Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/8141

Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I happen to have some expenses where the payee has the same prefix, but everything after is different/random
So it looks something like

ABC - 123
ABC - 234
ABC - 345

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

When setting up a rule, I'd like to be able to say Payee starts with ABC

Teaching and learning

An extra example under custom rules https://actualbudget.org/docs/budgeting/rules/custom

I have the same and just use imported payee "contains with", but maybe that is not specific enough?
