I'm not using the bills feature for this, but a scheduled transaction with the splits in place and some "placeholder" numbers to ensure the transaction has the correct debit / credit entries would do well So the solar feed in is Income:Power:FIT There is Expenses:Utilities:Power and a payment from (or to) Assets:Bank:SomeAccount I don't have to follow GST as the solar is not related to a business. I assume you're in Strylia, and the Income is not taxable.
