This is very frustrating... figured out my error but still same results 0
below is what I got:

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7]
FROM [COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]=[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #];

this is the "first half" I named it test. Here are the results (no balances
pulled)

here is the other query:

Same results big old 0

Annoying... The way to get around that issue is to change the name of [PART
#] in the source query to something like [PART Num]...

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #],[COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME],[BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7] FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN
[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART#]);

The query "first half" that you suggest above won't work, giving me an error
that the [beginning inventory balance 8th].[part #] can refer to more than
one table in my from statement.

Daryl S said:

Lmiller -

This should be easy - it works fine on my machine. Anyway, here is another
thing to try. Join only the [COMBINED PARTS] and the [BEGINNING INVENTORY
BALANCE 8TH] sources like this:

You should have the END BALANCE 7 column filled where there is data.

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]);

Now join that query with the [INVENTORY RD 8TH] like this (change the [FIRST
HALF] to the name you gave the query above:

SELECT [FIRST HALF].[PART #], [FIRST HALF].[PART NAME], [FIRST HALFH].[END
BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM [FIRST HALF] LEFT JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [FIRST HALF].[PART #] =
[INVENTORY RD 8TH].[PART #];

Same results. it's just not combining the balances or giving me any of the
balances. I know there probably is an easy solution to this, seems like it's
just a matter of comparing part #s if they are the same add the two balances
together if not just list.....

:

LMiller -

OK, let's try something else. In your source query (and in the final
query), change the [END BALANCE 8] to something like [END_BALANCE_8]. Run
each and see what you get.

Daryl S

:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

Yes Daryl, notice above, this is the result from running my 8th term. I do
have balances. You are coming up with the same conclusion I have. No matter
what I have tried my 8th term isn't pulling.

:

LMiller -

Progress! I think I see values for END BALANCE 7 (the 27 and the null),
and the sums, but nothing for the END BALANCE 8. I would check the source
query to see if you really have something in [END BALANCE 8]. Maybe there is
a typo? The query is pulling the correct records, and you are getting one
from each of the source records, but the [END BALANCE 8] is not coming
through. Can you check your [INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] query to make sure you
are getting data in the [END BALANCE 8] column?

--
Daryl S

:

Tried what you suggested, this is what it comes up as now in SQL

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [INVENTORY RD
8TH].[PART #];

Now the query only list the part #'s that were in my 8th term with the 7th
term balance

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27 27
1234 test 0

what happened to all my other part # and their balances?

:

Lmiller -

Are you building this final query in design mode? That should make it easy.
Add the three source queries. You will need to adjust the joins by
double-clicking on them, and selecting the "All from COMBINED" option for the
joins between the COMBINED query and the other two sources. Delete any join
between the other two queries.

Then, add the fields to the query grid by double-clicking on the [PART #]
and [PART NAME] fields in the COMBINED query. Then add the [END BALANCE 7]
and [END BALANCE 8] fields in the same manner. Finally, in the last column,
type in:

SUM OF BALANCES: =nz([END BALANCE 7],0) + nz([END BALANCE 8],0)

I want to thank anyone in advance for any insight into this. I have posted
this question a couple of times and have been working on developing this
query for 2 weeks and to no avial. I have a query that list my 7th term
inventory balances as:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 7

[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7] AS [END BALANCE 7]
FROM [INVENTORY RD 7th]
WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0));

my 8th term inventory balances as follows:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

SELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME],
[inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

I am trying to combine the 2 queries into 1 so that all part #'s list and if
they are like part # to list on just one line. Also I would like the
balances from each term to be added together. I made a union query for the
Part # and name and it works great. I am trying to get the balances now to
add or display correctly.

Here is what I have come up with thus far :

It is NOT pulling my 8th term inventory balance. Yes the query for it
works as a stand alone and I get my data
The data you posted showed NO DATA for END BALANCE 8 at all.

I see an error in the union query --
[INVENTORY RD 8TH]/[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

There should be a period instead of a slash in [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END
BALANCE 8] to make it work.

I want to thank anyone in advance for any insight into this. I have posted
this question a couple of times and have been working on developing this
query for 2 weeks and to no avial. I have a query that list my 7th term
inventory balances as:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 7
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 93

SELECT [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART #], [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART NAME],
[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7] AS [END BALANCE 7]
FROM [INVENTORY RD 7th]
WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0));

my 8th term inventory balances as follows:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

SELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME],
[inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

I am trying to combine the 2 queries into 1 so that all part #'s list and if
they are like part # to list on just one line. Also I would like the
balances from each term to be added together. I made a union query for the
Part # and name and it works great. I am trying to get the balances now to
add or display correctly.

