Как планировать рабочее время и вести учет дел в Excel?

Мы часто страдаем от нехватки времени и перегрузок на работе. Бесплатная программа, сделанная в Excel, поможет вам планировать рабочее время и вести учет дел, прогнозировать и не допускать перегрузок. В этой статье я расскажу, как пользоваться программой. В конце текста будет ссылка на файл, который вы сможете скачать.

Общее описание программы

Внутри файла Excel находится 32 листа. На первом листе выводится информация о загрузке в определенные дни, а также статистика по фактически отработанному времени и времени, которое запланировано на все дела в текущем месяце.

На скриншоте ниже мы видим, что на первое число запланировано дел на 3 часа 45 минут, на второе число – на 6 часов 20 минут, на пятое число – на 8 часов 20 минут.

При этом программа автоматически подсвечивает дни в зависимости от нагрузки:

  • Зеленый фон означает, что день относительно свободен. На него можно ставить новые дела.
  • Желтый фон означает, что день достаточно плотно расписан и новые дела стоит добавлять осторожно.

Красный фон выводится в случае, если на день запланировано более 8 рабочих часов. Этот день перегружен и лучше принять меры, чтобы сделать его свободнее.

Максимум в месяце может быть 31 день, поэтому на первом листе предусмотрено 31 поле. Если в месяце не все дни рабочие или число дней меньше 31, то часть дней останется пустыми (там будет запланировано 0 часов).

Помимо первого листа «Загрузка», в файле Excel находится 31 вкладка, пронумерованная от 1 до 31 включительно. На этих вкладках находятся формы, в которые можно вводить информацию о запланированных задачах на определенный день месяца.

Как планировать рабочий день?

Рассмотрим для примера вкладку «1», на которой зафиксированы рабочие дела, запланированные на первое число месяца. Для примера в файле уже введены несколько дел, смотрите скриншот ниже:

На скриншоте представлены три дела. По каждой задаче можно указать следующую информацию:

  • Описание задачи в произвольной форме.
  • Запланированное на выполнение задачи время.
  • Статус задачи – «В работе» или «Готово». Статусы подсвечиваются, чтобы вам было удобно ориентироваться, какие задачи сделаны, а какие находятся в процессе выполнения.

Фактически затраченное на каждую задачу время. Это не обязательное поле. Если вы будете его заполнять, то программа будет считать, сколько времени вы отработали по задачам за месяц.

Внизу таблицы выводится суммарное время по всем запланированным задачам и суммарное отработанное время. Всего можно добавить до 10 дел на каждый день.

Рабочие задачи и дела на первое число месяца необходимо фиксировать на вкладке «1», задачи на второе число – на вкладке «2», на третье число – на вкладке «3» и так далее.

Чтобы воспользоваться планировщиком на следующий месяц, можно очистить в файле информацию по предыдущему месяцу или еще раз скачать пустой файл с программой.

Где скачать файл с программой?

Файл выложен на Яндекс.Диске. Скачать программу для учета рабочего времени и дел можно по этой ссылке. Для работы вам потребуется установленный на компьютере Excel.

Если у вас будут какие-либо пожелания или дополнения, пожалуйста, пишите их в комментариях.

Менеджер задач на Excel

На кой черт может понадобиться таск-менеджер, реализованный стандартными средствами Excel? Хороший вопрос. Известному специалисту по информационной безопасности Дидье Стивенсу пришлось сделать подобную штуку, когда он столкнулся с системой, в которой было запрещено буквально всё. Взаимодействие с ОС осуществлялось через специальную оболочку, препятствующую запуску большинства приложений, в том числе и стандартного таск-менеджера (через который ее легко можно было бы отрубить), да и локальные политики ограничивали его использование. Увидев, что Excel входит в число разрешенных для запуска приложений, Дидье подумал, почему бы не задействовать встроенные в Office VBA-макросы, чтобы управлять запущенными процессами в системе? Подумал-подумал и сделал полноценный таск-менеджер.

Как это выглядит?

