Recats - multiple lists for categorized transaction approval instead of asking to categorize
I want to be able to pull all the transactions in a GL for a specified period of time and send it to the client to 'approve' or they could make a note directly there about where they'd like a particular item moved to. I'll give you two use case examples. I'm in Canada so meals have some ambiguity and I explain the guidelines to clients and then leave it up to them to decide what will be coded to meals. Periodically (once a month, quarter, or year depending on volume), I send the client all the meals transactions and have them confirm that they meet the guidelines. Another one is due to/from shareholder. Same thing, periodically I send the client all the due to/from shareholder transactions and have them make sure nothing is actually a business expense. The process right now is to download this in excel, format it for the client, copy it into a word document, upload it to adobe & add space for them to make notes and sign their approval. I'd love if recats could pull these lists for me and have the client review it, make notes as necessary, and sign for approval without me having to do more than set a date and send (or, even better, set it to recur automatically at whatever period I want). I don't need or want the client to approve each individual line item, just make a note if something should change and approve the whole list. I would pay the $4 per client for this if it worked for many (most?) of my clients. Perhaps this is part of the month end close automation but if not I'd love to see it as part of recats. As it stands, I find recats less than useful for categorizing uncategorized transactions (which I believe is its intended purpose - I made another post about this already: 'make recats less clicky').
