GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 505357
Default Values for Scheduled Transactions
Last modified: 2018-06-29 21:57:17 UTC
Often there will be scheduled transactions which will be exactly the same every time that they occur. Other times there may be scheduled transactions that are usually the same but will occasionally differ slightly. For example my paycheck might usually be the same week to week. But on rare occasions it may be different. I should be able to put in a default value for a scheduled transaction. Something like (FedTax:256) for the debit formula. The value of FedTax will be asked for, but with a default value of 256.
Seconded - I was just about to request this feature as well, good job I searched first.
Thank you for taking the time to explain your enhancement request. The described enhancement is a good proposal and would be an advantage for the software. However, as a volunteer-driven project with limited resources, the GnuCash developers have their own priorities about the features which are most likely being worked on in the near future. In that sense, the current GnuCash developers decided not to work on your proposed feature in the next 4-6 months. In case you would like to have this feature implemented in any case, you have the following option: 1. Start to program in gnucash yourself - see http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Development . 2. Convince someone who is not yet part of the GnuCash team to join the team and implement your feature. 3. Pay some of the GnuCash developers to implement your feature - ask on the mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org in that case. Thank you very much. Feel free to file other bugs or enhancement requests that you find, though.
