Using Access 2007.
Requirement: Access database that tracks what dollar amount worker must receive every month based on start date, bonus value, and number of months. A worker can receive a bonus to be paid over a number of months (the max is usually 60 months).
The input screen contains the bonus amount, the date payments should start and the number of months. (Example: Tom Smith receives $100,000 starting 2/14/2012 for 60 months.)
They want to hit a calculate button that will populate a table with all the months and what amount is received each month.
The data is currently kept in a spreadsheet and is set up as follows (Note: I have only included 12 of the 60 months):
Worker Bonus # of months effective date 2/14/2012 3/14/2012 4/14/2012 5/14/2012 6/14/2012 7/14/2012 8/14/2012 9/14/2012 10/14/2012 11/14/2012 12/14/2012 1/14/2013
Tom Smith 100,000 60 2/14/2012 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667 1,667
I haven't used Access in years and have no idea how to go about doing something like this. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
