What is an Access template?

Templates

An Access template is a file that, when opened, creates a complete database application. The database is ready to use, and contains all the tables, forms, reports, queries, macros, and relationships that you need to start working. Because the templates are designed to be complete end-to-end database solutions, they save you time and effort and enable you to start using your database right away. After creating a database by using a template, you can customize the database to better suit your needs, just as if you had built the database from scratch.

Select a template

Each template is designed to meet specific data management needs. This section describes the templates that are included with Access 2010. If your particular needs are not met by one of these templates, you can connect to Office.com and browse a wider selection of templates. For more information, see the section Create a database by using a template.

Web database templates

Five Web database templates are included with Access 2010. The term 'Web database' means that the database is designed to be published to a SharePoint server that is running Access Services. However, you can also use a Web-compatible database as standard client database, so they are appropriate for any situation.

  • Assets Web Database Keep track of assets, including specific asset details and owners. Categorize and record the condition of assets, when they were acquired, where they are located, and more.

  • Charitable Contributions Web Database If you work for an organization that accepts charitable contributions, use this template to track fundraising efforts. You can track multiple campaigns and report on the contributions received during each one. Track contributors, campaign-related events, and pending tasks.

  • Contacts Web Database Manage information about the people that you or your teams work with, such as customers and partners. Track name and address information, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and even attach pictures, documents, or other files.

  • Issues Web Database Create a database to manage a set of issues, such as maintenance tasks that need to be performed. Assign, prioritize, and follow the progress of an issue from start to finish.

  • Projects Web Database Track a variety of projects and their associated tasks. Assign tasks to people and monitor the percentage of completion.

For information about creating, publishing, and using Web databases, see the article Build a database to share on the Web.

Client database templates

Seven client database templates are included with Access 2010. They are not designed to be published to Access Services, but can still be shared by placing them in a shared network folder or document library.

  • Events Track upcoming meetings, deadlines, and other important events. Record a title, location, start time, end time, and description, and also attach an image.

  • Faculty Manage important information about faculty members, such as telephone numbers, addresses, emergency contact information, and employment data

  • Marketing Projects Manage the details of a marketing project and schedule and monitor project deliverables.

  • Northwind Create an order tracking system that manages customers, employees, order details, and inventory.

    Note: The Northwind template contains sample data that you will need to remove before using the database.

  • Sales Pipeline Monitor the progress of prospective sales within a small group of sales professionals.

  • Students Manage information about your students, including emergency contacts, medical information, and information about their guardians.

  • Tasks Track a group of work items that you or your team needs to complete.
