Changing Retention Throughout a Project

The Draw Request Billing Entry screen allows you to enter retention amounts or percentages for each detail line of the contract.

These retention allocations override the retention rate of the draw as a whole. This is particularly useful when certain billing items, such as change orders, afford a different retention requirement, including none (0.0%).
