Price list format, free in Excel and Google Sheets

A price list format that stays current: dated, versioned, image-ready — free in Excel and Google Sheets. Rate list and price list, one file, both names.

The files, first

Free and ungated: a price list format with a filled sample and a clean blank in every file.

Some trades say price list, some say rate list — the same document answers both names, and this page uses them interchangeably because your customers do.

What a price list format must contain

  • The effective date and the version — above everything else — a rate list without a date is a rumour with columns
  • Item code and name — written so a human can read them aloud on the phone
  • An image column — in the interiors trades a rate against a code sells nothing; a rate against a picture sells
  • Unit — per piece, per box, per square foot — stated, so no rate is misread
  • The rate itself — one column per customer class if you price in classes, never a scribbled margin beside a printed number
  • Remarks — pack size, minimum quantity, the note that prevents the call

A rate list without a date is a rumour with columns.

Rate list format in Excel

The Excel version is the working file: sortable, filterable, a column per customer class, and the effective date in the header where it cannot be missed.

Best for lists past a hundred items and every list that changes with the market.

Price list format in Google Sheets

The Sheets version opens as your own copy, ready to edit in the browser and share as a live link — the list your team reads is always the list you last saved.

Best for teams that quote from phones.

Where the format runs out

A price list file has one enemy: the moment rates change, every copy in circulation becomes a lie you printed.

The file cannot recall itself from a dealer's counter or a salesman's phone.

Lists generated from a master — per dealer, dated, replaced everywhere the day rates move — are the other way:
