Recurring tasks
Track what needs doing, how often it repeats, who owns it, and when the next reminder should appear.
Google Sheet + Calendar
Stop remembering the house from scratch.
A copyable tracker for filters, batteries, inspections, seasonal chores, and all the small things that become expensive when nobody owns them.

Creates calendar reminders before tasks are due
Calendar nudges
The sheet is designed around a Google Calendar sync so chores can show up where the household already looks.
Plain ownership
No mystery dashboard. The source of truth is a spreadsheet you control and can edit any time.
Template
Copyable Sheet Status
The public Green Bean template is being prepared from a private working version. The copy link will be added here after the template is cleaned and safe to distribute.
Setup
First Run Checklist
- Make a copy of the tracker into your Google Drive.
- Review the sample tasks and replace them with your own rooms, systems, owners, and repeat intervals.
- Choose the Google Calendar where maintenance reminders should appear.
- Run the calendar sync once, approve the Google permissions, and confirm the test reminder appears.
- Turn on the recurring trigger only after the test event looks right.
Permissions
The template needs access to the copied spreadsheet and the calendar you choose. Green Bean does not receive your task list or calendar data.
Troubleshooting
If reminders do not appear, check the calendar ID, run the sync manually, and make sure the next due date is not blank.
Disable sync
Remove the Apps Script trigger or delete generated events from the selected calendar. Your sheet still works as a manual tracker.
