The month-end workbook

Your month-end, built from your own export

Download the workbook, click Import, pick the CSV your EOMeasy run produced, and the whole month builds itself: cut and fill by volume, gross movement by material and by machine, period against cumulative, and a QA strip showing exactly what the numbers rest on.

It opens already populated with a worked example, so you can see the shape of it before you import anything. Your first import replaces all of it.

The Google Sheets version end to end, in fifty seconds and no sound: take a copy, authorise the script, import a CSV, and the dashboard rebuilds on your own figures.

Which version should I take?

The two files are the same dashboard. Excel is macro-enabled with a custom ribbon; Google Sheets has the same tools on a menu and a sidebar, because Sheets cannot have a ribbon.

Not sure? Take the Google Sheets one. It works everywhere and needs nothing installed.

Google Sheets: how to run it

  1. Click Copy Google Sheet above. It opens a "Make a copy" prompt.
  2. Click Make a copy. You now have your own copy in your own Drive. Nothing you do touches the original, and nobody else can see your data.
  3. Open EOM Easy → Open EOM Easy Tools from the menu bar, next to Help.
  4. Click Choose file under Import EOM, pick your export, then click Import.

Google will ask you to authorise the script the first time you click Import

You will see a screen saying the app isn't verified. That is Google's standard notice for any script outside their review programme. Click Advanced, then Go to EOM Easy Tools, then Allow.

The script only ever touches the spreadsheet you are in. It cannot see the rest of your Drive, and your survey data never leaves your own copy: the file is read in your browser and written straight into your sheet.

This version needs a Google account. That is a hard requirement, so if you do not have one or your site does not allow one, use the Excel version below.

Excel: how to run it

  1. Download the workbook using the button above.
  2. Open it. The EOM Easy tab appears on the ribbon.
  3. Click Import EOM and pick your export.

If the ribbon buttons do nothing, Windows has blocked the file

Windows marks anything downloaded from the internet, and Excel blocks macros in marked files. You will see a red SECURITY RISK banner instead of the usual yellow one, and there is no "Enable Content" button to click. This applies to any macro-enabled workbook you download, not just ours.

To fix it:

  1. Close Excel.
  2. Find the file in File Explorer, usually your Downloads folder.
  3. Right-click it, then Properties.
  4. Tick Unblock at the bottom of the General tab.
  5. Click OK and open it again.
The bottom of the Windows file Properties dialog. A Security row reads "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer", with an Unblock tick box beside it.
The tick box is on the General tab, below Attributes. It only appears while the file is still marked.

No Unblock tick box? Either the file is already unblocked, or your IT policy has removed it. If the buttons still do nothing after that, use the Google Sheets version instead: same tools, nothing to unblock.

The workbook still opens and displays correctly with macros blocked, because the dashboard is formulas rather than macro output. Only the Import button is dead, so do not assume the file is broken.

The Excel version end to end, in forty-four seconds and no sound: the blocked file and its red banner, the Unblock tick box, the yellow Enable Content prompt, then Import EOM rebuilding the month. The tools sit on a ribbon tab rather than a sidebar.

What is included, and what isn't

Import EOM is included and works. The other eight tools on the ribbon are built to order: they need your Schedule of Rates, your fleet list, your contract quantities. Click any of them to see what it would do and what it needs from you.

ToolWhat it doesWhat it needs from you
Progress Claim (SoR)Groups volumes by material and area, applies your Schedule of Rates, outputs a claim sheet ready to sendYour Schedule of Rates or BOQ item mapping
Contract vs ActualCompares cumulative-to-date against contract quantities, flags over- and under-runs, projects when each line hits 100%Your contract quantities per item
Truck vs SurveyReconciles hauled tonnes and loads against survey volumes per destination, using your own density and swellA haulage or weighbridge export
Stockpile BalanceBuilds a ledger per pile and flags any whose surveyed closing balance is out of toleranceYour opening balances and movement records
Material & Waste SplitSegregates cut by your material codes, reports productive against waste in volume and tonnesYour material classification codes
Plant ProductivityVolume and tonnes per hour by machine and crew, against rostered hoursMachine hours from dispatch or maintenance
Bench / RL ComplianceCompares achieved RLs against design bench levels, quantifies non-compliant volumeYour design bench RLs
QA Audit PackAssembles coverage, grid resolution, coordinate system, surveyor, surfaces and every check into one formatted packNothing beyond the CSV, just your preferred output format

Using it, once imported

  • Tonnes need a density. Scroll to Gross movement by material below the table and type a density beside any material; the Tonnes column fills in. Densities are remembered by material name, so they survive next month's import.
  • A dash in the BCM columns is not an error. EOMeasy only emits BCM where a swell factor is set, so those columns fill in for the volumes that have one.
  • Status column: OK, CHECK (coverage below 98%), or NO SWELL (no swell factor, so no BCM).
  • Capacity: 250 volumes and 40 distinct materials or machines per import. Beyond that it imports what it can and tells you what it left out.
  • Re-importing replaces everything. Import next month's export over the top; the previous month is cleared first, so you never get two months mixed together.

Honest limits

  • It works with EOMeasy's CSV export. It is not a general-purpose survey importer.
  • The Excel version needs desktop Excel on Windows. No Mac, no Excel on the web.
  • The Google Sheets version needs a Google account and a desktop browser. Not mobile.
  • The reconciliation maths is real, but the workbook is a demonstration of what a tailored build can do rather than an audit-grade claim tool.
