1,Date3 = [Date1]+2 and so on until I have all 7 fields showing dates from Sunday - Saturday.These fields are lined across the top in a vertical direction positioned above a subform of the employee info table. So directly below the 7 Date fields are the D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7 fields then to the right is the Emp name and Emp number, This gives me a Week view of who is working.
I have been able to get the D1, D2.. fields to show their respective Work Week codes by writing very simple If Then statements . So here is where I AM STUCK, When I am showing this week view how do I get D1 - D7 to identify what date they are supposed to be in reference to Date1 - Date7 then compare themselves to the table Time Requests to see if they have a match and then set the value of D1, D2 . to the Time code in that table. D1 - D7 need to auto populate and do this for about 50 employees.
I have a database of around 15,000 users and I'd like to create a query that I can run on a weekly basis and save the results to an Excel spreadsheet. The results need to be logical and understandable by my coworkers.
Unfortunately, the actual results of the query are not (in their raw form) logical or easy to interpret.
Let's say I have a table called "users" and within that I have:
Surname Forename FieldA FieldB FieldC
FieldA has a value of either NULL or a 12-digit number FieldB has the values are "ENABLED", "DISABLED" and "N/A" FieldC contains a value of either "1" or NULL
This means nothing to my coworkers who want each user to be sorted into a "category". As I'm running this on a weekly basis, I'd like this query to do the work for me, so I don't have to manually assign everyone to a category in Excel. Plus, of course, there is no chance of human error if the query does this for me.
Sooo... I'd like my query to categorise for me as follows:
Category1 = FieldA IS NOT NULL and FieldB="ENABLED" Category2 = FieldA IS NOT NULL and FieldB="N/A" Category3 = FieldA IS NULL and FieldB="ENABLED" Category4 = FieldA IS NULL and FieldB="N/A" Category5 = FieldA IS NOT NULL and FieldC = 1 ... etc.
I'd like the final column in the query results to simply list the category name, so I can simply copy and paste the data into an Excel spreadsheet and be done with it, safe in the knowledge that it makes sense to all.
Basically, I have a database table that is maintained every week. It is about e-mail account licenses for Office 365.
Each column represents a week of license data for every mailbox account which is about 10 000 plus users with the date as the field headers( something like "License information as of 06122013").
Basically, I have created 52 queries based on the license type I require to be calculated & I have a form created to control it. However, right now it is all output only as I have yet to create any user parameter to specify on any of the queries about the date I want
As I am currently unsure how to specify all the queries to use one field date header which I want the user to specify via drop down list in order to calculate all the licenses on this specific date.
For example, if I want to see the license information for 06/11/2013, I would choose "License as of 06112013" & it would then run all the queries based on the header specified earlier & output that information on the form.
Right now the queries are all configured as the "Select" type.
I am trying to generate a report that is based off of a query. The query has a form filter that it needs to filter the data. I keep getting a jet engine error and couple others.
The form has year, start week, and end week on it. I can get the query to work fine. When I try to open the report, Access says it doesn't recognize the " [Forms]![frmUptimeFilter]![StartWeek] " as a valid field name or expression.
I have an excel report which I would like to run through Access to drive trend analysis and compare with other similar reports. The excel report has a cumulative spend figure each week and not the actual weekly spend numbers, the budget figure also can change depending on the actuals.
Excel report:
Week 1 Product ID Customer Yearly Budget Spend
1122 Sam 100 3
1123 John 200 4
[code]...
Will I need to create a new table each week or can I link the file and it updates automatically?Can Access store the weekly data and just update it one week at a time?
I am trying to display upcoming events in an outlook style report.
We have 5 rooms available for bookings, the report loads fine for 4 of these but for whatever reason the Board Room report (Weekly Bookings Board Room) throws up a data mismatch error, and the datasource is exactly the same as the other reports but checking for a different room.
This works great to return a report if the user selects something from the combo box. How do I adapt this so that the user can also leave the combo box blank and filter the report to return all records?Additionally, what if I want to have the user filter between dates selected on the form; i.e. between 'txtStart' and 'txtEnd'
how to build a weekly report to count the number of computers that have entered a defined process. I have four processes and I need the report to show counts for each process even if it's zero. The report is supposed to show the history of each process and not just the current week. Is this possible to do in a single query? Or do I have to make multiple queries?
I have a table that holds the history of each workstation including the workstationName, date of the record, the phase of the workstation, and the status of the phase. Another table holds the phase codes and phase statuses for lookup purposes.
