The Project Management Institute found that 70% of projects fail to achieve their original goals — and the most common cause isn’t talent or budget, it’s the absence of a tracking system. This Tax Calculator gives every task an owner, a deadline, and a status.

What’s inside this Tax Calculator template

• Milestone tracking — mark the major checkpoints that define project success
• Budget vs actual hours — see where the project is over-running before the deadline arrives
• Dependency notes — link tasks that must be completed before others can start
• Team workload view — see how many open tasks each person currently has

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.
