Default 2 different Qty in order details in northwind

Hi,

im pretty new with access 2007, i decide to use northwind template.
In order detail both form, i have 2 different Qty, the original Qty is the
Qty that will link to Inventory and I add another field Qty1 for invoice
purpose. For example, I got 1 roll of tape, 1 roll will be cut into 10 pcs.
We need to bill according to customer request qty 10, but actual qty sold is
only 1. Anyone come across this issue. How to modify it w/o effect the
function?

table/form as below:-
ID
ORDER ID
PRODUCT ID
QUANTITY (FOR INVENTORY)
QTY1 (FOR INVOICE)
UNIT PRICE
AND SO ON

Is there any easy way to do? I dont know anything about macros...thanks in
advance.....coco111

Will every item in QTY be "cut into 10 pcs"?

How do you (and how does Access) know the relationship between the QTY
(as-received/Inventory) and the QTY1 (as-sold/Invoice)?

Without that information, it will be tough to set up a macro or any other
procedure to do this.

Hi Jeff,

The cutting q'ty is not fix, always change sometimes 10 pc, sometimes 20 pc,
etc.. 10 is just example... sometimes 1 rolls, cut into 100 pcs....

The relationship is as original as northwind template, I did not change any
link in relationship.

As I see, there is 3 relationship which I can see as below:-

In order details table
Product ID link Product ID in Product table
Order ID link to Order ID in Order table
Status ID link to Status ID in Order status table.

I did not see any link in Qty. How to check or see?
Everything as original in Northwind template, did not change anything. Just
add some extra field like size and etc.

Thank you..

But the original Northwind doesn't do that. You'll have to tell Access how
to do what you're describing. You'll have to tell Access about the new
fields.

Sometimes taking an existing application as a template and just changing a
few things doesn't actually get you any closer to what you want. Sometimes
you need to just dig into HOW its doing things, and work out your own ways
to get the new tasks done.

Good luck!
