I am basically doing FORM to automatically figure out my stylists commission pay, based on 5 levels of sales and 3 different pay levels, that I will cut and paste in a table from my POS system.
3 Total Tables.
tbl_Employees, with the headers ID, Name, Payroll ID, Comm_Level.
tbl-Current Year with the headers ID, Payroll ID, Name, Service Sales.
tbl_Comm with the headers ID, CommLow, CommHigh, Level1, Level2, Level3
In a query, Qry_Years, I have Payroll ID, linked between the tbl_Employees and tbl-Current Year.
I am close in a FORM to getting this to work, unless DLookup is the wrong why to go about this.
This is not correct, but gives you an idea of what I am trying to do. In a FORM text box (called framePayrollIDLookup) I have
=DLookUp("Level1","tbl_Comm",[tbl - Current Year.Service Sales] & " between [CommLow] and [CommHigh]").
This pulls up the correct pay percent for level1 employees, but i need to change out Level1 to something variable.
This also doesn't work, but gives you an idea of my though process.
=DLookUp(" " = framePayrollIDLookup,"tbl_Comm",[tbl - Current Year.Service Sales] & " between [CommLow] and [CommHigh]"), but this doesn't work.
I might be way off base on how to do this, but I am trying. Thanks for any help.

I would like to create a payroll record that collect some information from another table. In other words:
-I have an employee. -I have a payroll table. -I would like to get some of the values from the employee table written to the payroll table when a new record is entered.
The form would look some thing like this:
Three boxes:
Employee: [ ] (table query to find name) # of students [ ] #of class minutes [ ] (value list with 3 choices)
When the SAVE button is pressed a record would be written to the payroll table with:
The payroll table would look like this: payrolid#, employee#, employee, # of students, # of class minutes, rate, date
The employee#, employee and the rate would come from the employee table.The # of students, # of class minutes and date would come from the payroll form.
I have a form that has 7 days (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, etc...). The time is formatted like 08:00AM. Under each of those controls I have something that uses the expression: =(((([Sunday End Time]-[Sunday Start Time])*24)*60)/60), which if the hours were 08:00AM - 04:00PM, would give me 480, and then I convert it to hours (8). I have all these fields defaulted to 12:00AM to 12:00AM. I have another box that totals all these fields and uses the expression: =([SUH]+[MH]+[TU]+[WH]+[TH]+[FH]+[SAH]). These boxes are all of the results of End time-Start time. Now the problem. I have a payrate field on the form that looks at the hours worked, so I needed to separate overtime from straight. I have a box that looks like this: =IIf([Hours Worked]>"40",40,([Hours Worked])). The hours worked box is the result from the sum of SUH+MH+, etc...The problem is, each time I have any hours in there less than 10, it will return a crazy result. If I only enter 8 hours, it enters in the hours worked box: 40 hours. If I add 2 more hours, it fixes itself. What is the problem. I would be happy to send the file over, or ANYTHING to get this to work.
I am attempting to creae a hyperlink to set into a table that is generated automatically by other information curently residing on the table, and with the ability to change the disc location.
The table I have created is an application that will name reports that I have in .PDF format. I put in the report title, date, inspectors, etc. and it gives me a unique name for the document. I then go to my document and name it what the application gives me. Now, we would like to have a link to that file that resides on the table, so if we look it up in the future we don't have to search any further, we can just click right there and go strait to it.
I know how to insert a hyperlink to get to the file, assuming it stays on the same directory. Our directories change fairly often (can go from C:/My Docs/File to E:/My Docs/File in a matter of a week), so I would like to know if there is a way to create a partial hyperlink that I can change the begining to whenever need be.
I am trying to create an automatic unique 'number' (actually text) in a form. Here is an example of the format...
1456.R1 1456 is the project number R stands for revision 1 is the first revision
So, in this database there could be 1456.R2 etc. but there could also be other project numbers, say 2323.R1, 2323. Looking for expression I need to enter to have Access look up the last revision for a specific project and then add 1 to it?
I am trying to develop a simple payroll. I have already developed three tables named tblEbmployee, tblPayment, tblDate. These are related with one to many between tblEmployees and tblPayment and one to many between tblPayment and tblDate. I dont need much calculations in the system. I will add salaries in tblPayments of the employees manually (as there is no set formula relating to the salary an employee). What i need is: To make a form which uses tblemployee for each month salary To carry the previous month salary data to next month without adding date for each employee indiividually. (is there a way to change month once that applies to all employees, keeping the record of previous month ) Do i need to add some other table to keep record of previous month payments and a table keeping record of rate of salary yours Arshad Slatch
I am trying to type a code based on 1 & 2 criterias. However, I am having a problem on the first criteria because it is adding 8 hours when it shouldn't. Can someone help to either fix my code or write a new one? Thank you very much!