I am trying to find out if there is a way for me to create a table based on a specific month. For example I might select January 2005, I would then want to create a table with all the days of that month included, so that I could then add specific data to each day.
Is there a way that I can simply query the system calendar to do this sort of thing. I have spent quite a lot of time searching through this forum but have had no luck.
I am a novice Access user. The idea is to build a visit tracking database. We are currently using excel to input appointments and outlook for statistics and patient data (as contacts). I am basically doing double the work.
The excel sheet is one week (Mon-Sun), the dates are in the top row; the names of patients are in t/he left-most column. The visit is marked by the name of the therapist. So, if John Doe has a visit from Linda on 08/25/12, there would be a "L" in the cell corresponding to the date and patient. There are also initial visits by the head therapist and there is a letter "IV" in the cell to indicate that.
I know that I can import the contact list from outlook and create a table and I know there's a calendar function.
Is there a way to 1. Create a form that will act as a weekly calendar (with each cell in a column having the same date, indicated in the top row) with connection/sync with outlook? 2. Be able to customize this form: add and delete patients in the left column. 3. Have the form count number of visits (# of total visits, # of total visits after the initial visit). In other words keep statistics of various sorts.
As a continuation from this thread (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=98369)...
Currently, I have a list of programs, each program could be considered the "task". When the task is completed, I want the user to click the date on the calendar and have it grayed out. As I mentioned before I have this working correctly, but I have the calendar pulling up based on a query that relys on the program ID. No problem, that way each program has it's own calendar. Now I need to be able to have it pull up the current month if one exists, and if it does not exist create it. For instance it works fine now, but once we hit 1/1/06, it will still be the same calendar... I want it to create a new record, so I could theoretically look at the old calendar if need be.
I tried to tie my query to a month field as well, but to no avail.
I've got a table 'Activity' with around 9000 records built up over the past 18 months. Each record has three fields: ID (autonumber), Start (datetime) and End (datetime). An activity can start and end at any time (denoted Start and End), and be of any duration. Generally there are several activities underway, but occasionally nothing's happening.
What I'm struggling to do is create a query which returns the Start and End date/time of each 'gap' - i.e. all the periods when there was no activity.
I assume this requires 2 instances of the table so that the end of each activity can be compared with all the other Start / Ends to see if it falls in a gap, but nothing works so far, so grateful for any help.
I have a project with several activities, each activity has specific people who work in the activity and of course an ID for the activity. Now every person has a unique ID, name, address, birth date, address ,,,, etc
a person can work in several activities ,, now what i want to know is should i put activities in a table , and persons in another table or what !!? how can i connect the two tables? How can assign a new activity for the persons?
let us say that all the activities need 100 workers, but there will be duplicate of the workers, how can i find the actual number of the workers without duplicate?? ( i need to find the numbers of all workers and the number of the actual workers)
Finally i want a restriction that if a person worked in five activities, i want an alarm or warning that this person has worked for four activities and he can't work any more, is that something i can do !??
Is there a way to create a report that looks like a calendar?
I am creating a db for a sports league and would like to print out a schedule of games by day of the week and would like the schedule to look like a calendar.
I am new to this and any help would be appreciated.
I have attached a sample of a calendar report I'm working on. I got it to "almost" work! Hard to explain without showing it. . . . The problem is getting it to know not to start the calendar until Day 1 of the month. Right now, it does the following:
Su MoTu WeTh Fri Sat 04 05 06 07 01 02 03 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 etc.
So I want it to know to put "blanks" in the Sun. through Wed. spot. I looked at a sample calendar that Meloncolly had uploaded here, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to work with the way I'm doing it. (I need to be able to print a year at a time. . . .)Maybe a combo of the two?
If I can get that to work, then I would like to get multiple day appointments to appear on each day between the start and end date of that apptmt.--but one thing at a time. Does anyone know how to fix this first step?
What I'd like to do is place a Calendar on a form, then either click or double click on a specific date on that calendar to pop up a report showing records for only the date selected on the calendar. I have an ActiveX Calendar on my form, but I don't see any Event Procedures for Click or Double Click, just Update, Enter, Exit, Focus. Also, if that is not possible, can you select the date, then click a command button to do it instead?
I am currently developing a calendar and am trying to open a recordset based off of a SQL string. When I deleted the Where part of the SQL statement, the code ran fine. So I am pretty sure that the problem lies within the Where part of the code. I use this code to filter my query based on txtTaskTypeID but if the value is null then the query is suppose to return all values. I keep getting Run-time error"3061: Too few parameters. Expected 1".
