Functional logic
- {{PropVals}} is used as a wrapper to inject extra arguments into {{PropVals/List}}, using the output of {{PropVals/getGroupedRecords}}.
- {{PropVals/List}} is used as a wrapper to inject extra arguments into {{PropVals/Print Entry}}, to output each entry of a grouped-record under a common group-heading when appropriate, as list-items
<li>...</li>.- {{PropVals/Print Entry}} is used to display each entry in a visually appealing way, by outputting an icon-image followed by a link to the page of the object followed by the amount.

- {{PropVals/Group}} is used as a wrapper to inject extra arguments into {{PropVals/Group/NextPart}}, using records as input, to output grouped-records.
- {{PropVals/Group/NextPart}} is used as a helper-template, to output a grouped-record that starts with the group-heading followed by entries, with their heading-field removed, that have the same heading-field as the previous entry.
