[Feature Request] Correspondent-first input + title autocomplete for recurring documents
Source: paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx#12525 · opened by @harald79
Description
I regularly receive documents from the same correspondents (e.g. weekly), and they usually follow a consistent naming pattern. Right now, it’s a bit cumbersome to remember the exact title each time since there’s no autocomplete or suggestion when entering it.
One idea that might help:
Move the “Correspondent” field to the top of the form (it’s usually the easiest thing to identify first)
Then provide autocomplete for the “Title” field, based on previously uploaded documents for the selected correspondent
I think this could make handling recurring documents noticeably faster and help keep naming consistent.
