Format of Z.d.20

The accounts are done weekly and broken up into four columns:

Venit or Venit & Valet

Items delivered, including amount and value

Expense

Items used

Valet

Value of items used

Remanet

Items remaining

Template for FromThePage

Note: you may need to adjust the content of the column headers. Some pages, for instance, use Venit and Valet rather than just Venit.

Copy and paste the later lines as many times as you need, replacing the item/used/value/leftover text with what appears on the page, or deleting it (leaving a space between the pipe characters) for an empty cell.

If there is text at the bottom of the page, after the table ends, hit return/enter twice, leaving an empty line after the last line of the table, before transcribing the that text.

| Venit. | Expence. | Valet. | Remanet. |
| ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
| item | used | value | leftover |
| item | used | value | leftover |
| item | used | value | leftover |
| item | used | value | leftover |
| item | used | value | leftover |
