Hello everyone,
I am completely new to Access, but as a project for work I am attempting to
create a way to keep track of when we have to cancel our employees.
The information I need to include is:
Last Name
First Name
Skill Set
Shift (They work)
Date (That we cancel)
VLC (Voluntary low census - they choose to go home)
MLC (We make them go home)
SB (We send them home with the option of calling them back)
What is very important is that I need to somehow keep all the dates matched
with whether they were VLC, MLC, or SB that we canceled them. Also the form
created needs to autosort them according to date canceled so that the most
recent cancellation is found at the end of the list.
My question - is this possible in Access. From everything I have read so far
on it, it seems I can create a table with my data, create queries to pull up
the data I need (say a dayshift aide), and forms for staffers to enter the
date of cancellation and type - but I don't quite see how to keep the old
data listed along with the new.
Any suggestions - please remember I am very new trying to teach myself how
to use this program. Also I have Access 2003.
Thanks in advance
