1.98: Refinements to address handling based on the fields specified on the worksheets. Some additional variant field names recognized.

Fix Job Status field, which wasn’t importing. Depreciate “Taxable” field and direct to use “Sales Tax Code” field instead. Update Customer example worksheet and notes.
