Spend month-end on the numbers, not on tidying them
Client exports arrive with text amounts, three date formats and duplicate transactions. MindySheets cleans them with an audit trail, finds the odd entries and drafts the commentary, so month-end time goes on judgement rather than tidying.
Built for the way finance teams work
Normalise any export
Amounts like “(1,250.00)”, “R 1 200” and “$980” become real numbers. Dates in mixed formats become one format. Every change is logged.
Duplicate transactions
Match on date, amount and reference to catch payments recorded twice, including near-duplicates with different spacing or capitals.
Unusual entries
Amounts far outside a column’s normal range are flagged automatically for review.
Formula review
Every #REF!, #DIV/0! and #N/A in a workbook, formulas that break their column’s pattern, and numbers typed over formulas.
Variance questions
“Why are expenses up in March?” gets the categories and suppliers behind the change, with figures.
An audit trail
The Excel download includes a “Changes” sheet: row, column, old value and new value for every edit.
Try asking
Each answer lists the calculations behind it, so you can tie the numbers back to the ledger.
- “Find payments with the same date, amount and supplier.”
- “Total spend by category per month, and the biggest change.”
- “Which invoices are over 60 days old and still unpaid?”
- “List transactions over 10,000 without a reference.”
- “Explain the variance between Q2 and Q3 expenses.”

Common questions
Can MindySheets find duplicate transactions?
Yes. Match on date, amount and reference (or any columns you choose) to find exact and near-duplicate transactions, review each group and remove the extras.
Will it handle amounts like (1,250.00) or “R 1 200”?
Yes. Parentheses for negatives, currency symbols, thousands separators and decimal commas are all recognised and converted to real numbers.
