8. More on Exception Report Filtering • The records will be displayed in ascending order by Department, Agency, TKU, employee last name and employee first name by default • There will be page breaks when department, agency and TKU change • The query that produces the report data will only include current version of each expense report. Since the adjusted version of an expense report would be paid on a different day than the original version, this needs to be considered when including a Payment Date Range in the selection.
