Quick recurring bill option
Idea suggested by Simon Jackson 3 years ago
I have a entered a few monthly bills from a supplier, for which I've just use the Make a copy function each time:
I realised this should really be a recurring bill and so I was going to suggest a new entry on that Manage menu, something like Make recurring. It would pre-fill the "Create recurring bill template" page with all the existing info, so the only info then needed are the actual recurring schedule bits.
However, I then thought that why not have a *Make recurring bill template" button on the "Create bill" page, something like this:
... that does the same thing: copy all the info currently entered into the existing Create recurring bill template page. By having the button on the "Create bill" page instead means that:
- It's possible to create a recurring bill template from an existing bill by choosing Make a copy and then Make recurring template, and
- The Make recurring template would be a neat UI prompt to a user that maybe they should consider creating any new bill as a recurring bill.
I hope this all makes sense!
