Pending up to a specific date, or account type with all transactions planned.
Hey!
I am not familiar with the way credit cards work in different countries, but in mine they work in the following way:
You have a certain maximal amount of money you can withdraw from a credit card, and next month on a specified date (usually 2nd, 10th or 15th) this money is withdrawn from your bank account.
In other words, credit card company gives you a loan until next month.
I would like to implement such a functionality in the app, if possible, as I use credit cards quite ofter.
The possibilities I have found currently are:
1. Create a new account as credit card, and mark all spendings (notice that there are no incomes to the credit card) as pending. Cons: I need to manually mark as un-pending each one of the transactions and it can be quite a lot.
2. Manually create all such transactions as planned for that date. Cons: it is too long to manually chose a date every time.
Would it be possible to do a specific type of account (or just add this possibility in general) to set all transactions as planned to a specific date next month/year?
Or any other way that would help accomplish this would be greatly appreciated!

Hi SergiyHoref,
thanks for your feedback! There is already a similar entry, but I'm not sure if you mean the same thing with your suggestion (automatic credit card billing). You can find it here: https://budgetflow.featurebase.app/de/submissions/64d532f15f28034779d008a7.
Please give me a short feedback so I can merge the ideas if necessary :)

Hi Fabian!
Yes, this is very similar to the thing I was proposing. Entry there uses in a different implementation I haven't though about, but which is possible more fit to the overall flow (and design) of the app.
If would be great if you could merge our ideas.
And thank you in advance!
