[AccessD] Inventory Tracking

Check out Building Microsoft Access Applications by John L. Viescas . It has
an inventory sample app. Also I found
this:http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=4048
Actually a good inventory starter system with add on modules can be found
athttp://www.fredrickgroup.com/tfg4000/index_standard.html.  The nice thing
about this system is the backend is an open (unprotected) access DB. You can
download the trial copy and look at the table structure. HTH

Subject: [AccessD] Inventory Tracking


Does anyone have anything that would help me set up a new database for
tracking inventory? I can't seem to get it in my head how to set it up. It
should be simple, but adding to the inventory & taking out of inventory - I
am having problems with setting up the tables. This is my first inventory
tracking system.

 

There are only 3 storage locations where the inventory is kept & only 5
types of items stored. But adding and removing items, then keeping track of
the minimum inventory and the actual inventory I don't know the best way to
set up the tables.

 

I know I need a location table & a type of inventory table, but how do I
list the same items for each of the 3 locations in a table? If they add to
the inventory at a certain location on a certain date, it should add to the
actual inventory for that item and location.

 

Hope someone can help on this....
