- Open the Devices tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
- Log each device with network type; mixed Z-Wave, Zigbee and Thread setups are easier to support when documented.
- Hand the client a copy without your cost column; keep admin passwords in a password manager, not here.
- Using Google Sheets? Upload the file to Google Drive, then open it with Google Sheets (or File → Import in an open sheet). Formulas, dropdowns and highlights carry over.
The file opens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded, and you own the copy outright.
