If the event loop were to have an added timer event to run the SLR once a day. 
There's no such timer now.

Even if the SX is "create automatically" it will require user intervention if 
there are variables in the formula: The user must supply values for the 
variables in order to create the "real" transaction.

Yes, I suppose one could update and repaint the existing SLR dialog instead of 
telling it to cancel and drawing a new one, but it would be a bit more work and 
invisible to the user.
