VbzCart: catalog building

Version

This is being revised yet again for the 2007 VbzCart-MySQL migration project; the previous version is here: VbzCart catalog building 2006.

Process

This is only a draft, as the process is still being worked out.

1. Update the list of all catalog-based items ([calc Items Updates saved])
   • Generate a list of all the items currently available from suppliers (query)
   • Add any new items to [calc Items Updates saved]
2. For all items in [calc Items Updates saved] where ID_Item IS NULL, create new records in cat_items and update the corresponding records in [calc Items Updates saved]
3. Update all data in cat_items from data stored in [calc Items Updates saved]
4. In cat_items, clear all isForSale flags except for items either in stock or found in [calc Items Updates saved]

SQL

These are from the MS Access 97 version.

qryCatNum_Depts

<sql>SELECT

 d.ID,
 d.name,
 d.sort,
 d.CatKey,
 ID_Supplier,
 s.CatKey&iif(d.CatKey IS NULL,"","-"&d.CatKey) AS CatNum,
 d.CatKey AS DeptCatKey

FROM Depts AS d LEFT JOIN Suppliers AS s ON d.ID_Supplier=s.ID;</sql>

qryCatNum_Titles

v_titles has much the same information, but depends on _titles and so may not be up-to-date. <sql>SELECT

 t.ID,
 t.Name,
 d.CatNum&"-"&t.CatKey AS CatNum,
 d.DeptCatKey,
 t.CatKey AS TitleCatKey,
 ID_Dept,
 d.ID_Supplier

FROM

 Titles AS t
 LEFT JOIN qryCatNum_Depts AS d
   ON t.ID_dept=d.ID</sql>

qryVb_Items_updates

<sql>SELECT

 BuildOption(g.Code,gt.GroupCode,o.CatKey) AS CatSfx,
 t.ID&CatSfx AS IDS_Update,
 t.CatNum&CatSfx AS CatNum,
 t.ID AS ID_Title,
 g.ID AS ID_TGroup,
 gt.ID AS ID_TGTitle,
