Twenty-four dashboards, built from your own columns

Every layout below is a working design, not a screenshot. Each one looks for the columns it needs in your spreadsheet and maps itself to whatever you actually have — so the cash-flow layout works on your cash-flow export, not just on ours. Every number is computed from your file.

One screen, four to six headline numbers, and at most two charts that explain them.

The usual failure is showing everything the data contains instead of the handful of figures a decision turns on. Every design here keeps that shape: a scorecard row, one or two charts, and a ranking table underneath.

Common questions

What makes a good Excel dashboard?

One screen, four to six headline numbers, and at most two charts that explain those numbers. The common failure is a dashboard that shows everything the data contains rather than the handful of figures a decision actually turns on.

How many KPIs should a dashboard show?

Four to six on the top row. Past that the eye stops treating any of them as headline figures. If more matter, they belong in the table beneath, not as tiles.

Can I use these layouts with my own spreadsheet?

Yes. Each design binds to column intent rather than to a fixed schema — it looks for columns whose names suggest revenue, date, region and so on, and maps itself to whatever your file has. Every number is computed from your data.

Do I need an Excel add-in?

No. These run in the browser on an uploaded .xlsx or .csv. No add-in, no macro, no VBA.