Here is what I have come up with thus far :

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES

[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] & [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [inventory rd 8th] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]=[inventory rd 8th].[PART
#];
Everything I have tried doesn't produce the balances. Any suggestion or
ideas. Maybe I need a whole different query than the one I have come up
with, I have played with many but as I said to no avail.

do I need an if statement in there? if ([inventory rd 7].[part #] =
[inventory rd 8].[part #] than add the 2 balances together?

KARL DEWEY said:

The data you posted showed NO DATA for END BALANCE 8 at all.

I see an error in the union query --
[INVENTORY RD 8TH]/[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

There should be a period instead of a slash in [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END
BALANCE 8] to make it work.

i keep playing with these queries.... very frustrating... i changed what you
suggested just to see what would happen I put in the 8th term items first
in your query to combine with the 7th Now when I run all I get is the
8th term data and no 7th. It has to be in the way they are joined.

I am trying to combine the 2 queries into 1 so that all part #'s list and if
they are like part # to list on just one line. Also I would like the
balances from each term to be added together. I made a union query for the
Part # and name and it works great. I am trying to get the balances now to
add or display correctly.

Here is what I have come up with thus far :

Everything I have tried doesn't produce the balances. Any suggestion or
ideas. Maybe I need a whole different query than the one I have come up
with, I have played with many but as I said to no avail.
THANKS!!!

The problem has to be with [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH]. What do you
get when you run this:

SELECT * from [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH]?

Lmiller -

This should be easy - it works fine on my machine. Anyway, here is another
thing to try. Join only the [COMBINED PARTS] and the [BEGINNING INVENTORY
BALANCE 8TH] sources like this:

You should have the END BALANCE 7 column filled where there is data.

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]);

Now join that query with the [INVENTORY RD 8TH] like this (change the [FIRST
HALF] to the name you gave the query above:

SELECT [FIRST HALF].[PART #], [FIRST HALF].[PART NAME], [FIRST HALFH].[END
BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]

Same results. it's just not combining the balances or giving me any of the
balances. I know there probably is an easy solution to this, seems like it's
just a matter of comparing part #s if they are the same add the two balances
together if not just list.....

:

LMiller -

OK, let's try something else. In your source query (and in the final
query), change the [END BALANCE 8] to something like [END_BALANCE_8]. Run
each and see what you get.

Yes Daryl, notice above, this is the result from running my 8th term. I do
have balances. You are coming up with the same conclusion I have. No matter
what I have tried my 8th term isn't pulling.

LMiller -

Progress! I think I see values for END BALANCE 7 (the 27 and the null),
and the sums, but nothing for the END BALANCE 8. I would check the source
query to see if you really have something in [END BALANCE 8]. Maybe there is
a typo? The query is pulling the correct records, and you are getting one
from each of the source records, but the [END BALANCE 8] is not coming
through. Can you check your [INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] query to make sure you
are getting data in the [END BALANCE 8] column?

Tried what you suggested, this is what it comes up as now in SQL

what happened to all my other part # and their balances?

Lmiller -

Are you building this final query in design mode? That should make it easy.
Add the three source queries. You will need to adjust the joins by
double-clicking on them, and selecting the "All from COMBINED" option for the
joins between the COMBINED query and the other two sources. Delete any join
between the other two queries.

Then, add the fields to the query grid by double-clicking on the [PART #]
and [PART NAME] fields in the COMBINED query. Then add the [END BALANCE 7]
and [END BALANCE 8] fields in the same manner. Finally, in the last column,
type in:

SUM OF BALANCES: =nz([END BALANCE 7],0) + nz([END BALANCE 8],0)

I get the 8th term balances as they should be. I could be wrong but I have
been playing with these and I think it's in the way they are joined. I
reversed the query a little bit and put the 8th term items first than the 7th
term. Now all the 8th term balances come up but no 7th. I am not familar
with "if" statments but seems like if the the 7th and 8th part # are =
than they need to be added together if not than their balances should
just list. If I run just the part # and names together in a combined query
they combine just great when i try to add the balances it gets all
confused......I put the 7th term balance in SQL first it pulls just those
items if I put the 8th first it just pulls those items. i know this is
hard trying to relay.

The problem has to be with [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH]. What do you
get when you run this:

SELECT * from [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH]?

Annoying... The way to get around that issue is to change the name of [PART
#] in the source query to something like [PART Num]...

