Monthly recurring expenses and income

[comhendrik]

I have created the first version of this function, but the function is not ready yet. The functionality works as shown in the video below. I need a little more time to make it work automatically and to make the function compatible with images. I have commented out the corresponding code, because when a monthly transaction is made the following message comes:
CoreData: debug: PostSaveMaintenance: fileSize 12347672 greater than prune threshold CoreData: debug: PostSaveMaintenance: incremental_vacuum with freelist_count - 1491 and pages_to_free 298 CoreData: annotation: PostSaveMaintenance: wal_checkpoint(TRUNCATE)
. But I wanted to show you some of my code to get some initial feedback. I want to know if this way of linking the view models to the new core data entity is the right one or if you might have some other ideas. #29 Thank you for the opportunity to contribute.

I added an automatic version but I don't know if .onAppear() {} on the NavigationView in ExpenseView is the right way

We can reuse the same model and files instead of duplicating. You just need to add a new frequency var in DataModel and update design accordingly. I'd recommend creating a new branch from main to implement this as the current one takes a different approach.

Instead of new model, we can use the existing model ExpenseCD with frequency enum. Which can store values such as { onetime, monthly }. Use this frequency val to query.

Also we don't need a separate button (Add income every month) to create recurring expense. Let's add a toggle which can update the frequency value.

Is there a possibility that this feature will be included in the app in the App Store? I ask myself this question because you mentioned that this is a different approach. However, I will start working on it.

Please update this to use single model (refer above comment).
