Hi Community,Could someone explain how warranty retention (retainage) is handled in IFS Cloud from a Finance perspective? Customer side (Accounts Receivable) Does IFS create a specific ledger item and GL posting type for the retention amount when the customer invoice is posted? Supplier side (Accounts Payable) Is there an equivalent posting type / account for retention payable on supplier invoices or sub‑contracts? If these postings exist, what are their standard codes (e.g. RET_AR, RET_AP) and where do we activate or customise them? Any pointers to the relevant screens or setup steps would be much appreciated.Thanks!

Hi Community,

Could someone explain how warranty retention (retainage) is handled in IFS Cloud from a Finance perspective?

Customer side (Accounts Receivable)
- Does IFS create a specific ledger item and GL posting type for the retention amount when the customer invoice is posted?
Supplier side (Accounts Payable)
- Is there an equivalent posting type / account for retention payable on supplier invoices or sub‑contracts?
If these postings exist, what are their standard codes (e.g. RET_AR, RET_AP) and where do we activate or customise them?

Any pointers to the relevant screens or setup steps would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
