Suggestion: automatically check for duplicated expenses

Freshbooks had a nice feature I’d like to see in Invoice Ninja: If I’ve accidentally added an expense with the same date and amount as an already saved expense, Freshbooks would, after saving it, put a warning on the top of the list with something like ‘Looks like this is a duplicate expense, let’s review it’. The review page would then list the duplicate expenses and allow me to select which one I would like to keep (or keep both).

Thanks for the suggestion!

Showing a warning after creating a potentially duplicate expense would be straightforward to implement, we’ll look into including it in a future release.

Creating a page to review duplicates would obviously be more work, to start I think we could just provide a link to the possible duplicate in the warning.

+1 to this. Love the idea!

“to start I think we could just provide a link to the possible duplicate in the warning”
That would be awesome :smiley:
