This additional information can include additional line items, changes to existing line items, or other relevant data. Supplementation is used to ensure that all relevant information is included in the document and that the document is accurate and up-to-date.
  
  How to use it:

This will open a new window where users can enter the additional information they wish to add. Once all of the information has been entered, users can save the document and the supplementation will be complete.

This will ensure that all of the relevant data is included and that there are no errors in the document.
