Could you please explain? Because I really don't know how I can use a recurring invoice for a purchase. Aren't recurring invoices not only meant for sales?

Topic: divide invoice over more than one period (3 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
Hello,
First post, just taking my first steps with frontaccounting, non native English speaker, please be kind :-)
Thank you all for frontaccounting!
I have used a commercial dutch accounting product for the past 30+ years, so forgive me that I am looking for solutions for the things I did the past 30 years.
Short version: How can I place one incoming invoice into two or more periods?
Long version:
Suppose at January 1st, I get an incoming invoice for an insurance for the first three months of the upcoming year. I would like to book 1/3 of the amount without vat in each of the three first months.
In my current commercial product, this makes 5 journal entries in the incoming invoice:
- accounts payable 108.90, period 2024-01
- vat on purchase 18.90, period 2024-01
- insurancecosts 30.00, period 2024-01
- insurancecosts 30.00, period 2024-02
- insurancecosts 30.00, period 2024-03
My current product allows me to enter a period for each journal entry. I can't seem to find how to handle this in frontaccounting so I can spread the costs on one invoice over the three months.
Thank you all for your time and suggestion.
Kind regards
