[GNC] Scheduled transactions feature or bug?

[John Layman]

Note that ticking a box on the 'Scheduled Transactions Since Last Run' panel
will create a tab showing any transactions that fire.  From there, it's a
simple matter to delete any that are extraneous.

I'm glad I saw this post as I have a disabled scheduled transaction that I
was getting ready to renable myself. I guess the solution would be to delete
the recurring and enter a new one.

I would have also expected that enabling would start that day time otherwise
what would a disable button really be used for if it goes back and enters
transactions as if it was never disabled?
