ESS draws from Grid at 100% Battery with Absorption

I recently returned from a holiday and noticed that my layout of my display had changed.
I can no longer see AC and Essential AC loads separately.
Further, as you can see, I am drawing from the grid when I have 100% battery available and have been in absorption for some time.

New to this so not sure what settings to check.

There is an update to v2.89 available but waiting before randomly doing that.

Thanks in advance.

@georget

Did you have the "Grid metering" setting always set to "inverter/charger"?

With this option selected you would not see "AC and Essential AC loads separately".

Thank you very much for the response.

I am not certain what it was always set to but with the below change to Grid Metering it seems to have resolved the issue:

Have made some notes and screenshots and saved a document for the next time.

Thanks again, appreciate the assistance!
