Bill Change Log

This feature displays the changes made in a header and grid format.

When viewing items on a tab that lists details in spreadsheet form, clicking on any column heading will sort the list in descending order based on the data in that column. Clicking a second time on the same column will sort the items in ascending order by that column. This applies to most, but not all spreadsheet forms. For example, the Ledger History spreadsheet may not be sorted by clicking on column headings.
