I have a database that deals with rented movies. I want a means in Access to enable the stock values of the movie to be updated whenever there is an order for a certain film and whenever its returned. I am not sure if an update query or a macro is needed for this to work and how each would work.
View RepliesI have a customer table with all the usual customer details (customer ID, name, address etc...), a transaction table (Transaction ID, Order Number, Customer ID, Title ID, Date, Status (order received, payment taken, ready for dispatch etc...)), and i have a Title table (Title ID, Artist ID, Name, Record Label, Quantity, etc...)
what would be the easiest way to update the title table everytime a new transaction was added to tblTransaction so that the quantity field in tblTitle would go down by one for the right title?
Hi,
I have a client who needs to build kits out items in his stock. So far I have a form where he can link the kit id to part id's. On the same form I have a text box which he can type in the kit id, then there is a list box which shows the parts linked to this kit, the list box shows the partid, part no and how many are in stock. I then have a text box which he can type in how many kits he wants to build. What I'm having trouble with is how to create an update query which will loop through the list box and adjust the stock to match whatever amount of kits he wants to build. So if he chooses to build one kit then one item will be added to the kit id and one will be taken away from all the parts in the list box linked to the kit id. I've searched this forum and can't quite find anything that will do this.
Thanks
basically, im making a stock control database
i've made an update query but its not exactly what i wanted
is there a way to make the criteria equal a particular form field because i dont want the user to type in the stock ref in a parameter query.
also, how do i make it so no orders can be made on stock which has stock levels of 0 and have a message saying it is out of stock
at the moment, i put >0 in the criteria underneath no in stock field in the update query
i hope i made it clear because im not sure how to explain it
thanks for any help

I'm trying to refine my Invoice system, although i'd love to update my Stock table with the 'Invoiced amount'.
I select the StockID (or in this case 'UniformID') using a lookup. My thoughts are how best to update the stock quantity after this invoice is issued.
Here's one way i've been thinking... Could i use the AfterUpdate event of the UniformID to run an update query? But would that be wise?
Here's the screen dump of what i'm developing...
I have an order form with an order details sub form. Both are bound to their respective tables and function correctly, with the OrderID being inserted automatically into the order details table.
However I am using VBA to update and check stock and have it working when attached to a separate form called process orders. Which event would be the best place to place this code. I do not really want to have the process orders form. Would it be on the master form or the sub form. I thought of placing it in the after insert event on the subform, but there can be many order items per order and it will run before I have finished adding order items. I tried it in the after insert event on the master form, but I think that this will run the code too soon as at this stage the order details will not have been written to that table.
I have a form which has a list of stock we have available to sell. I can then create an invoice and put in the relevant details. I then can select a product and it will add it to the invoice (which is in the form of a subform). Then the user confirms the quantity of each product. This is where the problems start....
I want an update query which will subtract the quantity from the overall stock level and give me the new stock level. This is easy to do if the invoice is for only 1 product. But I it doesn't work if there is more than one product in the invoice. If the first product has a quantity of 2 being bought, it will subtract 2 for every product.
Hi
I am a relatively new user to access and wondered if you could help me with a stock control problem.
I have created an update query (qryUpdateQuantityinStock) with the below fields:
QuantityinStock
tblProduct
Update: [QuantityinStock]-Forms!frmCustomerOrder![frmProductOrderLine Subform].Form!Quantity
ProductNumber
tblPrdocut
Criteria: [Forms]![frmCustomerOrder]![frmProductOrderLine Subform].[Form]![ProductNumber]
When the user enters the quantity they require into the orders form I would like to deduct it from the quantityinstock field in the products table.
The above query does work if you add the following code to the beforeupdate event of the orders subform:
If Me.NewRecord Then
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.openquery "qryupdateQuantityinStock"
DoCmd. Setwarnings True
End If
Although I wanted the query to run from a button (confirm order) on the order form so that the user decides when to deduct the stock.
I cannot put a button onto the orders subfrom where the query should run from and if I place the code on a button on the main orders form it only deducts one order (one product) and not all products on the order.
Can you help me find a way to run the query from a button?
I have read through the threads and found lots of information on stock control, although have not yet found anything similar to this problem. I understand that this is not the correct way to do stock control, although my database is for academic purposes and only requires a simple stock control system.
Any help would be greatly appreciated (sorry for the long post!). :)
Many thanks
We have our access database with a bit of a messy structure?
We use our database to record sizes of our product. I am hoping to improve it by adding the items we have in stock to prevent manufacturing more.
Basically our main database called "Make & Model 1" has a list of various makes and model numbers, each model number lists various information needed to manufacture a replacement part.
Customers order the part and these part details are entered into a table called "Order Detail" What I would like to happen is that when the details are entered a calculated field adds the data entered to a text string. I need to match the text string to the same text string in a table called "stock" as there could be one part that matches hundreds of models.
Basically the "profile" "Colour" "height" and "width" make the string and this is what I need to match and tick a box / populate the number of items in stock. Eventually I would like this to reduce by the amount ordered but lets do one step at a time.
I am using Access 2010
Access doesn't seem to recognize the values in a table I am updating. I am using an update query to revise prices in a column Titled "Price". I am comparing the prices in the Price column to the prices in another column with a simple IIF statement (i.e., IIF([Price]=[Column2Price],"Yes","No"). However, oddly, the formula produces a "No" result, even when the prices are plainly the same values, and all formatting for both columns is the same. Whenever I manually type over the price with the same value, the formula works and Access seems to work as intended. For example, I simply type "12.95" over the same value that is displaying in the column that I updated that is already showing "12.95". Then, after I do that, the formula works and produces a "Yes" value.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query with an INNER JOIN and ORDER BY that is working great. Now, using the same JOIN, I need to update values in one table with the values in another. I thought it would be simple until I learned you can't do an ORDER BY with an UPDATE. Is there another way to achieve the same result? If you remove the 'ORDER BY', the statement below doesn't produce an error but the results are not correct:
UPDATE TableA INNER JOIN TableB ON (Left(TableA.CDN,6))=(TableB.CDN)
SET TableA.HCC = TableB.HCC
WHERE TableB.HCC Like '241*' AND TableB.BBB = 'X' AND TableA.CCC = "1234" AND TableA.HCC IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY TableB.HCC, TableA.CDN;
I need a basic Product database that allows you to have a drop down menu to select a product from a table. In turn this puts the unit price in for you, you then put the quantity in and it calculates the total.
I also have a stock control. When one is bought it takes the quantity down. Very simple I know but I can’t get it to work….
If there are any good basic database templates i could use let me know
I have attached a sample zip file

