Holy smokes, that worked. Great find! Thank you!
Here is an example of the Jinja2 code that I used based off your recommendation that resolved my white space issue:
{%- if a.tax_id != a.$prev.tax_id -%}
tax id changed from {{ a.$prev.tax_id }} to {{ a.tax_id }}
{% endif %}
adding the - sign after the % and before the % on every if statement resolved my issue.
@Mike @Gary - You both are great. I appreciate y'all for helping me resolve this headache of an issue
