I have an append query that goes and looks for any records that didn't have an entry within 30 days from that date. If there is no entry within 30 days it inserts a -1 record. But the issue is that it's just a one time run.
Example if someone had an entry on 1/1/09 and they had 5 points against them. Then 30 days go by 2/1/09 and they didn't have an infraction. This Append query would enter in a -1 record. But the issue is lets say they didn't have any other infractions for 90 days the Append query only runs once. I would need a way to have it loop through to current date and keep requerying the fact table.
