Row | Row Number - Starts at 10, follows by 20,30,,40…In case you want to add in a new row, just type in a Row Number, the details and it will be inserted in between two Rows. |
Exmaple: If you type in Row Number 24, it will be inserted between 20 and 30.
Base Currency | The Base Currency you use to keep your accounts. |

Illustration: The Prime Amount x The Exchange Rate = The base amount, that is
USD10,000 x 1.750 = SGD17,500.00
and if the prime amount is the same as base amount, then
SGD10,000 x 1.000 = SGD10,000.00
Status | Both the transaction header and details show the current status of the transaction.
