Recurring Expenses

in Ideas
I would love a function for recurring expenses. I have a number or expenses that are exactly the same every month, and it would be great to only have to input these once. Thank you!

I completely agree. I have recurring expense multiple times a month, for each trip, like daily per diem meals which are a fixed rate, and mileage from office to/from airport. A way to clone, copy, or duplicate would save a lot of time for me and all my coworkers.

@JohnAltman7555 If it helps, you can copy reports as long as they aren't credit card expenses. Receipt images won't copy over but it's an option for mileage expenses. You would just need to change the date.

Ring.com (doorbells) do not send email receipts, neither does Spotify. Two examples of two ho-hum low dollar transactions that occur every month.
1. CRUD a list of recurring expenses -> merchant, amount, tag, category, date of the month they charge (and/or custom such as 3rd Monday of every month or on the 1st business day of the quarter). Upload a pro-forma receipt.
2. When you go to create a report, it pulls up the recurring transactions and you can click checkboxes to add them with the default data (price, merchant, tags, category) + calendar dropdown to change the date.
3. Boom it's all in there quick and easy.

2 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 2Vote Up AwesomeA feature that allows setup of recurring expenses would be very valuable. Users have many expenses that recur each week, month, quarter, etc., that could be setup to recur on a specified frequency. This would be a huge time saver!

3 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 3Vote Up AwesomeJust wanted to let everyone know that you can duplicate a report and it will duplicate the expenses as well. I realize it's not the solution that you are talking about and I fully support the idea, but it does work in some scenarios where you need to submit the exact same report.

1 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 1Vote Up AwesomeI’m new to Expensify and I’m flabbergasted there’s no recurring expenses option. Not having it makes me consider quitting using this app, quite honestly.

1 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 1Vote Up AwesomeAlso agreed many items do not have an email Microsoft, Google, Dropbox Giffgaff ... the list goes on. We can get them, but it is relatively slow, and not really necessary. Please include this feature ... the community seems strong on this one

2 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 2Vote Up AwesomeDid you find an alternative. I have only just started using the app but in order for it to be practical and not miss any expenses I MUST have this feature. I will migrate to another platform if there is one and this feature is not forthcoming.

1 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 1Vote Up AwesomeMy company reimburses me each month for internet and cellphone expenses. In order to avoid forgetting, I have set up future-dated expenses, which was, itself, an arduous process. Now, Expensify keeps reminding me to submit a report for ALL of the future-dated expenses. Is there any way to turn this notice off for expenses that I cannot submit yet, because they are future-dated? Thanks!

2 · Accept Answer Off Topic Insightful 2Vote Up AwesomeI NEED THIS FEATURE. Almost all of my reimbursable expenses are recurring. Even mileage. I drive to the same places over and over.