PoC представляет собой обычный Excel-файл — TaskManager.xls. Идея проста: если в системе ограничен запуск таск-менеджера, но при этом есть возможность открывать Excel-таблицы с макросами, то управлять процессами можно через несложный макрос, реализованный на VBA (Visual Basic для приложений). Открыв файл, ты увидишь две кнопки: List processes (Отобразить процессы) и Execute commands (Выполнить команду). Собственно, жмем первую и видим, как таблица быстро заполняется информацией о процессах (название исполняемого файла, ID процесса, путь к бинарнику, пользователя, под которым запущен процесс, время создания процесса, а также разрядность —32 или 64 бита). Любой из процессов можно выгрузить, приостановить и, соответственно, возобновить. Для этого в колонке Command напротив процесса надо поставить флаг нужной команды (например, терминейту процесса соответствует буква t) и нажать на кнопку Execute commands. Получается реально полезная штука. Тут даже не надо фантазировать по поводу пентеста и ограниченных окружений, чтобы представить, зачем она может понадобиться. Вспомни хотя бы winlocker’ы — любая подобная дрянь блокирует запуск таск-менеджера.

Хакер #157. Деньги на багах в Chrome

Как это работает?

Все макросы полностью написаны на чистом VBA. Для манипуляции с процессами вызываются WIN32-функции из соответствующих системных библиотек. Нужные функции вначале объявляются путем подгружения из DLL, которое осуществляется примерно таким образом:

После этого их можно использовать без ограничений. К примеру, следующая функция выгружает процесс из памяти:

Последняя версия TaskManager.xls работает как в 32-, так в 62-битных системах, отлично себя чувствует в любых Офисах (вплоть до 64-битной версии Office 2010) и имеет цифровую подпись.

Excel Task Manager

by melih · Published June 30, 2013 · Updated December 25, 2013

Here is a task manager with a progress bar. You can input your daily tasks, give priorities, mark them partially or fully completed and see your daily progress at the same time. Pretty easy to make, pretty easy to use.

I will keep it short this time since all of the components are already explained in previous posts. Here are the components used in this task manager:

Now, a quick walkthrough about how to build a task manager:

First make a list layout for task list (see example column headers below).

Make an importance list on another sheet. On importance column, apply data validation. Select the importance list you make as source data.

Make a list for completion status with percentages on another sheet. Insert one combo box for each task and select status list you made as source data.

Now return to second sheet where you made your lists and make a new list that consists of these columns:

Column formulas can be checked from example workbook. Here is explainations:

  • Y/N column checks whether there is any task inputted for that task nr.
  • Status column is filled by status combo boxes.
  • St Value column is interpreting selected status values to completion percentages.
  • Importance column is interpreting selected importance values to percentages.
  • Total value is Y/N x Importance
  • Comp. Value is Total Value x St Value.

Now take total of Total Value at the bottom of the column and input sum(comp value)/sum(total value) to the bottom of Comp. Value column. Also add a 100% value next to them. These are going to be input values for our chart. When you add a task to the list and set a priority, it eill change total value. As you change it’s status, comp value will increase.

Now make a progress chart (tutorial link above) by using dynamic Comp. Value and static 100% value. Cut it from here and paste it on sheet1.

Lastly, select your first task row on task list and apply conditional formatting. Select formatting based on formula option and use “Y/N value for task1 on sheet2 = 1” as rule. Copy this row and paste formatting to other rows of the list.

Now make some tests, add tasks, change importance and completion status. I think you are done 🙂

Here is the example workbook for Excel Task Manager. You can download it and check features, formulas easily.

Kill Processes From an Excel Spreadsheet Based Task Manager

Nearly everybody with more than the minimum amount of computer knowledge will have used the built in Windows Task Manager, and know what an important tool it can sometimes be. Whenever a program crashes, hangs, consumes too many resources or just shouldn’t be there, often the quickest and easiest way to solve the problem is using Task Manager to forcefully close the program.

The problem with Task Manager is it’s such a vital troubleshooting component, malware often targets it and tries to block use of the Task Manager so the malicious process cannot be terminated. Some more sophisticated malware can even block third party task management software such as Process Explorer from running.

If you’re stuck and the default Task Manager has been blocked or you can’t run a third party task manager tool then things can become quite tricky. There is however, a rather interesting solution to get around this problem, which is to use a task manager tool built to run in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Most people would expect a utility like this to be an executable .exe file, but this one is actually a standard Office 97 – 2003 Worksheet .xls file with some built in trickery.

TaskManager.xls is a small (41KB) and simple task manager that has been created using the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) programming language component built into Excel and other Office applications. While it doesn’t show you things like running services, performance graphs or network activity, it can list the currently running processes, and terminate, suspend or resume any of them, which is the most important part when dealing with malware.

