Accounts Payable retention can be calculated automatically in Accounts Payable Invoice Data Entry using the standard retention rate specified for the vendor in Accounts Payable Vendor Maintenance or the retention rate specified for the vendor in Job Masterfile Maintenance. The calculated retention can be overridden manually during Invoice Data Entry.

  1. Select Job Cost Main menu > Job Masterfile Maintenance.

  2. In the Job No. field, enter a job number. For more information, see Job Masterfile Maintenance - Fields.

  3. Click Cost Code.

  4. In the Cost Code Detail window, in the Cost Code field, enter the cost code of the subcontract. For more information, see Cost Code Detail - Fields.

  5. In the Cost Type field, select Subcontract.

  6. In the Vendor No. field, enter the vendor number.