I have an access database, with around 36000 records. In one table, I need to add something to the values already in the field. Like:
Value in field:
image1.gif
image2.jpg
and so on
I need to change this value to:
images/image1.gif
images/image2.jpg
and so on for all the records.
There are 3 fields like this, each with around 30000 records.
Is there an easy way to do this? Other than copy the images ?
Thanks
I am developing an access db where employees are allowed to load tools from a tool store.
I have three tables: tblEmployee, tblTool, tblOnLoan.
tblTool includes a field "QtyOnHand" which is the quantity of a particular tool in store available to be loaned.
tblOnLoan is used to record which employee has what tools on loan.
When an employee loans a tool i need to be able to reduce the QtyOnHand of the tool and record the loan details in tblOnLoan.
When the employee returns the tool i need to increas the QtyOnHand of the tool and record the return against the original loan in tblOnLoan.
i have not yet been able to work out how to reduce or increase the QtyOnHand as tools are loaned or returned.
Can anyone please help?

I am importing an Ascii text file with decimal numbers ie (144392.26). the receiving field is defined as double with decimals set to auto. I have tried many other formats such as fixed 2 decimals, or Currency 2 decimals. In all cases the data has changed from its original value to 144392.265625 which of course rounds to 144392.27 on all reports. If I use a link to the same Ascii file the data retains its original value when it is appended to an empty table. But ... When I try to use that correct value in the appended table to update another table it again converts the amount to multiple decimals and may increase by more than .01.
Is there away around this problem.

Hi folks
I have what I reckon is a complex problem that I need to solve for my warehouse.
We hold replacement parts for the machines we sell. Some parts can be subsititued for others, so where we possible we use these parts to simplify our warehousing. Every day we get a file with demand for each part in and we look to see where we could move this demand to for those parts with a common alternative. When we find one we remove the demand from that part in the database and add it to the demand for the common part.
In operational terms we upload the demand file (.xls) to a table of the following structure
Date_added - Date
Part_number - Text
QTY - number
Thus the table holds daily demand by part. What I would like to do is use a update query to:
a) Identify the parts that have common parts to which they can be moved.
b) Add that demand to that of the common part today.
c) remove it from the original part (set to zero).
Idenitfying the parts and restricting to todays date is not a problem, however the additions and deletions are.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!
I have a textbox on my main form that calculates the total of a field on the sub-form. It works well and display the correct ammount on the textbox when I load up the form, but if I do changes the values of the sub-form it doesn't update at all ! I need to close and open the form again to see the changes.
How can I update the textbox so it always reflect the values on the sub-form?
I have a combo box linked to table shipstatus. This table has 2 columns. ShipCode and ShipName. These values are delivered, on hand, received, returned, warehouse.

I'm making a very basic sales system for my school project and I'm currently working on the stock management part, as I said it's very basic.
My task -When the user receives a stock delivery they need to update the stock numbers. the value they need to update is the StockNumber value in the Products table. to so this I want to make a form that displays all the product names in a table with a textbox or cell next to it in which the user can enter the amount of that item that has been delivered. And at the bottom of the form there is a button which will add all these new values to the existing values.
1. There is no set number of products, the user is able to add new ones, this is preventing me from just making a separate textbox for each existing product
2. I have attached a jpeg I made in paint to illustrate how I want to the form to work as well as my system as it currently stands, there are a few unused forms and queries.
