Overview
The Gifts & Entertainment Log is the detailed register of every gift and entertainment declaration recorded in CORE. While the G&E Dashboard gives you a summary view with charts and value-band breakdowns, the log is where you go to find specific records, review declaration details, and manage individual entries.How to use it
