Look a few lines up... :-)

You can list direct debits, and manage (edit, create, list, and delete)
standing orders.  You can also setup sort of blank, one-off, payment
templates for infrequent or changable payments to the same place - I used to
use that for paying my credit card before I set up a standing order for it.