For this to run you have to make sure Macro’s are enabled in Excel because their usage is disabled by default to protect against potential Macro viruses. If Macro’s are disabled for instance in Excel 2003, and you don’t get asked if you want to enable them for the current sheet, go to Tools -> Options -> Security -> Macro Security, and set the level to medium which will always ask to run a Macro in future.

TaskManager.xls

TaskManager.xls is a simple taskmanager implemented in Excel/VBA. It can list the running processes; and terminate, suspend or resume selected processes.

I wrote this script because I was in a restricted environment where I could not use Task Manager or Process Explorer. It will also come in handy when fixing an infected machine, where the malware prevents one from launching Task Manager or Process Explorer.

Push button “List processes” to list all processes:

Here’s how you would use it to disable malware. List processes, identify malicious processes, type command s (suspend) in column Command for the malicious processes you want to disable. Push button “Execute commands”, this will suspend the selected processes.

Now terminate them with the t command:

Doing this in 2 steps (suspend and terminate) in stead of just terminating, is more suited for multi-process malware that monitors itself.

Wow, very useful.

I can’t figure out why, but this code runs/compiles just fine in Excel 2010, even though the API functions aren’t declared with PtrSafe.

@Hero ‘That’s possible, search for my Frisky Solitaire post.

Comment by Didier Stevens — Friday 4 February 2011 @ 7:09

@David It runs on x64 Windows with 32-bit Excel. You are probably asking about 64-bit Excel?

Comment by Didier Stevens — Friday 4 February 2011 @ 7:14

@Jonathon Maybe you are using 32-bit Excel 2010?

Comment by Jari — Friday 4 February 2011 @ 8:54

God I remember this kind of stuff. Back when I was at school we had a locked down Win95 environment restricted with Poledit. I wrote an excel form + vbScript to change the relevant registry keys to give me back the access I wanted. Everything from right-click context menus to removing restricted applications.

Comment by Dave — Friday 4 February 2011 @ 13:46

can it be used to get the list from remote machine?

Comment by Adam — Thursday 10 February 2011 @ 14:16

This is a seriously cool idea, and something I may add to my thumbdrives for when I’m helping people on the road. Would definitely come in handy, and I’m sure at some point might need to use it, although I would probably go to a cmd line to run tasklist/taskkill first, then wmic if the other two fail.

“wmic process list brief /every:3” or “wmic process list brief /FORMAT:htable > process.html” and then “wmic process where name=’cmd.exe’ delete” or “wmic process processid delete” (where processid = the programs processID # or pid). I don’t think you can disable wmic on a system or you cripple other services in the process. Even if “Windows Management Instrumentation” services is disabled, wmic still works through the command line.

@Adam You don’t need a VBA script to run programs from Excel, you can do it from the Open dialog.

Very Nice Stuff..

i have added some memory functionality to this excel file for examining the process memory usage..

Comment by sciomathman — Friday 24 February 2012 @ 5:19

Very well done. I’m hoping I can incorporate some of this into my own project.

I found your spreadsheet while searching for something similar. I would like to be able to produce a list of tasks like those that appear on the Applications tab of Task Manager instead of a list of processes like those that appear on the Processes tab, as your spreadsheet does.

What I am trying to accomplish is to create a list of tasks and their associated process IDs for use as parameters for the AppActivate and SendKeys commands. The user could then select which application they wish to send the keys to from the list. If the task name is unique, I can pass the task name (the same as the window title) to AppActivate. If the task name is not unique, then I would pass the PID to AppActivate to ensure that the correct instance is activated (or just always pass the PID).

I have done a fair amount of coding but these API calls are going to take some time (which I don’t have) to wrap my head around. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Excel Task Management

A pioneer in data management and analysis, Microsoft Excel has been around for over 30 years. From inventory management to business analysis, performance reporting to project management, Excel helps millions of individuals and businesses stay on track with strategic goals, record keeping, and project management.

A simpler task within grander project management is task management, a function offered by countless project management tools out there like Asana, GitHub, Microsoft PowerApps, and Jira.

But many of these tools, while useful, are needlessly complex for the simple function of task management. When it comes to task management, it’s best to return to the basics with a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

Today we’ll cover the basics about using Excel for task management, tips, and tricks, and a few examples to help you check off every task within your upcoming project. You might even learn a few surprising things about Excel in the process!

You can create a basic task tracker and lists of tasks within a short amount of time on Excel, even without a template. Here are a few steps to create and track your task list.

