Tool usage guide
This utility allows you to efficiently strip specific suffixes from the end of every word in your text, helping you clean datasets, normalize variable names, or standardize lists in seconds.
Background

The '_id' suffix is redundant for the current report and needs to be removed from all entries.
How to use

The list is converted to 'user', 'order', and 'status' instantly.
