Frequently asked questions

Short answers about the templates. Anything else, use the form below.

Are the Excel templates really free?

Yes. Every template is a free .xlsx download. You do not need an account or an email address.

Do the templates work on a Mac or in Google Sheets?

They are made for Microsoft Excel and use standard formulas with no macros, so they open in Excel for Windows and Mac. You can also upload them to Google Drive and open them in Google Sheets, but some formatting or charts may look different.

Why are there up to three versions of each template?

People work in different ways. Each page offers different layouts of the same job, such as a dashboard, a detailed tracker or a simple form, so you can choose the one that suits you.

Is my data stored online?

No. The templates are plain Excel files, so the names and figures you type stay in your own file on your own computer.

Are the finance, payroll and tax templates professional advice?

No. They are calculation and tracking tools with sample data. Check rates, rules and figures against your own situation, and speak to a qualified professional for advice.
