Start from a preset — visitor log, meeting or training attendance, open house or event, volunteer hours — then rename, add or remove columns until the sheet asks exactly what you need. Set the title, date and location, choose portrait or landscape, and the maker fills the page with evenly spaced, numbered rows. Print it, save it as a PDF, or export the column headings as a spreadsheet to keep a digital log.
A front-desk visitor log needs name, company, who they are visiting, time in, time out and a badge number. A meeting or class attendance sheet needs name, organization, email and a signature. An open house or event wants a name, phone and email, plus a column for whether the visitor is working with an agent. A volunteer sheet needs time in, time out and total hours so the hours can be added up later.
Fewer columns means wider boxes and readable handwriting. Five or six columns fit comfortably in portrait; use landscape for seven.
Everyone who signs can read every line above theirs, so only ask for what you will use. Leave out home addresses, dates of birth and anything sensitive. For an event where you want contact details for follow-up, consider a short client intake form per person instead. Fundraisers and charity events can follow up with a donation receipt for every donor.
Health-care offices can use sign-in sheets, but US federal guidance says they should not ask for information such as the reason for the visit. Name and appointment time are the usual limit.
A visitor log tells you who is in the building if you have to evacuate, so keep the current day's sheet where it can be grabbed. Training attendance sheets are often the evidence that a session took place — write the topic, trainer and date in the header, and keep them with your employee onboarding checklist or training records.
For meetings, pair the attendance sheet with the meeting notes and action tracker so the list of attendees and the list of actions are filed together.
Record what the meeting decided with the meeting minutes template, which counts attendees against your quorum. A staff sign-in sheet is also good evidence behind a time off request or an attendance write-up.
About 20 in portrait and 14 in landscape at a comfortable handwriting height. You can choose a row height and print as many pages as you need; numbering continues across pages.
Yes. Rename any column, add up to eight in total, or remove ones you don't need. Column widths adjust automatically, and a signature column gets extra space.
Export the CSV and open it in Google Sheets, Excel or Numbers to keep a typed log with the same columns.
Usually name, company, person being visited, time in, time out and a badge or pass number. Add a vehicle registration column if you manage parking.
