How to automate a bi-weekly timesheet in Excel using special formulas to auto-populate the dates in the pay period, we'll set up a drop-down list for PTO type selection, and then see how to set it up for calculating hours, overtime, and total pay. This template will automatically update the pay period end date, and all days and dates in the pay period based on entering/updating the pay period start date. Also, simply enter base pay rate and all other totals will auto-calculate.
