About this General Ledger spreadsheet template

This General Ledger template provides a complete accounting workbook with four structured sheets: a main General Ledger for posting journal entries per account, an Exception Queue for tracking unbalanced and unreconciled lines, an Executive Dashboard for profit and budget KPIs, and a Setup & Guide sheet for configuring currency, date style, and materiality thresholds.

Designed for finance teams and small business owners, the template uses pale-blue input cells to guide data entry and automatic calculations for debit/credit balancing, variance detection, and running balances. Every sheet is fully editable in WPS Office, Microsoft Excel, and Google Sheets.
