Database Editor
Sage Timberline Office Database Editor provides a set of Windows®-based tools for streamlined setup and easy maintenance of the estimating databases you use with Sage Timberline Office estimating software. Quickly add records and update fields in multiple records all at once. Global changes are immediately visible in a spreadsheet-style view.

Database Editor ensures referential integrity of records throughout your database. Changing a phase description, for example, will carry through to the same description referenced in items, assemblies, and in models. You can also use several reporting tools to check your database for missing elements, such as phases or formulas referenced by other database elements. Offering extensive and dynamic help, Database Editor can be used by both novice and experienced Sage Timberline Office estimating users.
