Hello TurningPoint ! As I can see it, you need a free MS Access Template exactly written on your special case.

 

 As CARF accredited institution you can contact your regional Microsoft Partner - wait! dont surrender, read that at the end! - and ask for Office 365 for getting thatFOR FREE!

I dont know for US but in Germany we have free Office 365 Tenants for public or other services like non profit orgs that get this with 25+ accounts for free!

 

Most of them already use their GDPR secured projects in databases like e.g. Dynamics 365, SharePoint or within SAP / Salesforce environments. Nothing is for free. The minority doesnt work with MS Access or Excel any more because security restrictions and legal requirements are getting more complex now and in future.

 

And i am sorry to be so robust about your questions. MS Access individual database planning and deploying is'nt for free and you have 2 choices: Either create and ellaborate (and learn new things) or do it - i would recommend this! - Office 365 and PowerApps on your own. OR get a professional freelancer or company advice on that project. It is a complex project. OR you find someone that guides you through this project for free and if you have that luck, i 'll be wrong.

 

Greets, Eva.
