Summary

Microsoft Access is a member of the Microsoft Office suite of applications, included in the Professional and higher editions or sold separately (Wikipedia.org). On Windows desktop the database file is stored in ".mdb" or ".accdb" format. However with Office 365, the Access data is stored in a SQL database. Invoice Manager for Excel, by default uses local (desktop) Access database. Each invoice template published here on InvoicingTemplate.com comes with an Access database with the template# as the database file name.

Invoice Manager for Excel itself uses Excel spreadsheet templates as the front-end. Access database is only used as a data storage. We don't lock the database so if you are a power user who want to customize the invoicing application deeply, you are free to do so on the database level too. For example, you can use Access queries, forms, reports, macros and modules.

Here are our templates closely related to Microsoft Access Invoice Template.
