Who let the bugs out? 🐛

• Conditionally show/hide columns #63501: Introduced dynamic column rendering that only shows the DESCRIPTION column when transaction data contains a description, causing it to be omitted (and subsequent headers to shift) in the Task report list.
• fix:67343: Removed the sorting restriction when status is an array #67660: Touched the Reports/Expenses search table logic in Search/index.tsx which could affect header layout and alignment when multiple statuses or types like Task are selected.

If not above, check these

• fix: fallback avatar shown in reports page when RHP is open and page is not in focus #67470: Modified Search/index.tsx focus/mount logic that resets search state and could inadvertently impact the construction of table headers in the Reports-Task view.
