Simple Inventory

P

PapaBear

Okay, I have looked at the Inventory Templates for Access and also for Excel
and haven't found anything that quite meets my needs -- and not smart enough
to mess with what templates are there to make them work the way I want.

So this is what I am looking to do and maybe someone can point me towards a
template or tell me how I might edit an existing Microsoft template.

1. Dealing with apparel inventory
2. Want to be able to pick an item from a list (e.g. T-shirt, Fleece)
3. Based upon what is selected in #2 the next column would be Brand (Hanes,
Gildan, etc.)
4. Based upon what is selected in #3 the next column would be Style (5370,
2000, etc.)
5. Based upon what is finally selected in #4 I would be presented with the
information related to that specific Style -- which would be
a. each of the colors in that style
b. the sizes in each color
c. and the quantity on hand in each size/color
6. Then be able to change the quantity

I don't need to worry about PO# or anything else -- just look up and see
what I have in stock for a particular Product/Brand/Style by size & color and
modify it.

Any assistance or guidance would be more than appreciated. Thanks I posted
this in the Excel General Questions also hoping that someone working with
either Access or Excel could help me out.

From your description, I'd say you need to look into "Cascading Comboboxes".
Use that as a search term...

Good luck!
