Documentation

Definition

Indicator, which identifies a Special G/L Transaction for security retention amounts.

Use

The retention amount for a partial invoice is also called a security retention amount. Its purpose is to safeguard against inaccuracies in the service entry. Security retention amounts never become due. The cumulative retention amount for partial invoices is cancelled when the final invoice is created.

The retention amount for the final invoice is also called the guarantee retention amount. Guarantee retention amounts become due after a certain period (for example after 2 years). In the contract data for a down payment chain, several guarantee retention amounts can be defined with different percentages and latest ends.

For all document items on customer or vendor accounts which are updated in an Alternative Reconciliation Account the special G/L indicator determines which account is chosen.

In addition to the delivered special G/L indicators, further special G/L indicators can be defined per Account Type Customer and Vendor.
