I have a customer database with the following: tblCustomers that includes the following fields: pkAccount_Num, Customer_Name, Service_Market, Acquisition_Date (required), Cancel_Date (null if customer has not cancelled).

I have been able to summarize the data using 2 separate crosstab queries (e.g. number of new customers by market by month and cancelled customers by market by month), but don't have a good idea on how to create a report that shows the beginning and ending customer count by market by month. Ideally, I would love to create a report that looks like the following spreadsheet with dynamic headings based on a beginning and ending date range. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to structure the table, queries and report for the most efficient solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Hello,

Sorry if this "solution" arrived a bit late but I only joined the Access forum only recently, join the Excel part of it a while ago.

I had troubled getting around the idea and then I thought "I will I go about it in Excel" and came up with may be a way to get the wanted result. Not sure how it will work if you have a lot of data [efficiency] and you may want to double check the results are the one expected.

I created a table with periods start and end ie:
start end
1/01/2010 31/01/2010
1/02/2010 28/02/2010
etc....
You can do the table in Excel with the formula for end as follows:
=eomonth(start,0) [not sure if this formula exists in all version of Excel]

Then I created some crosstab query based on the table markets and the table periods.

To get the beginning:

TRANSFORM Sum(IIf([acquisition_date]<[periods_table].[start],1,0))-Sum(IIf([cancel_date]<[periods_table].[start],1,0)) AS Expr1
SELECT Market.Service_Market, "1.Beginning" AS Type
FROM Periods_table, Market
GROUP BY Market.Service_Market, "1.Beginning"
PIVOT Periods_table.Start;

To get the acquisitions:

TRANSFORM Sum(IIf(([acquisition_date]>=[periods_table].[start]) And ([acquisition_date]<=[periods_table].[end]),1,0)) AS Expr1
SELECT Market.Service_Market, "2.Acquisitions" AS Type
FROM Periods_table, Market
GROUP BY Market.Service_Market, "2.Acquisitions"
PIVOT Periods_table.Start;

To get the cancellations:

TRANSFORM Sum(IIf(([cancel_date]>=[periods_table].[start]) And ([cancel_date]<=[periods_table].[end]),1,0)) AS Expr1
SELECT Market.Service_Market, "3.Cancellations" AS Type
FROM Periods_table, Market
GROUP BY Market.Service_Market, "3.Cancellations"
PIVOT Periods_table.Start;

To get the endperiod:

TRANSFORM Sum(IIf([acquisition_date]<=[periods_table].[end],1,0))-Sum(IIf(IsNull([cancel_date])=False And ([cancel_date]<=[periods_table].[end]),1,0)) AS Expr1
SELECT Market.Service_Market, "4.End" AS Type
FROM Periods_table, Market
GROUP BY Market.Service_Market, "4.End"
PIVOT Periods_table.Start;

Then I union query brings everything back into one query:

SELECT *
FROM EndPeriod
UNION
select *
from beginningPeriod
union
SELECT *
FROM Cancellations
UNION SELECT *
FROM Acquisitions;


Then do a report based on this query.


I uploaded the database [2000 format] if you want to take a look at it [sometimes it is easier to understand when you have the all picture]

Hope this is useful

sunnyland - Thanks so much for taking the time to work through this and offer a solution for me. It is a great start and will definitely be useful for me.

FYI - Access does not have an eomonth function, but I found someone who created a custom function in Access that works the same way as Excel's eomonth function. Here's the link: http://www.fontstuff.com/vba/vbatut05.htm#endofmonth

Thanks again!!
