Hi all. I am looking for a formula to calculate a commission, based on the total sales price. The commission is a sliding scale. Ex. if sale price is 200 or less, commission = 30%; if sale price is 201-500, commission = 25% on 201-500 & 30% of 1st 200; if sale price is 501-1000, commission = 20% on 501-1000, 25% of 201-500 & 30% of 1st 200; if sale price is 1001+, commission = 15% on 1001+, 20% on 501-1000, 25% on 201-500, & 30% on 1st 200. Does that make sense? In other words, if sale price is 300, I want commission to be 30% of 200 + 25% of 100, which = 85. Is there a way to write this in one formula?
I have a question I need help for, below is a very strict detailed explination of the current scenario I am in and I need assistance for it:
1) I have a percentage of Commission I need to calculate, the percentage of commission constitudes of the following information:
a) Date, b) Customer Name, c) Company, d) Name, e) 5% New, f) 3% Ext, g) Rep, h) Doble Ref (0.025, 0.015), i) Total Amount, and j) Total of Commission.
If a person enters the same customer name more than ones, it will give that person's name a Doble ref (0.015) of commission, if on the other hand that customer is new it will give that person a commision of 0.05% new. I hope this is not intending to confuse you, it just gives the general idea of what the percentage of commission is intended to be.
To come back to the point, I have a form created under Access that holds all the names of the person's reference by in that case "Name" letter (d) described above. If I select for example a person name "Fahed" and I click on the button calculate new commission I want to be able to draw all the commissions that Fahed have done and then use the form above to do the approriate calculation.
The above is a general problem, below is the scenario:
I get a form called New Client, the form New Client is a parent form and underneath that form is a sub form which holds estimates, invoices and so on. Ones again I am giving you the picture of what the form looks like, I cannot paste the pictures here because they would take time and would not be clear. The new Client has a text field called Reference By. That text field is where I need to get for the Percentage of Commission form to be entered under the field Name, letter D (described above). The total of amount is extracted from the subform Invoice, total, of the parent form called New Client, and there is a check mark in the new client called "Already existed" that if I click it, that information is then send on a separate form called "PercentageOfCommission" that will determine if it calculates the percentag of 0.05 or 0.025 depending if it is Calculate Commission or calculate existing commission.
I want it to be able then to do the needed calculation which I already have the approriate formula for and then display in a report what is shown above.
I don't know how to get information from different forms, and I don't know how to display for example ALL FAHEDS with information but are related only to FAHED.
Ones again, let me give you an example: Date Name Info 15-Feb 05 Fahed Stonyx 15-Mar 05 Fahed Commodore ... 18-Sep 05 Ahmed Apple IIc
I want to display only one name Fahed and when I click for example display summary to show ALLLL the name that holds Fahed that have different Info. Any help would be greatly appreciate it.

sales target table = allows collection of employee sales figures in order to work out commission. Fields included are target, date, sales achived and commission allocation %. This info will be entered via a query below.
i need to create a query that allows entry of employees sales targets, sales achived, commission % and calculates the amount of commission due.
I will have an employee form where I want a subform to allow entry & calculations of employee commission.
I have at least 200 excel spreadsheets that get updated every day with closing prices of commodities. I want to run a breakout query against every spreadsheet to see if today's close is a new 20 day breakout. What is the best way to organize the access table or tables? Put all the data in one table or have separate tables for each contract and run one query against the group? I need to be able to update the tables everyday so that today's close info is included. I have a working query that works with a single dynamically linked spreadsheet to table, but I don't want to set this up for all 200 spreadsheets. Can this process be duplicated? I have tried to modify the query to run against two separate tables, but was unsuccessful. Since there are so many potential tables, if that is the best way to do it, how can you say select all tables and then run the query?
Here is the query I have written:
SELECT WZ07.Symbol, WZ07.AlphaDeliveryMonth, DateSerial(Val(Left([ddate],4)),Val(Mid([ddate],5,2)),Val(Right([ddate],2))) AS transdate, WZ07.DClose FROM WZ07 WHERE (((DateSerial(Val(Left([ddate],4)),Val(Mid([ddate],5,2)),Val(Right([ddate],2)))) Between Date()-28 And Date()-1) AND ((WZ07.DClose)=(select max([WZ07].DClose) from [WZ07])));
The WZ07 is the December Wheat contract for 2007. This is what the excel spreadsheets are named. I had to do a dateserial command to turn a number into a date(couldn't make access recognize that 20070831 was August 31,2007) All the column headings on all the spreadsheets are the same: Symbol, AlphaDeliveryMonth, DDate(transdate),Close
I know that this is both about tables and queries so I wasn't sure where to post this. Thanks for your help.
I have an Append Query that I developed and am wanting to use the SQL View statement in a piece of VBA code that I am writing. The problem is that it is not working.
