Hi everyone,

I'm trying to add an optional variant to the below inventory control code. I would like the code to output the current inventory for a particular zone of the warehouse if specified when calling the code. If a zone isn't specified, the code will return the current inventory for all zones. The zones are A, B, C and D.

I'm currently working on the stocktake part of the code and I've started by adding vZone as the variant and declaring strZone. However, I am currently getting a type mismatch error if I don't specify the zone when calling the code.

I would like 'lngQtyLast' to look at either ZoneA_Quantity, ZoneB_Quantity, ZoneC_Quantity or ZoneD_Quantity, depending on which zone has been specified. I would like it to look at Product_Quantity if no zone is specified.

Using the below stocktake data as an example, the inventory for product code 250 should be 11437 when calling the code using the expression OnHand([Product_Code],#05/01/2024#,"A").

Stocktake_Date Product_CodeProduct_Quantity ZoneA_Quantity ZoneB_Quantity ZoneC_Quantity ZoneD_Quantity
05/01/20242504143711437100001000010000


Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Chris

Code: 
....,Optional vZone As Variant = "None"

strZone = vZone
If strZone = "None"
  code
else

end if
 
Thanks!

That removed the error and I got the code working using the following:
Code: 
                If strZone = "None" Then
                lngQtyLast = Nz(!Product_Quantity, 0)
                Else
                If strZone = "A" Then
                lngQtyLast = Nz(!ZoneA_Quantity, 0)
                Else
                If strZone = "B" Then
                lngQtyLast = Nz(!ZoneB_Quantity, 0)
                Else
                If strZone = "C" Then
                lngQtyLast = Nz(!ZoneC_Quantity, 0)
                Else
                If strZone = "D" Then
                lngQtyLast = Nz(!ZoneD_Quantity, 0)
                Else
                End If
                End If
                End If
                End If
                End If
 
A few thoughts:
You can also check explicitly with IsMissing.
Code: 
Public Function onhand(vProduct_Code As Variant, Optional vAsOfDate As Variant, Optional vZone As Variant) As Double
   ...
   If IsMissing(vZone) Then
      lngQtyLast = Nz(!Product_Quantity, 0)
   ElseIf vZone Like "[ABCD]" Then
      lngQtyLast = Nz(.Controls("Zone" & vZone & "_Quantity"), 0)
   Else
      Err.Raise ...
   End If
   ...
End Function

In database applications, Null as standard could perhaps also be useful if, for example, Null could also be passed.
Code: 
Public Function onhand(vProduct_Code As Variant, Optional vAsOfDate As Variant, Optional vZone As Variant = Null) As Double
   ...
   If IsNull(vZone) Then
      lngQtyLast = Nz(!Product_Quantity, 0)
   ElseIf vZone Like "[ABCD]" Then
      lngQtyLast = Nz(.Controls("Zone" & vZone & "_Quantity"), 0)
   Else
       Err.Raise ...
   End If
   ...
End Function

Perhaps review Select Case ?

Thanks for the suggestion, I've tried to implement the code and I'm getting a Compile error for .Controls in lngQtyLast = Nz(.Controls("Zone" & vZone & "_Quantity"), 0).

Any thoughts?
 
Change Controls to Fields ... I overlooked the fact that you take the values from a recordset.
lngQtyLast = Nz(.Fields("Zone" & vZone & "_Quantity"), 0)
 
Ideally you don't want to store the zone quantities in separate columns. It would probably be easier to use a table with multiple columns. Sort of zone = A and qty = number. That way you aren't limited to a set number of zones, and you can filter and sum much more easily.
