The moment a project has more than three people involved, things slip through the cracks. This Spreadsheet is designed to prevent exactly that — clear task ownership, visible deadlines, and a status everyone can see without asking.

What’s inside this Spreadsheet template

• Recurring task support — mark tasks that repeat weekly or monthly and they reset automatically
• Time log per task — record actual hours spent next to estimated hours for future planning
• Completion rate tracker — see what percentage of tasks finish on time across the project
• Archive tab — completed tasks move out of the active view without being deleted

How to use this Spreadsheet template

1. Get access using the button above, then save your copy to Drive.
2. Start by listing your project milestones in the milestones tab.
3. Break each milestone into tasks with owners, deadlines, and priority levels.
4. Share the sheet with your team — everyone updates their own tasks directly.
5. Run a weekly review using the status dashboard to flag overdue or blocked items.

Why Google Sheets for Spreadsheet?

The real advantage of tracking projects in Google Sheets is flexibility. When your process changes — and it will — you change a column, not a software setting. The tool adapts to the work, not the other way around.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this for multiple projects at once?

Yes. Duplicate the project tab for each new project and use the summary tab to see progress across all active projects simultaneously.

Does the template send deadline reminders?

Google Sheets does not send notifications natively, but you can set up email alerts using Google Apps Script — a one-time setup that sends a daily summary of overdue tasks.

Can clients see this without seeing internal notes?

Yes. The template includes an instructions tab on how to hide internal columns or create a separate client-facing tab with only the information they need to see.
