Frequently Asked Questions
Can I share this with my team?
Yes, it is free for team use. Customise one master copy with your company details, then distribute it as your internal standard.
What software do I need?
Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets. The workbook uses standard formulas, so it opens and calculates in all three.
Can I customise this template?
Yes. Enter your figures in the white input cells only; the grey cells are formulas, so leave those alone. Add or remove rows to fit, then save a copy under your own file name.
How do I make it look like our branding?
Swap the accent colours and add your logo to the header. The structure stays the same; the styling becomes yours in a few minutes.
