Enable retainage in Accounts Payable

  1. Go to Accounts Payable > Setup > Configuration.
  2. Under Accounting settings, scroll to the Retainage section.
  3. Select Enable AP retainage.
  4. From the Retainage payable dropdown list, select the General Ledger account to credit with the withheld retainage amount when you create a vendor invoice in Purchasing. The non-retainage portion of the invoice uses the Accounts Payable offset account that you specify on the Purchasing invoice transaction definition.
  5. To separate retainage sequence numbers from other sequence numbers, set unique sequence numbers to use for retainage on vendor invoices.
  6. Select Save.
