Logbook Totals Auditor

Draw a single line through the wrong figure (never obliterate it), enter the correct value, and initial and date the correction — then fix the carry-forward on subsequent pages or add a signed reconciliation note at your current page stating the corrected totals. Auditors respect documented corrections; what damages credibility is whiteout, missing pages, or totals that silently change between pages.

Interview preparation services and examiners report finding arithmetic discrepancies in a substantial share of paper logbooks — carry-forward slips, transposed digits and column drift being the usual culprits. The errors are almost never dishonest; they're Tuesday-night-after-a-long-day errors compounding silently. That's also why they're forgivable when found and corrected by you, and uncomfortable when found by the interviewer.

Absolutely — importing uncorrected paper totals into an e-logbook launders the error into a system everyone then trusts. The standard migration is: audit pages with this tool, correct the paper record, then import with totals that actually reconcile. The audit CSV becomes your migration evidence if anyone ever asks why an old page total changed.

Clearing site data or doing a full browser reset deletes locally stored entries — that is the price of a genuinely private, server-free design. Protect yourself with the one-click CSV download before any cleanup, OS reinstall or new laptop: re-importing your history later is far easier than reconstructing it from memory.

A plain CSV with one row per entry and labelled column headers — the most portable format there is. Spreadsheets open it directly, every major electronic logbook can map it on import, and a printed copy is perfectly legible to a human reviewer. Nothing proprietary means your audit worksheet is never trapped here.
