My problem is that:
I want to Select one row from the database, The data should be arrange in expiry (the ones that are not yet expired and I don't want to limit it). The items that passed the current date must be left alone. And with all the same ITEMID lets say I00001.
Then after selecting I want to Update the first row of the database. if the quantity reaches 0 then it will go the next row to update and so on.
Here is my example
Here is the current database screenshot.
I want select the itemid where = I00001 and deduct 50.
Then it should look like this
Then I want to arrange based on the expiry as I mentioned above.
Select the first row.
Deduct the 50 from the quantity. (as I also mentioned above).
Here is my code:
for (int i = 0; i < dataGridView.Rows.Count; i++)
{
cmd = new MySqlCommand(@"SELECT * FROM inventory2 WHERE itemid = @itemid ORDER BY expiry ", sqlconnection);
cmd = new MySqlCommand(@"UPDATE inventory2 SET quantity = @quantity WHERE itemid = @itemid ORDER BY expiry)", sqlconnection);
sqlconnection.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
sqlconnection.Close();
}
I'm open for another suggestion in doing this. I hope you understand my problem. Thank you very much. I'm sorry I cannot send another screenshot.

I would do it all via sql without c# code. But it's 4am and I am off. Will look at it tomorrow

oh it's ok thanks.

Try this,
void UpdateQuantity() {
// your connection string
MySqlDataAdapter adp = new MySqlDataAdapter("Select * from table where ItemID = " + 13 + " Order BY expiry", cnn); // I have test db and I used it
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
adp.Fill(dt);
int deductNum = 50;
foreach (DataRow item in dt.Rows)
{
int value = (int)item["quantity"];
if (value >= deductNum) // if had enough stock we don't need to pass the next line
{
int result = value - deductNum;
item["quantity"] = result.ToString();
break; // so need to exit from loop
}
else
{
deductNum -= value; // else we deduct value count from deduction
item["quantity"] = 0; // quantity finished so it will be 0
}
}
MySqlCommandBuilder cmb = new MySqlCommandBuilder(adp);
adp.UpdateCommand = cmb.GetUpdateCommand();
adp.Update(dt);
dataGridView1.DataSource = dt; //to show the result
}
(You can calculate :))
Hope helps,

Thank you. I owe you one

Hi! I got a chance to try your code but it displays an error. "Additional information: Specified cast is not valid." In int value = Convert.ToInt32((int)item["quantity"]);. Thanks :)

I don't have Convert in my answer. Cast and Comvert together will give that error. @Philip
