How is an edition made?

A program writes each edition from the figures that the site shows in that month, with fixed sentence rules. A month keeps the figures of its last update.

A change is between this edition and the edition before. It is not a change in the CFPB file of one day. A table orders states, product categories, issues or months. It does not order companies.
