Hi Everyone,

In both Sales Contracts and Sub Contracts, we have set up retention. While executing the contracts, I noticed a difference in how retention impacts the project figures.

For example, in a Sales Contract with a total value of 400,000 and a 10% retention, once the Application for Payment is submitted, the Project Posted Revenue is updated to 360,000, with the 40,000 retention correctly deducted.

However, in the Sub Contract, once the valuation is certified, the Used Cost is updated without deducting the retention amount.

The main issue I’ve identified is that, in the Sales Contract, the Planned Revenue reflects the total contract value, while the Posted Revenue is updated with the retention deducted. In contrast, in the Sub Contract, both the Planned Cost and Used Cost reflect the total contract value without deducting the retention.

Could anyone please confirm if this is the expected system behavior or if there might be a configuration or process I’m missing?

I would really appreciate any expert advice or clarification on this.

Best regards,
