Default anyone have a simple income/expenditure sheet, excel

Hi,

I need to make a simple income and expenditure sheet for a new venture,
would like a 1 worksheet per month so this can be filled out on a daily
basis. Does anyone have one ready made before I start scratching my head
putting formulas in?

Don't use formulas and don't use multiple sheets. Use a database with
columns for date, amount (positive for income, negative for expenditures),
and descriptors (as many as needed) and then use a pivot table on the
resulting database. Here is what I use for my columns:

Reference Number
Date Entered
Date Rec/Paid
Status
Action
Master Account
Sub-Account
Amount

There are plenty of sites and help files available concerning pivot tables -
formulas are completely unnecessary and are a source of error.

I also recommend only ONE sheet and you can use datafilterautofilterby
date

Hi,

You should find something here

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...595491033.aspx

With regard to:-

1 worksheet per month so this can be filled out on a daily basis


Don't do it!! This forum is full of posts along the lines of "I have a 12
worksheets and I want to make a summary sheet" which is another way of saying
'I started my project without thinking it out'. If all the data are on a
single sheet it's much easier to use filters to summarise data.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Hi Lesley

Seems like we are on similar levels.

I'd take Mike's advice and scan the available templates. See what you can
find and adapt to your requirements.

There is some really good advice from subscribers here but sometimes they
don't appreciate that not everyone is at their level.
