Have you tried to duplicate your existing transaction by either long pressing one in the transaction list or sliding to the right and then click on Clone?
it will duplicate everything in a "New transaction" form with the current datetime, so you just need to update the amount field.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am heavily using Abacus to track my expenses. There are several transactions that occur regularly and I am thus faced with performing repeated tasks to fill the same fields with the same values (except for e. g. the amount) over and over again.
Describe the solution you'd like Solution 1: Templates (preferred solution) Templates containing all of the fields of a transaction can be created by filling selected fields. By selecting "New transaction of template" a new transaction opens with the fields pre-filled according to the template. After making additions or changes (e. g. amount), the transaction is submitted.
Solution 2: Shortcuts integration Allow for the triggering of pre-filled transactions from the iOS Shortcuts app.
Solution 3: URI schemes Introduce extensive uri schemes so that pre-filled transactions can be triggered from outside of Abacus, e. g. by Launch.
Solution 4: Pre-filled fields based on the last transaction with the same title When creating a new transaction in the current ui function the title field offers a selection of auto-completes. Upon selecting a title the form should be optionally pre-filled with the (exact) details of the last transaction with this title.
