About the Transaction Comparison Spreadsheet
The Transaction Comparison template lets you see exactly how your spending changed between any two time periods. Set your date ranges, then filter by Group, Category, Tag, or Description to zero in on what matters. A total appears at the top of each list, so the difference is immediate.
It’s useful any time you want to answer a specific question: Did I spend more on groceries this year than last? How did Q1 compare to Q4? The side-by-side view makes those comparisons fast and concrete.
Built by Tiller Community member @jpfieber, this Excel template connects directly to your Tiller spreadsheet data. By default, it compares last year against this year. Adjust the date ranges and filters from the green-highlighted cells to customize your view.
Best for: Excel users who want to compare spending between two specific time periods: month vs. month, quarter vs. quarter, or year vs. year.
