User can move upward or downward to see the entire list. There may be more than one single entry for every session since the transaction entries are recorded separately.

> >    I - Inquiry

> >    This is displayed under the title Type and the specific file used under the session is also displayed.

> Note: The term user statistics used here is in synonym with audit trails. Since the user gets/logs into the package many times, his information is recorded sessionwise and it is advisable for the user to keep in track of file size. A frequency like fortnight or monthly may be a better way of handling since the package as such does not check for any boundaries.
