[usability] add option to keep last transaction date for new transactions when in "batch mode"
while it is sensible to assume current date for any single new transaction, this in not the case in (my personal) batch mode, where I postprocess all my financial stuff at the end of the month (or beginning of the following one):
For every new transaction I have to change the Date from current to whenever it was, which most likely takes three taps: open calendar, go one month back, tap on specific date. Only to do the same for the next transaction, which was on the very same day, or maybe the following day. But - as I go through them in chronological order - it would be so much less work, if the date stayed on the one from the last transaction. Then I'd have to do nothing or at most tap the right arrow beside the date once.
Of course I know of the real batch input mode with the ✔️➕ button, but this only makes sense for multiple transactions for the same payer/payee, as everything else is autofilled from there and this happens only once in that batch mode.
I don't know, how to implement this. Maybe (optionally) reset to today only on every app unlock?
@klaviartur The issue with the "save and new" (✔️➕ ) is not that is autofilled from the payee, but that all information is kept in the form, and if I understand you, what you would like to have is that all fields except the date is cleared. Would it suit your use case, if there were a setting that similar to the autofill feature where you can configure the fields that are filled, you could configure the fields that keep their value when using the "Save and new" feature.
If entering the payee after clearing all except date then triggers the regular autofill, this sounds about right.
Thanks!
