Monthly budget planner - Notion template

Plan your month, track every bill and see exactly how much you are saving, all in one organized Notion workspace.

WHAT THIS TEMPLATE DOES

Most budget trackers make you type totals by hand. This one is built so you only enter the basics: your income, your planned budgets and your expenses. Everything else is calculated for you through connected databases, rollups and formulas. You always know what you have spent, what is still coming, what is left in each category and whether you are on track to reach your savings goal.

WHAT YOU GET

• 6 connected databases: Months, Budget Lines, Expenses, Income, Income Sources and Expense Categories
• Automatic totals for income expected, income received, planned spending, amount spent, amount committed and projected savings
• Progress bars, savings rate and a health label for every budget line (On track, Near limit, Over budget)
• Payment status labels that show whether a bill is paid, due today, due in a number of days or overdue
• A step by step Getting Started guide with a relationship map, workflows and tips

HOW IT WORKS

1. Create a month and set a savings goal.
2. Add a budget line for each spending category and enter the planned amount.
3. Add your income entries and link them to a source and a month.
4. Add expenses and link each one to a budget line.
5. Change a status to Done as bills are paid and money arrives.

That is it. Your dashboard updates instantly, and each month and category shows its own totals, progress and health.