--
Daryl S

:

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #],[COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME],[BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7] FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN
[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART#]);

The query "first half" that you suggest above won't work, giving me an error
that the [beginning inventory balance 8th].[part #] can refer to more than
one table in my from statement.
:

Lmiller -

This should be easy - it works fine on my machine. Anyway, here is another
thing to try. Join only the [COMBINED PARTS] and the [BEGINNING INVENTORY
BALANCE 8TH] sources like this:

You should have the END BALANCE 7 column filled where there is data.

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]);

Now join that query with the [INVENTORY RD 8TH] like this (change the [FIRST
HALF] to the name you gave the query above:

SELECT [FIRST HALF].[PART #], [FIRST HALF].[PART NAME], [FIRST HALFH].[END
BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM [FIRST HALF] LEFT JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [FIRST HALF].[PART #] =
[INVENTORY RD 8TH].[PART #];

Same results. it's just not combining the balances or giving me any of the
balances. I know there probably is an easy solution to this, seems like it's
just a matter of comparing part #s if they are the same add the two balances
together if not just list.....

:

LMiller -

OK, let's try something else. In your source query (and in the final
query), change the [END BALANCE 8] to something like [END_BALANCE_8]. Run
each and see what you get.

Daryl S

:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8

Yes Daryl, notice above, this is the result from running my 8th term. I do
have balances. You are coming up with the same conclusion I have. No matter
what I have tried my 8th term isn't pulling.

:

LMiller -

Progress! I think I see values for END BALANCE 7 (the 27 and the null),
and the sums, but nothing for the END BALANCE 8. I would check the source
query to see if you really have something in [END BALANCE 8]. Maybe there is
a typo? The query is pulling the correct records, and you are getting one
from each of the source records, but the [END BALANCE 8] is not coming
through. Can you check your [INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] query to make sure you
are getting data in the [END BALANCE 8] column?

--
Daryl S

Tried what you suggested, this is what it comes up as now in SQL

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]

[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [INVENTORY RD
8TH].[PART #];

Now the query only list the part #'s that were in my 8th term with the 7th
term balance

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27 27
1234 test 0

what happened to all my other part # and their balances?

:

Lmiller -

Are you building this final query in design mode? That should make it easy.
Add the three source queries. You will need to adjust the joins by
double-clicking on them, and selecting the "All from COMBINED" option for the
joins between the COMBINED query and the other two sources. Delete any join
between the other two queries.

Then, add the fields to the query grid by double-clicking on the [PART #]
and [PART NAME] fields in the COMBINED query. Then add the [END BALANCE 7]
and [END BALANCE 8] fields in the same manner. Finally, in the last column,
type in:

SUM OF BALANCES: =nz([END BALANCE 7],0) + nz([END BALANCE 8],0)

Lmiller -

I understand what you are saying about the need to add the values only if
they both exist, but we resolve that issue by using the nz(value,0), which
gives a zero to the columns that have no data, allowing them to be added to
the columns with data. It works on my machine, giving me these results (I am
adding spaces so they line up visually):

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" Long" 27 2 29
1234 TEST 1 1 1

Notice there is no END BALANCE 7 for TEST 1, but the SUM OF BALANCES comes
out right because of the nz function. So we don't have to worry about adding
only when they both exist - we assign any that don't exist a zero in the sum
calculation.

What we have to fix the problem with the [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH]
query. Can you please post that SQL? I know running it stand-alone gives
you correct answers, but please post a few of those records also.

Annoying... The way to get around that issue is to change the name of [PART
#] in the source query to something like [PART Num]...

Daryl S

:

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #],[COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME],[BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7] FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN
[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART#]);

The query "first half" that you suggest above won't work, giving me an error
that the [beginning inventory balance 8th].[part #] can refer to more than
one table in my from statement.
:

Lmiller -

This should be easy - it works fine on my machine. Anyway, here is another
thing to try. Join only the [COMBINED PARTS] and the [BEGINNING INVENTORY
BALANCE 8TH] sources like this:

You should have the END BALANCE 7 column filled where there is data.

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]);

Now join that query with the [INVENTORY RD 8TH] like this (change the [FIRST
HALF] to the name you gave the query above:

SELECT [FIRST HALF].[PART #], [FIRST HALF].[PART NAME], [FIRST HALFH].[END
BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM [FIRST HALF] LEFT JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [FIRST HALF].[PART #] =
[INVENTORY RD 8TH].[PART #];

Same results. it's just not combining the balances or giving me any of the
balances. I know there probably is an easy solution to this, seems like it's
just a matter of comparing part #s if they are the same add the two balances
together if not just list.....

:

LMiller -

OK, let's try something else. In your source query (and in the final
query), change the [END BALANCE 8] to something like [END_BALANCE_8]. Run
each and see what you get.

