@chapter Customizing Ledger-mode
The Ledger program provide for automating transactions but these
transaction aren't ``real'', they only exist inside a ledger session and
are not reflected in the actual data file. Many transactions are very
repetitive, but may vary slightly in the date they occur on, or the
amount. Some transactions are weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually.
Ledger mode provides a way to schedule upcoming transaction with a
flexible scheduler that allows you to specify the transactions in a
separate ledger file and calculate the upcoming occurences of those
transactions. You can then copy the transactions into your live data
file.
@node Specifying Upcming Transactions
@section Specifying Upcming Transactions
The format for specifying transactions is identical to Ledger's file
format with the exception of the date field. The data field is modified
by surrounding it with brackets and using wild cards to specity free
months or years.
