Bank Rules - Ability to set Date as a criteria
It would be great to have the date of bank transactions as a criteria field when creating a rule. When we are paid by the ESFA, the amounts we receive at the beginning of the month have a different nominal to those received later in the month. In Sage we could set a rule as 'between 2 dates'

Hi Sarah, when a bank rule is applied it'll use the date of the statement line to apply to the transaction it creates so you don't need to set this within the rule itself. Or are you saying you'd like to set the date of the transaction that's going to be created when the bank rule is applied?

I have several bills from Apple for various subscriptions, which are paid through PayPal.
The invoices indicate the payee (Apple), transaction date, and amount. Many of these amounts are identical, making it challenging to differentiate between the different subscriptions since the invoices only state "Apple."
Each subscription is charged on a different day of the month. It would be helpful to establish a bank rule that allows the transaction date to be used as a filter, so I can select a specific contact for that rule.
For example:
28th of the month - Apple £7.99 (I know that on the 28th it's always for Photoshop)
25th of the month - Apple £7.99 (I know that on the 25th it's always for cloud storage)
And this would apply to all transactions on their respective dates.

I'd like it to recogise that say, ESFA receipts between 1-5 of the month are posted to one nominal and those recived after should be posted elsewhere.
i.e. ESFA income around the 1st of the month is always GAG but receipts after the 6th may be other income so would need manual intervention
