Follow the steps below to use our Google Sheets bill tracker template.
Locate the second row of your sheet. Here, you'll enter the current month and year to keep track of your bills for that period. For example, you might enter “March 2024”.
Collect all necessary information for your recurring bills. This might include utility bills, rent or mortgage payments, subscription services, and any other regular payments you need to make. Ensure you have all the details such as bill amounts, due dates, and any interest due for each bill.
In your Google Sheets tracker, you will see various fields or columns designated for different types of information such as "Pay to", "Amount Due", "Due Date", "Interest Due", etc. Fill in each field with the appropriate information for each bill.
Note: The "Interest Due" field is specific and may not apply to every bill. If a bill does not incur interest (like most utility bills), you can leave this field blank or enter “N/A”.
Your Google Sheets bill tracker includes a formula that automatically calculates the total amount due across all bills. This is usually found at the bottom of the "Amount Due" column.
Check to ensure that this total updates correctly as you input your bill information. If it doesn't, you might need to check the formula for accuracy (=SUM(column range)).
Once you've set up your bill tracker for the current month, you can easily create a copy for the next month.
Right-click on the tab you've just renamed and filled out. Select “Duplicate” from the menu. This will create a copy of the tab.
Rename the new tab with the next month and year, then update the bill information as needed.
