13:16:30 <Hinnerk> Hi.
13:16:37 <Hinnerk> Question about best practice:
13:17:04 <Hinnerk> I have a scheduled transaction and would like to book it in advance.
13:17:26 <Hinnerk> I know SX can to this.
13:17:42 <Hinnerk> But I alsoknow that the amount will go up in the future.
13:17:49 <Hinnerk> Just not by how much.
13:18:01 <Hinnerk> E.g. a rent
13:18:27 <Hinnerk> If I book it in advance, all the advanced trx will be wrong once the amount changes.
13:18:44 <Hinnerk> WHat is the best way of changing all advance booked trx in this case?
13:19:10 <Hinnerk> I would like to avoid having to introduce an additional SX each year for an increase.
13:19:30 <Hinnerk> I want the advanced trx because I want to see it in liquidity planning.
13:37:02 <Simon> don't create too many in advance, and modify the SX when you know the amount changes?
13:39:27 <Hinnerk> ah, the manual approach :)
13:39:38 <Hinnerk> that's going to be my fallback if there are no other ideas
13:40:32 <Hinnerk> But since I want to plan at least 1yr ahead, that's going to be in the worst case 12 trx per sx.
13:40:51 <Hinnerk> (for monthly ones anyway)
13:47:38 <warlord> Hinnerk: it's all about how far in advance you want the SX to book. It's a tradeoff. How far in advance do you want to see it in your books, often does the amount change, and how many transactions do you want to manually change when the price does?
13:48:05 <warlord> er, "how often does..."
13:49:07 <warlord> If you want to book them out 12 months in advance (not sure WHY you would want that, but to each her own) then yes, worst case you'll have to manually adjust 12 of them assuming you get no notice on the price change.
13:49:30 <warlord> Once an SX executes it's no longer part of the SX; it's a "real" transaction and must be manipulated just like a manually entered txn
14:07:10 <Hinnerk> Ok, well, so no clever shortcut to do this.
14:07:22 <warlord> Nope.
14:07:22 <Hinnerk> anyway. thank you and goodbye.
14:07:32 <warlord> Youre welcome
