    Hi prasad1563​,

    when I’ve worked on salary budgets using https://calcolo-stipendionetto.it/, I’ve usually started by laying out a simple table in Excel with:

    one column for each month,
    and rows for each employee or category (like department totals if you have many staff).

    Then you can add totals at the bottom, and maybe a row for expected increases (like raises or bonuses).

    It’s really just basic addition and multiplication, so don’t overthink it. Once you’ve set it up, it’s easy to tweak and adjust as things change.

    If you’d like, you could even share a rough draft of your sheet here, and people can give you ideas to refine it.

    Good luck — budgeting salaries can look tricky at first, but once it’s on a spreadsheet it’s very manageable!

    As an alternative to working from somebody else's template, might I suggest you try laying out what you visualize as helping you achieve your objectives here. Layout some arrangement of a monthly budget on paper, convert that to Excel, play around with various ways to use Excel to achieve your desired output. At most, you're probably going to need to use addition and multiplication functions, perhaps some others but all basic. A good reference (linked here) to those basic functions can help.

    This is not rocket science; in fact, creating a budget for salaries is a fairly basic spreadsheet, a great one to start learning Excel, and you'll learn Excel (and maybe discover something of what really matters in your situation) by taking a pass at creating it yourself. A sheet/workbook created by somebody else could be way off the mark from what you actually need.

    Come back here with your own best effort, so we can help with what actually makes some sense to you in your situation.
