Excel has grown too cumbersome for this function

Does anyone have a sample Access database that would be able to track sales
of 20 sales reps monthly and cumulatively and be able to report along the way
at any point?

There is a sample database that comes with Access called
Northwind. While this is set up to track orders, it can
easily be expanded to track sales information instead.

As pointed out Northwind has similar examples. Almost any of the templates
that come with Access use a form subform method that would work quite well.
(I'm not advocating using any of these templates. They work well enough as a
stand alone but as soon as I start playing with them I usually wish I'd
started from scratch.)

It would be fairly easy to develop one from scratch as only a few tables
would be required and initial reporting would be fairly easy.

It would offer a good learning curve for expanding the possibilities of such
a database.
