Custom Access Databases

Microsoft Access Custom Databases

Microsoft Access is flexible and easy to use. This allows us to develop business software for you quickly and inexpensively. For larger projects it is easy to migrate to an alternative technology if (or when) required. Software developed using an Access database can also be used on "the Cloud" for remote access.

A custom built Access database will address your specific business requirements, and will operate precisely the way you need it to. It will adapt as business processes change, and will grow as your business expands.

You will be able to capitalise on your USP to keep ahead of your competitors, and thrive whether in a niche market, or one that is highly competitive.

Microsoft Access Business Administration & Invoicing

A very successful dance school required a custom Access business administration system, including invoicing, to simplify management as their business expanded. We incorporated precise requirements pertinent to their business, and have continued to adapt the system in accordance with changing requirements of relevant professional bodies.

PDA Hardware Integration with Access database

A business which supplies retail outlets with farm produce was finding it difficult to keep pace with increasing demand for their products as well as the greater flexibility required by their clients. Moving from a manual rounds system to a computerised one, using a ruggadized PDA integrating with an order processing system, has significantly reduced the administrative workload, and made it far easier to handle ad hoc changes to deliveries.

Work Flow System with Billing and ISO 9001 Compliance Support

We developed a new custom Access database when rapid expansion of our client's business made it difficult for him to keep pace with invoicing. The new custom built Work Flow System combines job management, accurate billing, as well as ISO 9001 compliance.

Custom Project Administration database with Contact Management

We re-built a custom Project Management database for this property consultancy business. The original system had been badly designed, with inefficient "work-arounds" and confusing navigation.

Custom Live Auction Management with Invoicing

We developed a Live Auction Management System customised to handle the specific requirements of Tayler and Fletcher, particularly with regard to farm machinery auctions as well as hay and straw sales.
The new system manages the complete process including compiling the catalogue, calculating commission and bidder premiums, generating bidder invoices, printing vendor statements, and balancing the sales ledger at the end of the auction.

Excel Export with Access Version Control

Excel integration with Access was needed for the manipulation of large data sets. Our client also required improved version control to manage the distribution of his Genstat Market Size Databases to customers running different versions of Access.

Website integrated with Job Management System and MIS

A Facilities Department within a school needed to co-ordinate and schedule requests for work. We built a Job Management database which integrates with the client's website, and incorporates a Management Information System.