--
Daryl S

:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

Yes Daryl, notice above, this is the result from running my 8th term. I do
have balances. You are coming up with the same conclusion I have. No matter
what I have tried my 8th term isn't pulling.

:

LMiller -

Progress! I think I see values for END BALANCE 7 (the 27 and the null),
and the sums, but nothing for the END BALANCE 8. I would check the source
query to see if you really have something in [END BALANCE 8]. Maybe there is
a typo? The query is pulling the correct records, and you are getting one
from each of the source records, but the [END BALANCE 8] is not coming
through. Can you check your [INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] query to make sure you
are getting data in the [END BALANCE 8] column?

--
Daryl S

:

Tried what you suggested, this is what it comes up as now in SQL

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [INVENTORY RD
8TH].[PART #];

Now the query only list the part #'s that were in my 8th term with the 7th
term balance

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27 27
1234 test 0

what happened to all my other part # and their balances?

:

Lmiller -

Are you building this final query in design mode? That should make it easy.
Add the three source queries. You will need to adjust the joins by
double-clicking on them, and selecting the "All from COMBINED" option for the
joins between the COMBINED query and the other two sources. Delete any join
between the other two queries.

Then, add the fields to the query grid by double-clicking on the [PART #]
and [PART NAME] fields in the COMBINED query. Then add the [END BALANCE 7]
and [END BALANCE 8] fields in the same manner. Finally, in the last column,
type in:

SUM OF BALANCES: =nz([END BALANCE 7],0) + nz([END BALANCE 8],0)

I want to thank anyone in advance for any insight into this. I have posted
this question a couple of times and have been working on developing this
query for 2 weeks and to no avial. I have a query that list my 7th term
inventory balances as:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 7
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 93
11515781 GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY STEERING FIXING BOLT 25
11588324 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M10X1.5) 172
11588325 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M12X1.75) 55

SELECT [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART #], [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART NAME],
[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7] AS [END BALANCE 7]
FROM [INVENTORY RD 7th]
WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0));

my 8th term inventory balances as follows:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

SELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME],
[inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

I am trying to combine the 2 queries into 1 so that all part #'s list and if
they are like part # to list on just one line. Also I would like the
balances from each term to be added together. I made a union query for the
Part # and name and it works great. I am trying to get the balances now to
add or display correctly.

Here is what I have come up with thus far :

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 0
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 0

11589252 GMT319 L4 BOLT 0
1234 test 0

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([inventory rd
8th].[END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] & [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [inventory rd 8th] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]=[inventory rd 8th].[PART
#];
Everything I have tried doesn't produce the balances. Any suggestion or
ideas. Maybe I need a whole different query than the one I have come up
with, I have played with many but as I said to no avail.
THANKS!!!

Karl,

Is this suppose to be one long query or 2 separate? the semi-colon was in
the first because I thought it was the end of the query and developed a 2nd
as that is how your example said. when I take it out and rerun it comes
back as it is the end of the first query.

John Vinson actually caught this error - change the ampersand to an equal
sign in the first join. Try this:

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([inventory rd
8th].[END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [inventory rd 8th] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]=[inventory rd 8th].[PART
#];

I want to thank anyone in advance for any insight into this. I have posted
this question a couple of times and have been working on developing this
query for 2 weeks and to no avial. I have a query that list my 7th term
inventory balances as:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 7
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 93
11515781 GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY STEERING FIXING BOLT 25
11588324 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M10X1.5) 172
11588325 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M12X1.75) 55

SELECT [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART #], [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART NAME],
[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7] AS [END BALANCE 7]
FROM [INVENTORY RD 7th]
WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0));

my 8th term inventory balances as follows:

PART # PRODUCT DESCRIPTION END BALANCE 8
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 2
1234 test 1

SELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME],
[inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

I am trying to combine the 2 queries into 1 so that all part #'s list and if
they are like part # to list on just one line. Also I would like the
balances from each term to be added together. I made a union query for the
Part # and name and it works great. I am trying to get the balances now to
add or display correctly.

Here is what I have come up with thus far :

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 SUM OF BALANCES
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 0
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 0
11515781 GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY STEERING FIXING BOLT 0
11588324 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M10X1.5) 0
11588325 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M12X1.75) 0
11589252 GMT319 L4 BOLT 0
1234 test 0

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8],
nz([BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7],0)+nz([inventory rd
8th].[END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([COMBINED PARTS] LEFT JOIN [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] ON
[COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] & [BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #]) LEFT
JOIN [inventory rd 8th] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]=[inventory rd 8th].[PART
#];
Everything I have tried doesn't produce the balances. Any suggestion or
ideas. Maybe I need a whole different query than the one I have come up
with, I have played with many but as I said to no avail.
THANKS!!!

