Feature: Remove Categories using Rules
Posted: 26 January 2017, 02:56
Hi Angeman,
I know this feature has been already requested but would like to try again to convince you to implement it (I'm own a v5 license)
I would find very very useful to be able to remove categories using Rules, these are for example a couple of use case:
1) let's say I have different rules, many of them add different categories to a transaction with different percentages, but I need to create a Rule that if match the conditions remove all the existing categories and apply a different one with 100%.
2) another use case is if I want to re-apply all the rules on my entire database because I changed some conditions in the existing rules, for example, before all the transaction with name "XYZ" where tagged as category "OTHER", now they are tagged to category "NEWCATEGORY". In this case I would be able to write a rule that run as first that cleanup the Categories and then all the rest of the rules would apply the categories with the new conditions
How does it sound?
Regards
Emilio
