Access → SharePoint / Microsoft 365
Migrate Access Database
to SharePoint
Replace your fragile shared Access file with SharePoint lists, Power Apps forms, and Power Automate flows — inside the Microsoft 365 your team already pays for.
Access file on a network drive. One hiccup → corruption.
Nobody knows which copy is current.
SharePoint lists with versioning, permissions, and Power Apps front-ends. Auditable, backed up, accessible anywhere.
SharePoint needs data-model redesign — the audit maps tables → lists first.
What moves where
Tables → SharePoint lists
Normalized tables become lists with lookup columns preserving relationships. Choice, person, and attachment columns mapped from Access types.
Forms → Power Apps
Access forms rebuilt as responsive Power Apps — usable on mobile, with role-based views your .accdb never had.
Macros → Power Automate
VBA/macros converted to cloud flows: approvals, notifications, scheduled jobs — visible and versioned.

Access to SharePoint FAQ
Q: Can I migrate an Access database to SharePoint?
A: Yes, but it is a redesign, not a copy: tables become SharePoint lists, forms become Power Apps, macros become Power Automate flows. Our audit maps your schema to lists first, then DFY rebuilds the app layer.
Q: What are SharePoint list limits vs Access?
A: SharePoint lists support up to 30M items per list (vs Access's 2GB file cap) with a 5,000-item list-view threshold to design around. The audit flags large tables and plans indexed views up front.
Q: Do we keep our Access forms?
A: No — SharePoint has no Access-forms runtime. Forms are rebuilt in Power Apps (usually better: mobile-ready, permission-aware). If keeping Access forms is a must, consider Azure SQL with an Access frontend instead.
Q: How long does a SharePoint migration take?
A: Simple table-only moves: ~1 week. Full rebuilds with Power Apps + flows: 2–4 weeks depending on form/VBA complexity. Your fixed quote states the timeline before you pay anything.
