HELP! Fiat starter problem?

1.9 D Fiat Ducato. Van starts first time with jump, but won't start on its own. Battery suddenly dies after saying its charged. Once started, It can be turned off and on just by key ingition, until the next day then it needs to be jumped again. Looked on the internet, but there seems to be one to many solutions to it. Pleae help!! Dan :)

Here's a list as you have to accept that it could be any one or two problems. Yes batteries can show that until current is drawn and rappidly decrease usually through having knackered cells.

1. A knackered battery if it's an old one. Get it tested.
[test also starter solinoid]

2. Alternator fault draining the battery believe called 'open circuit'.

3. Wiring or switch fault other electricals. auto electrician will find the fault if any.

4.I had this one: Starter drawing power from battery but not pushing out power to start the engine giving impression of a flat battery. Work mechanic tested starter and it was faulty he fixed and no problems after that.
Check in sequence.