Here is the SQL View when I am in Query Design View. Code:INSERT INTO tblMasterAccountList ( AccountNum, AcctName, [Account Type], [Billing Spec] )SELECT TEMPAcct.Acct, TEMPAcct.Name, TEMPAcct.Type, TEMPAcct.BillingSpecFROM TEMPAcctWHERE (((TEMPAcct.Existing)=False));
Here is the code I have in VBA... Code:Dim strSQL As StringstrSQL = "INSERT INTO tblMasterAccountList (AccountNum, AcctName, [Account Type], [Billing Spec]) "strSQL = strSQL & "SELECT TEMPAcct.Acct, TEMPAcct.Name, TEMPAcct.Type, TEMPAcct.BillingSpec "strSQL = strSQL & "FROM TEMPAcct "strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE (((TEMPAcct.Existing)=False));"DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
The code runs fine in that no errors are generated, but it does not append the records. When I run the query outside of VBA, it does append the records. Is there something special that needs to be done with an action query for the SQL statement to work in VBA?
i am relatively new to databases so this is a fairly basic question.....
I have a form. Within this form all records are locked as i do not wish users to change details. However i am told there is an option allowing the editing of existing records upon request. is this true?, as it would improve my form greatly
This report is based on a query. The query is called "Diplomas_requested_per_month". The fields in the query are: "Transcript_type" and "Request_date". In this query there is Between [Start Date] And [End Date].
I am attempted to count the number of "Official Copy" for a specified month.
I am propted to input the start date and ending date, it works great when I run the query. But in the report, I get a "#error".
I am thankful for who have responded to the previous posting of this issue, but I am completely lost.

hi i just signed up to this site and need some assisstance from someone
i need to create a form in access 97 that enables me to search for a keyword on a given search area, for example the cd/dvd rom drive for files and folders
Hi all, I am new here, I am never one to ask for help, but I am desperate to get some assistance and hoping someone may be able to help me. I have just basic knowledge of MS Access, but no where near the skills needed to acheive what I am needing. To explain, I am involved with a national memorial of all the Truck drivers who have been killed on our roads. I have a database in access, (near 1000 individuals and sadly growing) but wanting to create it into a form style. I also need to add a photograph of each deceased person and a second photograph of the plaque which they are on. Years ago I saw a form which I was impressed with, it looked so professional but never had the oportunity to investigate or disect it :)
I am hoping sks who will enjoy the challenge may be able to assist me.
more about the memorial can be seen at www.tarcuttamemorial.com Thanks Dianne
please note that I am trying to create a database regarding the inbound shipment management of a warehouse.I have the following tables that I need to link: SUPPLIERS ORDERS PRODUCTS INVOICES CASES
Every supplier has many orders.One order has one or many Products.So far is easy beacause I link them with one to many relationship.The problem is that one case has one or many invoices and each invoice has one or many orders.
So there is a conflict because the primary key of orders should be linked twice.
I need some assistance with how to use the Nz function. If you could please help me rewrite part of my SQL (shown below), I would appreciate it. I am a newbie and don't understand some of the programming syntax.
Background ----------- I have two columns, RevisedRequirement and TotalFCbyS in which I need to do some calculations and insert two new columns named Variance and VariancePct.
Issue ----- Both the RevisedRequirement and the TotalFCbyS fields can have nulls. I need to convert any instance of a null to a 0 so that I can perform the calculations and not get any error messages.
Current SQL Excerpt ------------------- This creates the Variance column: IIf(IsNull([qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement])=True Or [qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement]=0,0,([qryOpPlanForecast].[TotalFCbyS]-[qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement])) AS Variance
This creates the VariancePct column: IIf(IsNull([qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement])=True Or [qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement]=0,0,([Variance]/[qryProgramFundingAllocation].[RevisedRequirement])) AS VariancePct
The SQL shown, if I understand correctly, treats the Null as if it were a zero, but does not replace the null with a zero. Again, please help me with how to re-write the SQL so that it converts the null to zero.
I have two tables in my database. The first is a list of email addresses and the second is a much smaller list of email addresses I would like to remove from the first table. Is there a query or SQL statement that I can use to accomplish this task. Thank you from grateful Kenny.
First time poster, so I hope someone shows me the light and makes your forums shine! :)
I have a POS system that was designed in house which uses Access. I am trying to create some queries outside of the system to retrieve some data that has been being stored. I am basically wanting to know which items have been in stock for over 6 months and have never sold.
I have a query designed to show me this data for one store at a time, but nothing that shows me if an item is so poor it has never sold at any stores. This is my single store query:
SELECT Inventory_ProductTable.Artist, Inventory_ProductTable.Title, Inventory_ProductTable.Quantity, Inventory_ProductTable.Category2 FROM Inventory_ProductTable WHERE (((Inventory_ProductTable.Quantity)>0) AND ((Inventory_ProductTable.LastBuyDate)<Date()-"180") AND ((Inventory_ProductTable.masterStoreID)="CDT001") AND ((Inventory_ProductTable.DepartmentID)=1) AND ((Inventory_ProductTable.LastSaleDate)=""));
It is pulling the artist, title and category of the item out of the database to display the informtion that I am needing (for the most part). Quantity of 0 and last sale date "" basically means there is no record of it being sold, so this gives me my zero quantity sold criteria for anthing that has been in stock for 6 months or more (the last buy date criteria).
