I have a report that calculates total records by assigning (1) to each then totaling them as discussed here: MS Access How to Count Unique Records or Values On a Filtered Report.
The total is reported in the Report Header and works great when I open the report arriving at the correct number; however, when I print the value changes. Any thoughts?
For anyone that might come behind me... It will not work. I tried every possible method then paid for help. What we did instead was setup a make table query. The button that opens the report produces a temporary table. That table is setup as a crossflow table and calculates the totals. Those totals are then linked to the report from the temporary table. Works perfectly.

I have a db of some 20k error code entries, and i would like to generate a report that show
how many of each is stored.
The user creates a entry when working on a specific error and they get it from another table
example
I tried creating Queries with the selected data for the report and then using the report wizard to help.
but the SUM function add's the codes together, and the count records counts ALL together.
I am looking to create a report that i group by "Area" which is working fine.
and under each area i den count "example from the screenshot" like this
Error: - >
Do you have any idea's or is there report software that can help me achieve this?
EDIT:
One solution is i found is -
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/count-data-by-using-a-query-b84cdfd8-07ba-49a7-b067-e1024ccfcca8
Count records in a group or category
But then the problem is i am missing a column with the actual reference of the AlarmNo because now i am counting them, and i am still insterested in getting the Original number.
AlarmNo - Count of these.
Sorry i cannot share data or tables not my data.
Allright i found out what i was doing wrong, it was my sql query.
I changed the queries for each area like this.
This one for England, and it now works when i generate a report.
What i was missing was the "Count" AS CountOfAlarmCode.
Thank you for looking anyway.
´´SELECT Data2020.[Country], Data2020.[Site], Data2020.[AlarmCode], Count(Data2020.AlarmCode) AS CountOfAlarmCode, Data2020.[AlarmText]
FROM Data2020
GROUP BY Data2020.[Country], Data2020.[Site], Data2020.[AlarmCode], Data2020.[AlarmText]
HAVING (((Data2020.[Country])="England"));´´
I'm attempting to create a report in Access 2016 that resembles a bank deposit slip however I've been unable to find any way to display anything more than one record per report.
I have a query "Transactions" that sorts everything out and gives a datasheet with all the transactions to be used, the goal is to populate the report with up to around 12 different values from different transactions.
Is this even possible within access? My only thought thus far is to create a table with individual columns for each transaction, but that just seems messy.
Thanks for the help
I have 6 Datasets each one is the same query but has a different WHERE clause based on employee type. They generate 6 tables. At the top of the report there is a summary table which uses reportitems!textboxXX.value to grab the totals for 2 particular fields from all the tables. I'm also using a StartDate and EndDate parameter. Each reportitems! expression in the table comes from a different dataset in the report if that is relevant.
When I run the report using dates from yesterday back to the 9th of May I get the desired output.
But when I go to the 8th I get multiple rows all the same.
and as I go even further back I get even more rows of the same information. To my knowledge nothing interesting or different happened on the 8th of May and the tables further down the report look exactly the same. Any idea what might be causing this? The design view looks like this if that helps. There's no grouping or filters on the table.
Still not certain about the mechanics behind this but I found a 'solution' so I figured I'd post it. I just made a new dataset for my summary tables where the query was simply SELECT 1. Now I get a single row every time.
I am trying to take a report that has employee pay data for a specific date range. It works fine. My problem is I need to take and put in YTD data of hours worked and total paid from the beginning of the year to the ending date parameter. I created a subreport that gets me that data. What I am having trouble with is getting the subreport to return the data, per employee, in line with the main data. When I used Crystal Reports I could link the main table to the subreport without creating parameters. Not sure if there is an equivalent or a work around. Thanks in advance

I have a bear of a problem here. The user wants a report that shows the earnings, deductions and liabilities (EDL) code of each employee or null/blank if an EDL code doesn't apply to that employee. I needed one row for each employee name and columns for each possible EDL code combination. I got that answer fixed from my previous question here:
Struggling with a dynamic pivot on multiple columns with one being concatenated
I ran into a problem where there are a potential 270 column headings (EDL code combination with "subj", "elig" or "amt" appended) but not every employee will have a value for every column and security settings lock me out of seeing 1 of the 3 payroll groups. This made my report very limited in that when I ran it I could only show on the Crystal Report the data for what columns I had at the time I created the Crystal Report. Well, the user who requested this report has access to payroll group 1 and if even one of those employees had an EDL code that I didn't have in my data when I created the Crystal Reports file then the report wasn't useful to the user. We figured a way for her to get the info she needed by her logging into SQL Server and executing the stored procedure and she did what she needed to do with the data.
Fast forwarding to today I have to create this as a report in SSRS or give detailed instructions on how she can do this in the future if need be since my contract is coming to an end. I'm not familiar with SSRS but I thought maybe that would meet her needs over Crystal Reports. However, I'm running into the same problem. When I add the stored procedure as a dataset (adding it in as text to execute, not clicking the stored procedure radio button) I only see the EDL codes from that particular query not all potential combinations. I need a way to maybe dynamically add columns to the SSRS report, does such a thing exist?
