Re: On Time Delivery Query

Thanks Al! I appreciate it so much. And Thanks for explaining the whole logic behind it. I'm learning so much from this group specially for people like you.

John,
IIf([ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",-3,[DueDate]),"Early",IIf([ShipDate]>=DateAdd("d",-2,[DueDate])
And [ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",+2,[DueDate],"On Time","Late"))

Says...
If ShippedDate is 3 days or more less than DueDate = Early
If ShippedDate is between DueDate -2 days before and DueDate + 2 days after = OnTime
Anything else... Late

Hi Al,
Sorry about the confusion, I didn't understand the logic behind it now I understand. My question should have been how do you add 2 days later on the "On Time". On Time=Shipped on DueDate or 2 days early and 2 days later from due date.

Currently what I have is "On Time (Shipped on Due Date or 2 days early)". I tried adding +2 in expressions (...("d",-2,+2,DueDate])......That didn't work.
Thanks again! Apprciate it so much!
John

IIf([ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",-3,[DueDate]),"Early",IIf([ShipDate]>=DateAdd("d",-2,[DueDate])
And [ShipDate]<=[DueDate],"On Time","Late"))

John,
First, you don't indicate exactly what code you tried, and... "doesn't work" is not descriptive of what really happened.
You wrote...
> If I want to change my criteria of Late (Late = past due date and + 2
days
> from due date) how do i write that?
Where did the Past Due Date come from? That's not in your original list of fields.
Example dates and example Statuses would also be helpful, as I do not understand what you're saying about the "Late" logic.
------------------
There is no calculation in the IIF Statement as to LATE. My logic states...
"If a ShipDate is NOT "Early", and a ShipDate is NOT "On Time"... then it must be "Late"
That's the "fallout" (no logic satisfied) of the IIF statement.

Try adjusting your "Early" and/or "OnTime" logic to cause the IFF to properly fallout to "Late"

Al,
If I want to change my criteria of Late (Late = past due date and + 2 days from due date) how do i write that? I tried to modify and it does'nt work.......
Here's the original code:
IIf([ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",-3,[DueDate]),"Early",IIf([ShipDate]>=DateAdd("d",-2,[DueDate])
And [ShipDate]<=[DueDate],"On Time","Late"))
Thanks again.
John

John,
I just noticed a mistype in my last post...
that will yield a count of Early in that group.
Should have read...
that will yield a count of "On Time" in that group.

Glad you got going OK...

John,
The totals for each group should be done on the report footers, not the query.

Place an unbound Text Control (ex. name = totEarly), in whatever Group Footer section you want totals for.
Make the ControlSource of that text control...
= Sum(IIf([Status]="On Time",1,0))
that will yield a count of Early in that group.

Repeat that process with another unbound text control (ex. name = totAll), with a ControlSource of...
= Sum(*)
that will yield a count of all records in that group.

If you still have problems, I need you to explain exactly what you did, where you did it, and the code involved.

I didn't work with the part where =Sum(IIf([Status]="On Time",1,0)). It shows as a text when you preview the report. Same thing with the =Count(*). Sorry I'm a newbie. I probably misunderstood some of the details.
Thanks again and I will try it again.

John,
You could apply my calculation and bind the value to a field name like ShipStatus.
In your query design grid...
ShipStatus : IIf([ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",-3,[DueDate]),"Early",IIf([ShipDate]>=DateAdd("d",-2,[DueDate])
And [ShipDate]<=[DueDate],"On Time","Late"))

Place the "bound" field ShipStatus on your report.
In any legitimate Footer, this would yield the Early count for whatever Group.
=Sum(IIf([Status]="On Time",1,0))
Use that for each ShipStatus value.

Now, in each group, =Count(*) would yield the total count of all records.
So... given that you know how many records there are, and the count of each ShipStatus type, you can now calculate the percentages of each ShipStatus.
Which (I'll bet a nickel) is probably what you're really looking for after all...

Given what I know about this report, I would consider breaking out the Status values... each in it's own column.
Early
Early
Late
OnTime
On time
Early
Totals 3 2 1

When/if you break this report by month or week, this layout has better visual impact than just a 1column dump. You might notice a pattern of Lates early in each week, or certain times of the month... yadayada. Just a suggestion.

Is there any way to summarize the total of Early, On Time and Late on the query or report?
Thanks again!
John

WOW.....Thanks for the quick response and it works. I was amazed!

John,
= IIf([ShipDate]<=DateAdd("d",-3,[DueDate]),"Early",IIf([ShipDate]>=DateAdd("d",-2,[DueDate]) And [ShipDate]<=[DueDate],"On Time","Late"))

Please check my syntax for "finger checks", but that should do it.

I'm trying to create a query for "On Time Delivery". I have query fields of PO, Date Received, Due Date and Date Shipped. I'd like to calculate EARLY (shipped 3 days early from the due date), On Time (Shipped on Due Date or 2 days early) and LATE (Shipped past Due Date) and on a business days only (excluding Saturday and Sunday). These are all coming from 3 different tables. I would appreciate any ideas.

Thanks,

John
