Save and Add New (Expense)

    In looking to quickly add new expenses without returning to list view, I added a button to the edit-payment screen and modified class-ajax to handle the addnew value in edit_payment function. This could obviously be added to all entry screens, possibly cleaner, but the presence of a second submit button cannot be distinguished in the $_REQUEST variables.

    edit-payment.php: add field

    eaccounting_hidden_input(
	array(
		'name'  => 'addnew'
	)
);

    edit-payment.php: after submit button

    <button type="button" name="submitnew" id="submitnew" class="button button-secondary">Save and Add Another</button>

    edit-payment.php: in eaccounting_enqueue_js

    jQuery('#ea-payment-form #submitnew').click(function(){
	jQuery('#ea-payment-form #addnew').val(true);
	jQuery('#ea-payment-form').submit();
});

    class-ajax.php: edit_payment() at line 874

    $addnew = empty( $posted['addnew'] ) ? false : true;
$redirect = '';
if ( ! $update ) {
  $message  = __( 'Payment created successfully!', 'wp-ever-accounting' );
  if ($addnew){
    $redirect = eaccounting_clean( $referer );
  }else{
    $redirect = remove_query_arg( array( 'action' ), eaccounting_clean( $referer ) );
  }
}

  • Hi @jeremyedmiston,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    In your class-ajax.php file, make sure to handle the ‘addnew’ parameter in the $_REQUEST array. You can differentiate the “Save and Add Another” action based on the ‘submitnew’ button’s name attribute.

    $addnew = isset( $_REQUEST['addnew'] ) && $_REQUEST['addnew'] === 'true';

$redirect = '';
if ( ! $update ) {
    $message  = __( 'Payment created successfully!', 'wp-ever-accounting' );
    if ($addnew) {
        $redirect = eaccounting_clean( $referer );
    } else {
        $redirect = remove_query_arg( array( 'action' ), eaccounting_clean( $referer ) );
    }
}

    Let us know if this helps.
