Example Setup

In this example, payment terms with discounts and one retainage rule are set at the contract level. The calculation is based on 30 percent completion of the contract. The control flag is set to blank to create retainage in A/R with no deferred taxes. The T and M line has no schedule of values, but has a markup of 25.00 on the T and M line.

This retainage rule is set up in the Retainage Rules Table program (P5204):
