Active Table Editor is for teams that need staff to edit database records directly without giving everyone a raw database tool. Administrators define forms, menus, reports, permissions, and lookup behaviour. Users get the parts they need. Nobody gets a blank SQL prompt unless you want them to.

Choose Active Table Editor If Staff Need Safe Database Editing

You need controlled data entry

Create purpose-built forms so users can add and edit records without opening the full database structure.

You need role-based access

Control which tables, fields, reports, menu items, and actions each user can access.

You need practical reporting

Build reports for operational users who need answers, not a tour of every table in the system.

Do Not Choose It For ETL Automation

Active Table Editor is a database editing and data entry product. If you need scheduled imports, workflow automation, file monitoring, transformations, or unattended ETL execution, use Advanced ETL Processor Enterprise instead.

What Active Table Editor Handles

Table editing

Edit records in database tables while keeping the user interface focused on the task.

Input form design

Design forms for common data entry tasks, including lookup fields and validation-friendly layouts.

Report design

Create reports for teams that need to review operational data without writing queries.

User menus

Build menus that show users the actions they are allowed to run. Fewer buttons, fewer accidents.

SQL work

Build and run SQL queries when administrators or technical users need direct database work.

Import and export

Move data in and out for maintenance, review, and operational hand-off tasks.

Common Active Table Editor Workflows

  • Create a data entry screen for customer, product, inventory, finance, or reference data.
  • Give different users different menus and permissions without building a custom application.
  • Let office staff maintain database records while administrators keep control of structure and access.
  • Run stored procedures and SQL tasks from a controlled interface.
  • Export selected data for review, reporting, or downstream processing.

Supported Database Work

Active Table Editor is useful when your data already lives in a database and people need a safer front end for everyday editing. It can sit between non-technical users and the database so routine maintenance does not turn into a support ticket every Tuesday.
