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?

The problem I am trying to solve is finding a nice way to put the receipts that I have. Simplefin uses the notes for the description from the bank, so I want to keep those. We can't have multiline notes, so there is no easy way to write both pieces of information nicely.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

My main solution is to be able to add a new field/column so that I can easily add a link to the receipts from Paperless-ngx. I think this approach would be much more powerful, as people can now make the software their own and customize it for themselves. Another solution would be to just have receipt support in the program.

Oops, did not realized that issues instantly get closed, my bad. This is a duplicate. This issue can probably be closed and have the tags removed.
