counterfox3 asked:

hi all,
i need suggestions on what is the most effective way to manage stock in a order system.

i have tblcustomer, tblorder, tbl,order line,tblstock, tbl supplier

so far i have built an update query which has the orders table and stock table and in the “current stock amount” field in the update part i put stock![current stock amount]-[order line]!quantity
and theres a parameter for entering order ID

so wud it be better to create a button in the orders form to run this query so its used every time an orders made?

i have a “quantity to order” in my stock table whats the best way tto manage this without manually entering it?

whats the best way to produce a stock report showing what needs 2 be ordered

or have i got it all wrong?

please can everyone who answers put it in simple steps please

and thank you for all who answer

Stock Accounting Help Very Basic Problem Please Assist?

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

The Great Gate asked:

On June 1, Herrera Inc. issues 2,800 shares of no-par common stock at a cash price of $9 per share. Journalize the issuance of the shares assuming the stock has a stated value of $1 per share. (For multiple debit/credit entries, list accounts in order of magnitude.)
Debit Cash For $25,200
Credit (BLANK) For $22,400
Credit (BLANK) For $2,800
It is weird because all the amounts are correct. Those dollar amounts are correct and debit cash for $25,200 is correct. But…..I put for the first (BLANK) Common Stock and it was incorrect and I tried to put for the first (BLANK) Treasury Stock and it was incorrect again. Second Blank I put paid in capital in excess of stated value and also incorrect. My options are dividends payable, retained earnings, common stock dividends distributable, common stock, cash, preferred stock, paid in capital in excess of par value, paid in capital in excess of stated value, and treasury stock. Good Luck!

stock access database help?

Monday, March 17th, 2008
stock
counterfox3 asked:

ok i am building a database where it has orders and stock. so far i have dont the orders bit and im stuck on the stock bit.

i created an update query to delete stock from “quantity” of a item sold when i click a button in the orders form eg. write order in form and click the update stock button i made and a parameter to enter order id then the stock table gets updated.

what i want to know is is this the right way of going so far?

and i have a “quantity to order” field in the stock table and a “Order limit” field. What i want to happen is when the “order limit” has gone through in the “current stock level” i want a message or summin 2 say that the order limits reached and then a report can be made to show what needs to be ordered for it.

or is this a bad idea?

hopefully i dont need 2 program and all suggestions are very much apprieciated.

thank u to all who answer

Sell Mutual Fund in my Traditional IRA BEFORE 1 year?

Sunday, March 16th, 2008
mutual fund
amy y asked:

I have this loser mutual fund in my traditional IRA which I have owned for 2 months shy of 1 year, so 10 months or so.

I understand, if I own a stock for less than a year and sell it off, higher tax would be imposed on capital gain since it’s a short term, but what about mutual fund?

if i sell it now, would i be imposed high tax just like stock?

fyi, i actually lost some $$ on this mutual fund over the past 10 months.
