End of Month

nickle says:
It would be neat to be able to enter eom for end of the month.

When the date is repeating, it then goes to the end of the month.

ie. 30 Sept (eom) would repeat on the 31s Oct.

Implementation is 1st of next month - 1 day

Similarly if there were a calendar and knowledge of business days. Then a way to enter the last business day of a month is useful.

For example, I have to hand a time sheet in on the last business day of the month. Its a repeating task, but the date varies.

I would like to second this. I send invoices on the 15th and end of month... but it's proven to be a pain to get this into milk correctly. Especially at the end of Feb.

I agree that something like that would be useful. I mentioned something similar at:

The problem with a business days thing is knowing what are the public holidays and also knowing what are your company's business days

In the US, anyhow, banking holidays are pretty standard, so knowing the concept of banking days would help people remember their banking tasks.

On the other hand, implementing a worldwide solution for this would prove difficult. I wouldn't hold your breath. ;)

This idea is considered similar to "New due date format: som and eom (start of month and end of month)", and all votes have been transferred to that idea.
