Hi Aimee,
Thanks so much for your help with this request! I really appreciate all the time and effort that went in to looking back through the records. And understood about the complication of going through to separate the forced vs. soft entries. I think these numbers should suffice for now and if I need more specific information, I will reach out.
Sincerely,
Julie Brown
