Alison Balter at MS Access Solutions developed the application that helps us to properly service all of our members. This program handles billing, payments, tracking of jobs worked, available list, and other important data about our members. The system automates many tasks that were previously performed manually, allowing our employees to more cost-effectively use their time. This client/server system is used by employees in our Portland, Oregon and New York offices.

Microsoft Access In The Cloud
Create an Office 365 Account
The first thing you will need to do is establish an account with Microsoft's Office 365 cloud services offering. This service isn't free and the price varies per user per month. For this fee, you'll receive access to a full suite of Office 365 services. All accounts include cloud-based email, shared calendars, instant messaging and video conferencing viewing of Office documents, external and internal websites, and antivirus and antispam protection.
Create Your Access Database. Next, you'll need to create the Access database that you wish to share on the web. You might do this by opening an existing database if you want to migrate one of your current databases to the web.
Check Web Compatibility. Before you can publish your database to the web, you'll need to verify that it is compatible with SharePoint.
Publish Your Database to the Web. Once you've established that your database is compatible with SharePoint, it's time to publish it to the web. You can do this by selecting - save and publish - from the File menu
