Step by step

How do you use the expiry tracking spreadsheet?

  1. Step 1: Replace the examples with your documents

    One row per document for each hotel: the name, who issues it and the issue date.

  2. Step 2: Fill in the expiry date

    The Days to expiry and Status columns are calculated automatically. A document that does not expire has a blank expiry date.

  3. Step 3: Open it every week

    Start with the expired documents and those expiring within 30 days, which need a renewal request right away.

Is the spreadsheet really free?

Does it open in Excel and Google Sheets?

Yes. It is an .xlsx file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice. The formulas only use common functions, such as IF and TODAY.

How does the spreadsheet calculate the days to expiry?

The Days to expiry column subtracts today's date from the expiry date. The Status column uses that number: Expired, Expires within 30, 60 or 90 days, or Up to date. The formulas are ready in 199 rows.

Which documents should go in the spreadsheet?

The ones the hotel must keep valid in order to operate, such as fire safety certificates, operating permits, health licenses and inspection reports. For hotels in Brazil, the full list, with what each document is, is in the document expiry tracking guide.