I am not sure what other info I need to provide, but I would be happy to do so. I am a n00b at this and really love to learn, so lay it on me!
I created a form using a text boxes by using the field list icon and dragging the field I wanted to make into the text box onto the form. In the properties of that text box, under the format tab I set the format for "short date". Under the data tab in the properties of the text box I put in the control source this forumla =DateSerial(Year([Date of Service]),Month([Date of Service])+10,Day([Date of Service])). "Date of Service" on my form is the name of the source field it calculates from. What the forumla does is calculates from the date entered into my Service Date field and whatever date is in that field it adds 10 months to it. This field with this formula in it caluclates the date of my contacting the customer to setup an annual service for them. I also have another field that calculates the annual service date using the same formula only changing the +10 to +12.
When the Date of Service it entered the Contact Date field automatically adds 10 months to the date entered into the Date of Service field. Same of the Date of Next Service field only instead of 10 months it adds 12. So my formulas are correct. However when I go to my table I can not see any of the caluculated dates entered into the table. I can see it in the datasheet view of my form. My question is how do I create a query to pull only contacts dates from this form for a specific time frame? When I attempt to create a query I can only see table fields which do not contain the formulas for calculating the dates. Or can the fields that calculate the dates on my form be linked so the calculated dates are linked into the table and updated on the table when I update the form?
Keep in mind I am new to access so please give very detailed and specific instructions on a solution for this issue.
I have 1 table with three columns of data (town, county, and zip). After entering the data on my form from a dropdown down box (town), which is represented by the first column of data in my table, I want Access to automatically populate the second and third boxes in my form that are representive of the second and third columns in the table, county and zip respectively.
I have a database (Access 2007) that has two tables, reports, queries and so far all seems to be working and going well. Quite impressed with it to be honest for my lack of skills.
However, I've run into a bit of trouble and need assistance getting a combo box to work with another combo box to produce list kind of thing.
The database is a vehicle database and I need the 'Vehicle' combo box to give me a list of vehicles. I then need the 'Model' combo box to produce the models of the car selected in the 'Vehicle' combo box.
Example - If I select 'Ford' from the 'Vehicle' combo box list I want all the models to be displayed in a list form thing in the 'Model' combo box so the user can easily select make and model of the car.
I have two tables: CarMM VD
The 'CarMM' table contains a list of around 1,500 records of car makes and models. First column has the 'Vehicle' make and the second field coloumn has the 'Model'.
The 'VD' table contains all other information like the charges, name, the make and model of car once selected in combo box.
I then have the form called 'VD'. In this form contains the combo boxes I want to be cascading.
Any advice on how to do this? I'm quite new to this so any help would be nice. Thanks you very much.

I have DB with a Switchboard that has a button for Bin Number (Part Number). It is based on a parameter query that asks you to input your Bin Number. Once you enter the Bin Number it pulls all information for that Bin Number from a table that contains the Bin Number, description, Manufacturer P/N and Manufacturer and shows this in the query.
What I need to do is have this information each time a different Bin Number is entered to be stored in specific table (datasheet style) for printing out just a list of specific Bin Numbers and their information. As the parameter query stands now, each time I input a different Bin Number it clears the previous information. Can I tie in a make table query in some manner that will store the selected Bin Number info?
Can someone make suggestions on the easiest and quickest way to set this up? Keep in mind I am still learning Access so please be detailed in your comments. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
I have created a query based on two akwardly designed tables that ultimately relate a member of Congress to a specific Committee and Subcommittee. Unfortunately I cannot alter the tables, as I receive weekly updates from an external source.
This being the case, once I have created the query, a "-" appears in the Subcommittee column, where the Member of Congress serves on the Committee, but no Subcommittee or the Committee does not have a Subcommittee. Although I could exclude the "-", however when I do this certain committees are removed from the final results. So I attempted creating an expression, where "<Not Assigned to a SubCommittee>" appears if the Committee does not have a SubCommittee. Unfortunately there are a few committees that fall under this. I created the following expression:
=IIf([HMC_Name]=("Committee on Budget""Committee on Standards of Official Conduct""Committee on House Administration"),"<No Subcommittee Assignment>",[HSC_Name])
Yet this expression returns #Error. Any suggestions?
Hello, My first attempt at a Crosstab query and I need some assistance with the output. The expression I use is below and it returns the correct infornmation by month, but i need the year to be included as well as the data goes back several years.

Hi, I would like to have a toggle button on my form that when clicked it changes the button colour and the button text. The toggle button doesnt have to be bound.