Criteria 1: If the day_of_wk is 1, calculate time-reg_time/60, If the day_of_wk is 1 and time is less than 0, calculate time-reg_time/60+24
Criteria 2: If the day_of_wk is 2, calculate time/60, If the day_of_wk is 2 and time is less than 0, calculate time/60+24
My code: pre: IIf([day_of_wk]="2",[time]/60,IIf([time]<0,([time]-[reg_time])/60+24,([time]-[reg_time])/60))
Thanks first of all for the responses I always get on here.
Question: There are several number fields on my form that are calculate fields, which I will show later what the expression is, that are not rounding off to 2 decimals as I am asking it to. How do I fix this?
The expression: =(((([Wednesday End Time]-[Wednesday Start Time])*24)*60)/60). This is a control box located under two fields (Start time and End time). The fields are formatted as 08:00AM.
So if I did 08:00AM to 05:20PM, the result would be 9.333333333....This does not mean much for the day as it adds up to be only cents, but over the week it becomes dollars. If the actual number was 9.33, it would be ok. No use in explaining that, you all get the idea.
I'm trying to use a query to calculate the payroll for all the employees but it won't work. The two tables I have are 'Employees' and 'Employee Payroll'. In the 'Employee Payroll' table there are three fields- Employee ID, Days worked and Earnings. I need to calculate the sum of the earnings field but it just displays a blank list of records when I try it. Can anyone help? Thanks
I have an order database Access 2000 for an inspection company, tblInspectors, tblOrders, tblCustomers, I want to be able to calculate inspector pay within order database. Each inspector is an independent contractor, so it just needs to calculate percentage, for each inspection performed and total for pay period. Each inspector is paid a different percentage, which is stored in tblInspectors. Payroll is paid every two weeks . . . I've been trying to figure out the best way to do this ... :confused: Any advise be greatly appreciated.:confused:
Hi, I would like to get your advice on my table setup and relationships for this payroll project. The company is an engineering company with Projects (or construction sites) around the world.
The 'Candidates' are current or potential employees and contractors. There are three main pay categories:
1.Shift-workers All shift workers doing a particular job on a particular project are paid the same rates e.g. all welders on a particular project or site in England are paid the same as each other. For that reason I want to link the pay rates with the job description for these workers. This avoides creating 50 records for 50 welders on the site in England to say that they make £10 an hour normal time (or whatever it is) etc.
2. Contract Contract workers usually get paid a flat rate per hour. As these are negociated on an individual basis I would need to have this information linked to each individuals job (M_CandidateJobDetails).
3. Salary Again this information needs to be input for each individuals job.
For the contract and salary people the pay frequency can vary (weekly, bi-weekly or monthly). So can the currency they are paid in. I haven't got as far as the currency issue yet.
The reason for the one-to-many relationship between M_JobClassifaction and M_CandidateJobDetails is that many candidates can have the same type of job e.g. there can be many employees that in the job classifaction of 'Electrician'. For many of the jobs at managerial level e.g. 'site manager' there will only be one.
I will have a table with the hours worked by each person per week. I can use this for those on shift work or contract to calculate what they will be paid.
One of the main reasons for this database is so that the company can print reports to see what is paid out in payroll for each site and in total (in euros). These will be gross figures and I don't need to take expenses, vacations, bonuses or taxes into account. They other thing we will need to be able to do is assign candidates to vacant positions and change them from one position to another - possibly between different projects.
So basically does anyone have any comments on the relationships, normalisation or anything else. Is this the best way to do it?
I have a table called tbl_Employee. The employee's hourly rate is one of the columns. I want to create a forecasting schedule that will find the work days between two dates, multiply by 8 (hours per day) and multiply by the hourly rate.
For example, Employee A has rate of $100/hr. We forecast they will work 250 work days from January 1, 2014 to January 1, 2015 so 250*8*100= $200,000.
However, on June 1, the rate for Employee A increases to $110. So the new forecast would be (125*8*100)+(125*8*110)=(100,000+110,000)=$210,000 .
I'm trying to build a Form that will allow one field to be automatically populated when data is entered in another field. I have a table that contains two Fields: Course Name and Course Code. When I enter the Course Name in a Form, I would like the corresponding Course Code to appear in the relevant box on the Form.
Can anybody point me in the right direction as to how this can be achieved
Hello, we are creating an input form to update a file in access. We would like to enter an order number and use that number to retrieve extra data from, a non access database. The extra data would be used to populate the fields in the access file.
