Appendix — Creating a custom Expense Report Programming the mapping table

8Define the number of Sections. Each row in a table defines how your Acer s10 data will be placed in a Section of your custom Expense Report. Note that the prepaid portion of a section has its own row and counts as a separate section for map table purposes, even though it is not a separate section in your template.

You may add or delete rows as necessary so that the total number of rows corresponds to the number of Sections in your custom Expense Report. To clear all of the existing settings in a row, click to select the row and press Ctrl+Delete. Name each row to correspond to a Section of your custom Expense Report.
