Thanks Bastien for advice and for connecting with Jose. It would be useful to write some lisp for inserting and adding data from org into rec files. It could either be from org-mode tables or from properties. I am essentially thinking of org-mode providing an interface for feeding data to recutils.

You might want to look at recutils instead.

It was announced on org-mode mailing list here 10 years ago:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-12/msg00219.html

Jose is still developing it actively - it made the news on HN
recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22153665

There is *some* integration with org-mode, although I have not tested
it. I've also found this, but this seems outdated and not maintained:
https://github.com/millarc/ob-rec.el

I'm cc'ing Jose as he may be able to share his own wishlist on how Org
could better interact with recutils.

HTH,
