Spreadsheet for self-employed
Permalink Closed


Does anyone please have an excel spreadsheet for self employed sole traders that they would be willing to share with me? I've looked online and there are some about but was wondering if anyone actually used one. 

 

Thank you

I doubt if Phil's going to take it down as its his website.

If by "they" you are refering to us we're not the enemy, we only take down links which are deemed dangerous, commercial advertising, spam or SEO. Phil was just attempting to be helpful. The links quite safe as I'm not about to remove it.

Hope that you find what you want there.

 

P.s. Hi Phil. Been a while. Hope that you are well matey. biggrin

I think I love this forum! Thank you - I think I've found what I need - I just hate excel because I can't understand what to do when it goes wrong.

You'll definitely want to learn Excel.

Use the Excelsfun youtube channel. : www.youtube.com/channel/UCkndrGoNpUDV-uia6a9jwVg

There are a few thousand video's so you need to be selective... Or have A LOT of time.

I would clasify myself as an expert in it but even so that guy teaches me a thing or two and in such a way that is easy for anyone to understand and follow along with.

Start with what you know and watch video's about those subjects that will show you how much more there is to know about even the simplest things such as conditional formatting and Pivot tables. Then slowly build up and you'll find yourself using Excel User forms and VBA in no time.

 Much easier when you create them yourself to locate the issues, once you have a grip of the basics.  Maybe try to replicate the ones you have from Phil's site - its all good practice. Plus that Excel is Fun link that Shaun mentions is a good one to learn from - you can download the workbooks and work the examples alongside the videos.

Thoughts are my own/not to be regarded as official advice,which should be sought from a suitably qualified Accountant.

You should check out answers with reference to the legal position

Hi Phil

I see you use 'Names' in your cash book.......for the bank and cash control sheet formulae.

You use it for the income but not expenditure? Are there times where this is most useful - or definitely not?? Just curious as someone who uses Excel a lot without it seems using such names/labels!! : )
