We will be going back to our Order Form in this
class. We'll begin by setting the whole order as LOCKED as soon
as it's marked PAID. This way no further changes can be made to
it.
Next we'll set up a REFUND button so that
someone can take a paid order and mark it NOT paid, but at least its a
separate step (and you can optionally put a password on it).
Next we'll add a ShipDate field and "Ship
Order" button to the invoice. Click on the button, and the invoice will
be marked SHIPPED.
Next we're going to start tracking inventory
levels. We'll add a Quantity On Hand field to our product table
and form.
We'll add a note in our System Log any
time a user changes an inventory level so we can see EXACTLY where our
products are going.
Next we'll examine a problem we have where if we
add the same product multiple times, we get multiple line item
entries in the order.
We'll write some VBA code so that if you click on
Add Product multiple times for the same product, it just
increments the Quantity field. This is a much nicer result.
Next we'll start working on the process of
shipping an order. First, we'll check stock levels. If we can't
ship an order because we don't have enough inventory, the database will
yell at you.
Now we'll write the code to actually remove
the items from inventory once they're shipped. This all happens behind
the scenes, but it updates your product table.
