What Is a Recurring Receipt?

A recurring receipt is a scheduled instruction that automatically creates receipts at preset intervals. For example:

• Set up a $80 monthly home insurance expense from Jan 1, 2018 to Dec 31, 2018.

  • On save (assuming it’s January 1 or later), Foreceipt generates the first $80 expense.

  • On February 1 and again on March 1, monthly entries are created automatically.

Once active, these recurring entries appear in both the web and mobile versions of Foreceipt.

How to Set It Up

1. Log in on the Web Portal
   Open foreceipt.com (recurring receipts can only be created or updated via the web)

2. Add a New Receipt
   Click “+ New Receipt” and fill in the amount, category, merchant, and dates as needed.

3. Enable Recurrence
   In the receipt form, check the “Recurring Expense” box to schedule the receipt to repeat.

4. Set Dates and Schedule
   Define:

   • Start Date — when the first recurring entry should appear.

   • End Date — when to stop generating automatic entries.
     (If today is on or after the start date, the first auto-entry will appear immediately.)

5. Save Your Settings
   Once saved, Foreceipt will generate the first entry (if applicable) and continue to create receipts at each interval you specified.

6. View and Manage Recurring Receipts
   Go to the Recurring Receipts page to see all active series. From here, you can:

• View or edit schedule details. If the start date is in the past, you cannot change, please simply delete it and create a new one. 

• Pause or delete recurring instructions
