Microsoft Access

Access Database icon  Topologika



Topologika is a small company offering educational software. They wanted a neat bespoke Microsoft Access database to help them with their Sales, Customers and deliveries. They were based in Cornwall but have now moved to Brighton.

Sales and Customers screen

They have thousands of customers - the main screen allows searches by school name, number, postcode and person name. The results can be sorted, and one click shows a detail view of the products which have been bought.

Topologika chose Access so that they could do customised queries themselves, but wanted some common ones available immediately - the favourite is to find people who bought X and have not (yet) bought Y. This allows Topologika to build targetted mailings for interested parties, apart from the days when the usually-reliable Dymo Label Printer has a tantrum and misjudges its borders.