I have a number of records in my database and I use a form to input information, update fields etc. One of these fields is a ratio. I would like to create another field, in the record, input from the form, that automatically generate the ranking of the record in the database using the ratio, in descending (or ascending) order. So if I have 1000 records, the field would return, right after I update the ratio, which ranking within these 1000 it now holds.
Is this possible? In the event two (or more) records share the same ratio, what happens?
Access Query. I am creating a time sheet / pay roll database and I want to be able to get a total of the daily hours in a query.
For example I have 'Mon Start' and 'Mon Finish' for Mondays in/out times and I have a 'Mon Total' which gives me the total hours worked for Monday.
The problem I have is that Mon Total only works if the hours are say between 07:00 and 17:00, anything after midnight (00:00) like 21:00 to 07:00 and 'Mon Total' goes crazy !!
At the moment 'Mon Total' is the result of CDate 'Mon Finish' - 'Mon Start' (bit rough I know).
I am trying to create a form to enter data in a table. I would like to make it pull in info from a switchboard. If the record already exists I would like it to find it and allow me to edit the info. If the record doesn't exist I would like to be able to add a new record with the data input. What is the best way to accomplish this?
I am working on school project. I created priority table that has primary key (ID number) and other data, and three tables(also with data) that are linked to this table, with ID number of priority table and primary keys of other tables (relations many-to-many, I formed tables between them).
Problem: - my solution is created so that I can fill all neccessary data of ALL tables in ONE FORM. But ofcourse Access wants you to enter at least one field in primary table for opening new record, so that It links you to all other tables (in my case with ID number) - then It is possible to enter data of all other tables in whatever tab order you like.
What I want to do is that my autonumber field from primary table would automatically open a new record number when opening the form, without entering any data to primary table. Is that even possible ?
So far I tried to add another field in my primary table (Date/time format) and set the date to =Now(), and used macro of Refresh on form, but nothing happens. Date is shown in field, but Autonumber doesn't generate new number of record. maybe I did it wrong...
Any option to lock Tab order and force user to fullfill data only in desiring order ? I want to make solution more user friendly
I have a ms access application in Front End and linked tables to sql server 2008 r2 in back end.. every time I open my application the linked tables ask to me for the user and password of the sql server user of the odbc conection. I want to connect to my sql database without login every time the user open the application, I know that can be possible if I start session from vba code...
I am trying to create a user form with sub form using the form wizard. I have only 2 tables, Employee (main table) and Vacation (subform table). I pick the fields from Employee Table then fields fro Vacation, but the wizard treat the Vacation as main form and Employee as sub form.
What I would like to do is create a list box that will only display the information from another form that is related to the current form.So I have a form call Equipment Catalog and that form is related to Equipment features 1 to M relationship and the Equipment Features is related to a Features form M to 1.
So what I want to do is display all the related equipment features in a listbox that is related to the current PK of that form.So if there is only one feature on one form the list box will only display that one item however is there is 6 features on another it will display all 6.I have been trying SQL and Queries but I still can't get it to work.
The user will be creating a new project that contains a bunch of releases. The releases have standard names which are stored in a table tbl_ReleaseNames It should be noted that the list of names is not static.
The user selects which of the releases pertains to their project and then based on their selections, new records would be created in tbl_RFP_Release and then a subsequent form would open where it would display each of these newly created releases where they could enter additional information. I thought of creating an unbound checkbox associated with each of the standard names, and then checking to see if the checkbox was checked and then creating the new records followed by opening up the new form.
I've built a PostgreSQL database for some ecology data and am trying to use MS Access 2010 to make a front-end for it.
I've created a form to display site data; it includes such fields as site ID, site name, county, state, landscape, etc. (There are more, but if I can get the idea down with a couple of these, I should be good to handle the rest). One can click through the form and see 14 pages of site details, which is fine because there are 14 sites.
What I want to do now is make a search form in which one can enter values for site ID, site name, county, etc, and somehow get the pages of the display form that match those values. It's not terribly important to me how that output looks - whether it's a list of matches that allows for clicking on a match and showing just one page of the display form, or whether it's a filtered subset of the display form pages that one still clicks through to view them all.
if there is code to write, where do I type it? Do I start my search form by making a form with the search fields as values, or is there some other way? How do I make those search fields into search boxes rather than display boxes?
Is it possible to create a form and vb procedure within that particular form (ie. an OnClose event)?
Code:
Function CreateForm() Dim Form as Form set Form = CreateForm frm.Caption = "MyNewForm" frm.Recordsource = "Stuff" 'Do other stuff to form, save and close, open form again [Forms]![MyNewForm].OnClose = 'insert sub and/or call to procedure (if possible, haven't been successful yet) End Function
