Just to respond as to the direction we are going (not sure on timeline)....

The SQL-Ledger way was to essentially copy a transaction to a new date and
reference.  This requires that the transaction be there, and be posted.

This has two major problems.  The first is that modifying schedules is a
pain, and the second is that you cannot modify the scheduled transaction.
 For example if costs vary this is a problem.  So to address this in 1.3 we
have a template transaction add-on which is used by at least one customer
in production.  However these cannot be scheduled.  Template transactions
are not on the books and they can be altered at any time.

What we'd really like to do is attach the schedule to templates instead of
transactions.  However this work is unlikely to be done before 1.4 unless
we get significant help at this point.  Such an effort would allow,
however, transactions to be scheduled, and for changes in the schedule or
template to be made at any time.

Best Wishes,
