    Office Supplies to Employee (Inventory)

    Hi


    I need your help. I want to build a stock management inventory for the office. It is not a sale inventory, non-cash transactions. I want to have the total quantity of stock and employee can request stock via requisition slip; and as they request supply, it should be deducted from the total stock and shows the balances. Can someone help me get stable, cuz the database will be on a server
    Example in MS Excel
    Stock Employee
    ITEM TOTAL QTY NAME DEPARTMENT Date QTY REQUESTING BALANCE Qty REMARK
    Sheet 20 Ream Mark Account March 1, 2015 2 Ream 18

    it is not a sale inventory. This is inventory is just for office used. I want employee request supplies via Requisition slip with the name, department and quantity of items they are request, and it should be deducted from my total stock quantity and give the balance. Help me sir with a sample design and how the calculations will be made, cuz over 7 employees will be requesting supplies and this database will be on the server

    Concept is the same, input transactions for inventory in/out then calculate balance when needed.

    You might look at the MS Desktop Inventory database templates.

    Research Inventory and transactions

    There are threads within forum re: use of transactions to manage stock on hand
    Current StockonHand = Starting balance +incoming(Purchases) - outgoing (Sales)

    see

    The AllenBrowne link from June is a great reference.

    Look at the MS Desktop Inventory database templates for ideas.

    Perhaps this tutorial will help http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/

    otis,

    If it's concepts that are holding you back from looking at the examples that have been suggested, then spend an hour working with this tutorial.
    Then come back and tell us:
    --what exactly you are trying to accomplish and
    --what you are missing and need help with.

    This is a common type db. Examples can be found as described. Attempt design to suit your data and business process and post for analysis.

    Advise me on this design

    ok, please take a look at this design and relationship Sir. In the tblProduct table, the "Units In Stock" is a fix value as per order. For example if we order 15 reams of sheet. Please advise me sir. This is an office inventory, supplies stocks to employees by quantity request

    Somebody Help Me

    This is an office inventory, not a sales inventory. We supplies stocks (sheet, staple machine, letter head, etc) to employees by quantity request. We want to know the "Units In Stock' balance as employee request supplies. Example, if we have 10 reams of paper in stock and employee request 2, it should reduce to 8.
    And if we add new supply it should increase. Example if we have 8 ream of paper in stock and we add 10 it should increase to 18. Help!
