Free Scrum Excel Templates for Sprint Tracking
Make your Sprint’s progress easier to see with a practical Excel spreadsheet. Track work, review burndown charts, and use cumulative flow diagrams to support conversations about how the Sprint is progressing.
I’ve refined this spreadsheet over the years and explain the thinking behind its reports in The Scrum Field Guide. Use the video walkthrough below to get started, then adapt the optional tracking features to your team’s needs.

The spreadsheet includes:
Sprint work tracking.
Automated burndown charts.
Cumulative flow diagrams.
An optional “Project Work Type” section for additional reporting.
Some features go beyond Scrum’s requirements. Use the information that helps your team make decisions without adding unnecessary reporting work.

Download the spreadsheet and save a working copy.
Watch the video walkthrough for setup instructions.
Populate the template with your team’s Sprint work.
Keep the information current as the Sprint progresses.
Use the charts to identify questions worth discussing with your team.
For example, if work is accumulating without being completed, use that as a starting point for a conversation: Is something blocked? Is testing falling behind? Is the team trying to do too much at once?
