A step-by-step guide to connecting to and working in multiple Estimating Link databases
There are instances when Estimating Link users will need to work in different databases. This could be due to multiple geographical locations across your company or multiple departments within your company that need to keep data separate but accessible to all users.
TCLI provides users the ability to setup and access multiple databases within Estimating Link.
🗒️Note: For Cloud Link users, TCLI will provide multiple databases upon request.
Accessing your Databases
- In your Estimating Link program, navigate to the Setup menu and select "Options."
- Select the "Database" tab.
- On the top left-hand side is displayed your "Current Connection"
- Below you can "Connect to a Different Database."
- Use the dropdown menu to select a database.
- Select the desired database and click "Connect."
- This Confirmation message will appear. Click "Yes" to connect.
- Estimating Link will automatically restart and connect to the selected database.
- Follow the same process to switch between databases.
