Creating a Custom Template in Excel 2023

What is a Template?

A template is a pre-formatted document that you can use to create a new document quickly. A custom template is a template that you create from scratch, rather than using a template from Microsoft Excel or another software program. You can create a custom template to make the process of creating a new document faster and easier.

Why Use a Custom Template?

Using a custom template can save you time when creating documents. You can create a template that contains the elements you need to create a new document, such as formulas, formatting, and data. This allows you to quickly create a new document based on your custom template.

Formatting and Elements
