Employee Task Tracking Template for Excel
Track daily work, ownership, deadlines, and progress in one clear spreadsheet
Free, no sign-up, no email. An xlsx file that works in Excel and Google Sheets
How often have you asked about a task and found it listed without a useful update? The employee may know what they are doing, while the rest of the team cannot see the deadline or current status. Once work slips, follow-up turns into messages and repeated questions.
This employee task tracking template places every task beside one assignee, one section, and a clear due date. Choose a status from the dropdown, record the completion date, and review each member's summary without recounting rows.
The result? You can see daily work as it stands, catch overdue tasks earlier, and give every team member a clear next step.
Columns in the task tracking sheet
Use one row per task and order rows from top to bottom by importance
| Column | What to write |
|---|---|
| Task | Write a clear piece of work that can be completed and verified. |
| Description | Add context, requirements, and any details the assignee needs. |
| Assignee | Name one person who owns the task through completion. |
| Section | Enter the team or department responsible for the work. These values become task lists on import. |
| Due Date | Set the date by which the task should be completed. |
| Status | Choose Not started, In progress, On hold, or Done to show where the work stands. |
| Completed At | Record the completion date. A filled value also marks the imported task as completed. |

Your sheet becomes a live project
Upload the same file to the spreadsheet importer. The Task tracking sheet becomes a project, while each Section value becomes a task list. During preview, you match every Assignee name to a Fareeqy member, and the Summary and How to use sheets are skipped. Nothing is created until you review and confirm the preview.
- The Task tracking sheet name becomes the project name
- Each Section value becomes a task list
- Each Assignee name waits for your member match in preview
- Done or a filled Completed At value creates a completed task
