Employee Scheduling Database
Dear Access Expert.
I would like to create a Scheduling database for employees. The database would include:
- list all of the employees
-tabs to look at schedule for this week, 1 week from now, 2weeks from now, 3 weeks from now, long term (1-2 months), etc
-small comment section within each day for the guys to enter some comments...e.g. dentist at 10, holidays, etc
There has to be something like this already out there that I can modify and work with. Is there anything like this already in the NorthWind Database that comes with Access? What about some free examples Access developers made?
What about Outlook? Can I modify Outlook and use VBA somehow to accomplish this? Outlook is basically on an account basis so I don't know if I could tailor it to my 30+ employee database.
Thank you very much for your input.

Scheduling Database
Hi all, I'm just starting on a new project to create a scheduling database for a small company (about 20 people). What i aim to do is to edit calander entries (Month view) and view calander entries hopefully using a control that looks as much like Outlook as possible again this would hopefully show what these 20 people are doing over the month. My question is: Can you use outlook to do this, or would you have to use a control and does anyone know what/how to use this control. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Matt

Building A Resource Scheduling Database Version: 2000 (9.0)
Hello -- Can Access develop a report in Excel with shaded areas to denote a used resource for a given timeframe? I am building a database that will hold schedules for Trainers and Training Rooms, along with other related training class data. I'm looking to develop an excel report that will display the 52-weeks of the year down column A, and the classrooms across row one. Cell would be color-coded vertically by department. I've attached an example: I have a class beginning on January 1st and ends on February 28th, in Classroom C. I want Access to generate an Excel spreadsheet that will color the cells from 1/1 to 2/28 under Classroom C. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -------------------- Thanks, Gabe

Employee Database
I'm trying to create a database in Access to track various employee data for the company I work for. We have about 44 employees. There are about 7 different groups of data our poor secretary now has to keep up with. These include: a list of the employees, with name, address, phone, etc. A handmade form with salary information like current wage, raises and when they were given, etc. A bonus section, how much and when. A list with attendance information including tracking missed days and tardies. A list of temporary employees and when their incremental reviews are due. There are other lists we use and others we are thinking of starting having to do with training, etc. It’s too much to keep up with manually now. One of my questions is: can there be one table with the basic employee information that other tables can access without having to enter the same names again into other tables? (Why enter all those names more than once)? My other question has to do with linking tables together, I just can’t seem to grasp the concept even after reading two Access training books on the subject. I made a simpler database for another project and gave up on linking tables and the database seems to work just fine. Any help is appreciated and sorry for the long post.

Employee Tracking Database
Would like to hear from anyone that has designed a database that can be used to track employee compensation on a year to year basis. I am current designing a database to do just that but I'm having a hard time deciding on how to setup the tables. What they use this for is yearly reviews so I need it to be able to pull data from prior years and the current year. I've designed one but don't think its going to work for me. Just interested to see if and how someone has done the same thing. Thanks, Chester

Employee Absense/Holidays Database
Hi all, I am stuck where to start and wanted some advise. I want to create a database that captures whether employees are late, sick, holidays etc. So i would have a list of employees, then create a new records in another table to store what type of reason it is, (late, sick, holidays etc.), and then the directors can monitor employee sickness. But what i would to do is to be a bit clever about it though in 2 ways. Against the employee they would have a number of allocated holidays against them, but i just wanted the user to enter the start and end date, and then get access to work out how many holidays days need to be taken off, i.e. it does not included weekends or bank holidays.... Also in the sickness report, work out how many single days where taken on either a Monday or Friday.... Has anyone done or seen an access database that can do this already. I know there is a calendar addin, but i've not used it...

WorkForce Scheduling......
HI All.... I have a question which I believe I may already know the answer to but Here it goes. I am trying to create a db that can track and employee shift schedules. I have 28 employees and we work 24X7 so we have 3 shifts, days, evenings and night. I cant seem to get my head around how I would create it. I have tried like 10 different ways but I keep running into Form limits. They want to be able to schedule for the whole year out by month. I have attached a sample of what they want it to look like. If anyone knows of anything out there or could assist me in at least a correct starting point, I would be forever in debt to you. Thank you for taking the time to read this post and I look forward to hearing from you.

Room Scheduling
Can anyone point me in the direction of a room scheduling example or a tutor site. I originally wanted to use Outlook but my boss, after seeing another Acces Project I did, asked for it in the Access. I can build a basic data base on a daily basis showing rooms against hours, but my problem is forward scheduling eg "every Thursday meeting room 1 will be for Group A" etc. Can anyone please get me started - I'm tearing my hair out on this one! Thanks in advance. Peter

Calendar: Scheduling Meetings DB
;) Hello Guys: I need help creating a small Access Database to be able to make Schedules for Conference table Meetings. I am hoping to find an example, or if someone could please direct me to the right place where it’s been done before in Access 2000!? I was asked to use this Calendar: (“Calendar Control 9.0”) because all my co-workers have this Active X Control, which has Dates but not Time in and Out. I need to add Time or think of some other general Control, to add to this Database along with the Date Calendar. What my co-workers would like to do is to go inside the Database > choose their Name > pick a Date in a Calendar > pick a Time to RESERVE the meeting > place/ location, etc. The only thing right now I have is a Table for the Users, and I also need to figure out how to place it in the DB for other people to select their name and precede with other options. I need to make the DB recurring (like Outlook), notifying (e-mailing) of weekly Staff Meetings, for EX: every Wednesday for next months. So that next time, when somebody goes into the Database, they can see what Time slots are taken or Available on the Calendar. We tried this with Outlook, but it didn’t work due to the Conference table not being customized and not listed in the Company address List. Don’t mean to make it confusing - basically Outlook seems to be out of the question for my Group, therefore I was asked to look into Access :) . I don’t even know where to start. Can someone please help me modify this or I would be glad if you provide an Example for me to visualize where to start? In this Calendar, people want to be able to choose Hours. In addition, I need help with aesthetics for the Database tables, queries, forms/ Switchboard. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks a bunch in advance, Beginner:confused:

Solution For User Scheduling
Hello All I am in need of a lot of help. The situation is as follows I have a table with users that have certain classes that they have to take and in another table I have the dates that these classes are offered. My problem is I want to find a way to map all the students to their required class by scheudling them into the required classes taking into account date conflicts and classes required before taking a certain other classes. I guess my question is if there is any possible to do this in access without me phyically having to schedule each users required classes to the correct time making sure there are no date conflicts. Any help would be highly appreciated because we are talking about 3000 users that need to have schedules and that is extremly time consuming if I have to sit here and do the schedule for each user. Thank you in advance for your time

Scheduling Form With Calendar And DESPERATE
Here is my problem. I am hoping that someone here can be my hero on this one. I am trying to figure out what would be the best possible way to track my hospital's staffing. I need a form that I can click on the Active X calendar and have it populate the staffing table. I have built the code and it works great. The problem is that the way the code works now, I have to have a field in my table for every single date scheduled. For example, right now, I have the staffing table like this: Name Date Scheduled Date Scheduled1 Date Scheduled2 Date Scheduled3 Of course, after a month, an employee will have worked more than four shifts. I really don't want to add a field for every shift they could have worked because then, after a month, I'll have thirty date fields, and after a year, I'll have 365. So, do you have any ideas about how I can do this without having 365 date fields?? Thank you! If you can help me figure this out, you are my hero. KellyJo
