What is change in the future?

Was it better to commit to change or update for the future for one month?

I am currently developing applications where the user will add an entry with an effective date but I am having a difficulty labeling that button.

Let’s say I label the button as

Add New Entry

This doesn’t seem right because the user will not add a new entry on the list of active entries but rather he/she will create an entry that will be active on a certain date on the list of current entries.

Update Entry

This will not work because the action will not immediately update the entry, the entry will change on the effective date specified by the user.

What are the relevant label labels for buttons?

What is an acceptable solution?

What is my prospective entry value?

If you want to get involved, you can use Next enegrement or even just future entrance.

If the item in question is the only one in this category, you can say next entry

and enter your values to apply.

What has come into mind as first thing is “enqueue”. But not exactly like you want.

You could also use defer :

defer implies a deliberate putting off to another time.

Or postpone :

postpone means an intentional delay usually for a definite time.

Assuming you don’t have another button to add an entry to the current list, having a button labeled “New Entry” might be the most straightforward. If you create a new entry where you have a start date and need name, you know that it wants to be

created again.
