Bills & Income
The Bills and Income pages are filtered views of your automation rules. They surface rules tagged with a specific category so you can scan your recurring commitments without opening the full Automations editor.
Bill rules carry the category bill; income rules carry income.
Bills page
The Bills page shows all rules with category bill.
- A summary bar at the top displays a 12-month rolling average of all active bill rules combined.
- Each row shows the rule name, a schedule summary, the next scheduled run, and the calculated monthly equivalent.
- Click Manage in automations to edit the full rule — conditions, keywords, split destinations.
- Click Create bill rule to open the bill template wizard.
Tip
Income page
The Income page mirrors the Bills layout for rules with category income, which includes paycheck rules and any other recurring income source.
- Summary bar shows the 12-month rolling average of all income rules.
- Each row shows name, schedule summary, next payday, and the calculated monthly equivalent.
- Click Manage in automations to edit.
- Click Set up paycheck to open the paycheck wizard — see Paychecks for details.
Creating a bill rule
From the Bills page, click Create bill rule to open a guided wizard. You specify:
- Name, amount, and frequency (the wizard maps frequency to a cron schedule).
- A source asset account — optionally a pocket within it.
- A destination expense account.
The wizard saves the rule as type transfer and assigns the bill category.
Deleting a rule
Click Delete on any rule row to remove it. This cancels all future scheduled executions. Past transactions created by the rule remain untouched.
Warning
How this differs from Automations
Bills and Income are read-only lists with a shortcut to the full editor. Use Automations when you need to:
- Add conditions (
balance > X,amount == Y) - Set up split destinations (one source, multiple pockets)
- Attach keyword matching to rules triggered by imported transactions
- Change execution mode (scheduled vs. chained after another rule)
- Set installment tracking (total installments, current count)
- Define expiration dates or days-before margin