1. Add Headers to an Excel Spreadsheet

You don’t need a fancy or familiar template to start your task list. Start by opening a regular Excel spreadsheet and add a few headers to organize your information. “Task” should be the first, left-hand header. Moving horizontally to your right, add more qualifiers like:

  • Status
  • Deadline
  • Budget
  • Owner
  • Tools
  • Notes/Updates

2. Fill in the Details for Each Task

Add some information into the tabs to outline your tasks. Fill in each area to allow for filtering when needed.

Here’s an example:

Task Status Deadline Owner Notes/Updates
Interview Article Ongoing 02/25/2022 Bob Awaiting edits from X
Performance Report for Y Employee Complete 02/25/2022 Sarah Report finalized and submitted on 02/02/2022

3. Add a Filter to Your Task List

Each heading should have a drop-down menu so you can sort your tasks. Try sorting them by status to see which tasks are still outstanding. Or, sort them by the deadline to help you prioritize your work schedule.

4. Sort Your Tasks

Highlight a header, then click the Sort and Filter button at the top right corner. You may filter the tasks by the deadline (soonest to latest), status (ongoing, pending, complete), etc.

Tips for Using Excel for Task Management

Creating a task list is quite simple in Excel. But there are ways to make task management more efficient and tailored to your needs. Check out the tips below:

1. Export Tasks to Other Project Management Tools

We think Excel is a sufficient tool for task management. But if you want to see the tasks in the greater context of a project, you can always export your spreadsheet to Microsoft Teams or another app to continue your work.

2. Make it Pop

To-do lists are boring, and many people find Excel boring as well. Add some pizzazz to your task list by customizing colors for each tab. You might highlight all complete tasks in Green, for example.

2. Make it Pop

3. Try Out a Template

If you don’t want to start from scratch, there are plenty of Excel spreadsheet templates that you can use to organize your project’s task management goals. Here are some examples:

  • Simple Excel Task Management Template
  • Daily Task List
  • Projects To-Do List

4. Keep Notes Organized

Task updates may come sporadically, but it’s important to keep them organized. Make sure you input updates chronologically so that another team member can intuitively gather the lifecycle of a task.

5. Make Regular Updates to Status and Notes

Your team should be providing updates to your task list, but they may not always remember at the end of the day. Send emails, make phone calls, and host meetings to ensure the task list is as up-to-date as possible. And, ensure you have a regular schedule for sharing the task list with all relevant parties.

Why Use Excel for Task Management?

Tons of project management tools can handle task management, so why rely on Excel for your task lists? Here are a few benefits of using excel for task management:

Familiarity: Being around for 25 years has its perks. Most team members, young or old; recent or familiar; will know how to use Excel, especially with a function as intuitive as task management.

Reporting: Since Excel’s to-do list templates have reporting tools, you can create charts, tables, and matrices to provide better visualization of the task data and inform strategic decisions.

Accessibility: Most of your team will have access to Microsoft Suite, making Excel an accessible option. If you introduce a new project or task management tool, it may delay progress with the learning curve.

Customizable: Despite its age, Excel has many customizable capabilities, from different headers, filtering, colors, and more.

Conclusion

Millions of people understand basic Excel functions, making the platform a superior choice for simple task management. With its customizability, wide usage, and accessibility, task management is a breeze on Excel.

Daily Task Manager

Daily Task Manager Template is a very useful template to manage your daily tasks. We have used VBA automation to create an auto checkbox when the new task will be entered. We have used conditional formatting to show the completed task and overdue task. The status check box will be deleted automatically when you will delete a task

Fully Functional To-do List in Excel

Task Management System V1.0

Daily Task Manager

To create and delete a check box automatically, we have used below given VBA Code on the worksheet change event-

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim check_box
Dim rng As Range
Dim chk_rng As Range


Dim sp As Shape

For Each rng In Target
Set chk_rng = Cells(rng.Row, 4)
If rng.Column = 2 And rng.Row > 2 Then
If rng.Value <> "" Then
If chk_rng.Value = "" Then
Set check_box = Sheet2.CheckBoxes.Add(chk_rng.Left + 10, chk_rng.Top - 2, 40, 20)
check_box.LinkedCell = chk_rng.Address
check_box.Characters.Text = ""
chk_rng.Value = "False"
chk_rng.NumberFormat = ";;;"
End If
End If

If rng.Value = "" Then
For Each sp In ActiveSheet.Shapes
If sp.TopLeftCell.Offset(1, 0).Address = chk_rng.Address Then
sp.Delete
chk_rng.Value = ""
End If
Next
End If

End If
Next

End Sub
