Questions
Are my builder entries sent to Due Form?
No. The builder uses them in your browser to make the workbook on your device.
Information is sent to Due Form when you submit a form or use another service described on the How it works page.
Can I see the balance for one project only?
No. The Summary shows the whole account. To look at one job, use the filter arrows on the Project column of the Cash Flow sheet and read the rows.
Can I change the categories?
Yes. Edit them in the builder, one per line, for money in and out alike. They can also be changed on the Lists sheet afterwards.
