What is retainage release
Retainage in Oracle fusion is the process where a percentage of a committed amount that is held for payment until a specified date.
For example, you can pay the retained amount after the completion of the contract, service, or receipt of all items on an order. If you create a voucher for 100 with retainage of 10 percent, the actual payment will be 90, with 10 held as retainage.
You release retainage by entering a payment voucher for the amount that you want to release. Note that you can release retainage and create a voucher at the same time.
For example, you issue a purchase order for 2000 against a billable job account. You receive an invoice from the vendor which may or may not indicate the retainage amount. You create a voucher for 2000 with retainage of 15 percent. Thus, the actual payment will be 1700, with 300 held as retainage. The 2000 creates a debit to the billable job account per the purchase order with a 1700 credit to the A/P trade account. The retainage of 300 creates a credit to the A/P retainage account. This fully relieves the 200 commitment.
When appropriate, you release retainage either with or without a subsequent invoice from the vendor. In either event, the initiation of retention release is a manual process.
You release retainage by entering a payment voucher for the amount that you want to release. In this example, the payment of 300 creates a credit to the A/P trade account and also creates a 300 debit to the A/P retainage account.