Sorry I know you are and I do greatly appreciate all your time and
effort!!!!! I didn't mean to come across so bad....just getting frustrated.

KARL DEWEY · Feb 16, 2010

A union query combines more than one query into a single SQL statement that
can not be viewed in design view.
All fields from the different parts must match in datatype and number of
fields. That is why I put an [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8] in the 7
part and vice a versus.

Karl,

Is this suppose to be one long query or 2 separate? the semi-colon was in
the first because I thought it was the end of the query and developed a 2nd
as that is how your example said. when I take it out and rerun it comes
back as it is the end of the first query.

KARL DEWEY said:

I just noticed you put a semicolon at the end of the firt part of the union
query.

i keep playing with these queries.... very frustrating... i changed what you
suggested just to see what would happen I put in the 8th term items first
in your query to combine with the 7th Now when I run all I get is the
8th term data and no 7th. It has to be in the way they are joined.

:

It is NOT pulling my 8th term inventory balance. Yes the query for it
works as a stand alone and I get my data
The data you posted showed NO DATA for END BALANCE 8 at all.

I see an error in the union query --
[INVENTORY RD 8TH]/[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

There should be a period instead of a slash in [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END
BALANCE 8] to make it work.

Karl,

I tried these queries again see below:

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8

11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 93 0

11589252 GMT319 L4 BOLT 6 0
15226899-03-01 BODY MOUNT FRT LWR LH 14 0

SQL is:

SELECT [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART #], [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART NAME],
[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7], 0 AS [END BALANCE 8]
FROM [INVENTORY RD 7th]
WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0))
UNION SELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME], 0
AS [END BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH]/[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

the 2nd query is as:

PART # PART NAME END BALANCE 7 END BALANCE 8 FINAL BALANCE
1018 "OD 12.7MM X 24"" LONG" 27 0 27
11509671 BOLT-METRIX HEX FLANGE 93 0 93

11588325 NUT WELD HEX FLANGE (M12X1.75) 55 0 55

sql is as follows:
SELECT [PART #],[PART NAME],[END BALANCE 7],[END BALANCE 8], SUM(nz([END
BALANCE 7],0) + nz([END BALANCE 8],0)) AS [FINAL BALANCE]
FROM [FINAL BALANCE]
GROUP BY [PART #],[PART NAME],[END BALANCE 7],[END BALANCE 8]

I keep having the same trouble, It is NOT pulling my 8th term inventory
balance. Yes the query for it works as a stand alone and I get my data but
when I try to combine the 7 and 8th nothing seems to work.

:

Try these queries --
qryINVENTORY_RD_7_8
SELECT [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART #], [INVENTORY RD 7th].[PART NAME],
[INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7], 0 AS [END BALANCE 8]

WHERE ((([INVENTORY RD 7th].[END BALANCE 7])>0));
UNION ALLSELECT [inventory rd 8th].[PART #], [inventory rd 8th].[PART NAME],
0 AS [END BALANCE 7], [inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8]
FROM [inventory rd 8th]
WHERE ((([inventory rd 8th].[END BALANCE 8])>0));

SELECT [PART #], [PART NAME], [END BALANCE 7], [END BALANCE 8], Sum(Nz([END
BALANCE 7], 0) + Nz([END BALANCE 8], 0)) AS Combined_Balance
FROM qryINVENTORY_RD_7_8
GROUP BY [PART #], [PART NAME], [END BALANCE 7], [END BALANCE 8];

:

[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART#] = [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]) RIGHT

8TH].[PART #];

I am trying but it keeps giving me an error on the [BEGINNING INVENTORY
BALANCE 8TH].[PART #] can refer to more than one table in my SQL
statement......

:

Lmiller -

Try this one (I switched the outer joins to a way I am more used to - it
works in my db):

SELECT [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #], [COMBINED PARTS].[PART NAME], [BEGINNING
INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[END BALANCE 7], [INVENTORY RD 8TH].[END BALANCE 8],
NZ([END BALANCE 7],0)+NZ([END BALANCE 8],0) AS [SUM OF BALANCES]
FROM ([BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH] RIGHT JOIN [COMBINED PARTS] ON
[BEGINNING INVENTORY BALANCE 8TH].[PART #] = [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #]) RIGHT
JOIN [INVENTORY RD 8TH] ON [COMBINED PARTS].[PART #] = [INVENTORY RD
8TH].[PART #];
