Excel Labor Budget Management Workbook

I need a single Microsoft Excel file that lets department managers plug in bi-weekly schedules and individual pay rates, then instantly see how their labor usage stacks up against the budget. The structure I have in mind is: • One input sheet per department where a manager keys in employee name, job position, hours and pay rate. • A hidden or protected table that converts those inputs into labor dollars. • An Overview tab that automatically rolls everything up, displaying:  – Total labor cost by department  – Total hours worked by department  – Total labor cost by job position  – Revenue by department so the file can calculate labor as a percentage of revenue Manual entry is fine for the schedules and rates, but the math, look-ups and any pivot tables must update themselves without additional clicks. Clean formatting and simple drop-downs for positions or departments will make adoption easier. Deliverables: the finished workbook, an embedded “Read Me” sheet with brief setup instructions, and unlocked formulas in a separate copy so I can maintain it later.
