3 TopicsConnecting MS Access to MS Outlook Calendar - MS Outlook calendar to automatically generate event
In short, I am building a holiday planner, which all the employees within my department are to use. I want to build such functionality in MS Access that, whenever I have approved a holiday, i.e. the approved time period goes into table X, Columns Y and Z, which columns are date columns. I want to extract the time period columns Y and Z form and automatically generate an event in the MS Outlook calendar, which states the employee name from the employee table and the time period they are to be absent. For this I need MS Outlook to extract the data from MS Access. Do you guys have a suggestion how this may happen? P.s. Also I want the calendar I made in MS Outlook to check the table once every 24h and for every new row in table X I want it to create a new event automatically and delete the relevent event if the row is delete1.2KViews0likes1CommentDatabase Build or Template Help
Part of our CARF Accreditation is analyzing data. If it can be measured, it can be reported. That being said our agency needs a database and reporting features to be developed. Our plan is to use Acess. However, we are open to suggestions. I designed and developed a database for a Division II athletic department 10 years ago in Access. So, I am somewhat familiar with the program, but I would need a substantial refresher. I would rather spend the money to have it built then spend hours in front of Youtube. I have the design idea, all the information we are interested in collecting and the reporting that will go along with it. Trouble is the quotes we are receiving from freelancers and Access specialists are thousands and thousands. Does anyone either know of a more cost-effectiveway to have a database built whether it is for Access or another software company. Or, is there a template anyone knows of? Or, I know this is an Access board but maybe another software? I like the flexibility of Access though. I looked at the templates and they weren't "enough". I would still have to get my hands dirty and figure out the tracking of the tests. With CARF, they want data and they want to be able to measure that data. It is essentially a client database that will report demographics, customer satisfaction, and the results of tools or tests given to the client at the initial visit and every 6 months following. The client information is the easypart. It is getting into the tools and the measurement of that data that gets complicated. For example, Mental Health. The client will take a test on the initial visit that will spit out a number. That number will give a general diagnosis. With those results, we move on to Level 2, that gives a more defined diagnosis. Then, to Level 3. After the administration of those tests, I score them. Which is of no concern. Ihave spreadsheets I developed that scores the results for me. I have to be able to track these results for the client, the program, the provider, and the agency. We are interested in reporting on anything and everything. The following are examples: Trend of Date of Intake Number of clients per Provider Number of clients per Type of Service Number of clients per Client Status Number of clients per Frequency Number of clients per Diagnosis Report of clients’ for program and agency: Employment Status Reason for Today Age Range Marital Status Household Size Public Assistance Gender Disability Household Income Race Highest Level of Education Completed Primary Language Secondary Language Military Status Payment of Services Report of Performance Tools: These tools will be issued to the client every six months from the date of intake in their respective program and the results will need to be tracked as such with respect to the date, the client, the provider, the program and the agency. The design would be in whichever way it would be easier to set this section up. Whether it is drop down menus or manual entry. This is the information we would like to track based on the specific Tool(s) and Domain in relation to the: Type of Service Provider Date of Test to show the status throughout the program Tool / Level scores Domain scores Score Satisfaction Survey: This will be issued annually. The results will be tracked by: Question Provider Program Date Agency Question Examples: How has Client A progressed throughout his / her program? What are the results of the clients assigned to Provider A? What are the Somatic Symptom scores for Ages 11 – 17 Level 2? How many clients are African – American’s? How many clients are active in each program? How many clients were successfully discharged? How many clients left the program early? How many self – pay clients are there? What is the primary of diagnoses in this community? Is it viewed by the client that Prover B is not completely prepared for their session? Are clients satisfied with the services of Provider C? What is the overall satisfaction of the agency?1.2KViews0likes1Comment
