===Editing in Cumulus 1===
This monthly ini log file can be edited in Cumulus 1 using '''Edit''' menu ''This month's records'' screen.
==Viewing and Editing in MX==
There is limited viewing functionality prior to version 3.2.2 build 3058. From then onwards there is a monthly records viewer (that also works as editor) in the admin interface for each month in all years, consequently in first year of operation this effectively allowed editing of any single month. An editor specifically for this file for the current month is not available in MX until version 3.2.5 build 3061.
