Auto-adjust inventory

[dkubiak]

I have an inventory managment database with a query that pulls up parts by part number and displays inventory levels. I would like to have a command button for "Issued" and one for "Received". A text box would pop up, and if, for example, I hit "Issued", then typed "2" into the box, then "2" would be added to my "On Hand Quantity" field automatically.

I also need to track usage data. So, when that 2 is added, I would like the 2 to be stored in a seperate data along with the part number and date.

I know I am asking a lot, so anything you can offer would be great.

You got two choice, the first one is to separate you description table and have a table that will record any transaction, like a bank account to keep a trace and than sort the info. Or you can modify each time the information in you description Item, but for that you will need some VB Code to produce the trace information..

Good luck
