Project invoice proposal with milestone billing, customer and retention.

Dear Experts,

I am facing a issue with below calculation on FP project with completed percentage, please advise.

Milestone value for project - 30000$

Customer advance from project - 3000$

Retention set to 5% on all billings.

Step #1:

Created a customer advance of 3000 and post,

Navigation > Project > Manage tab > Bill group > Customer advance > Post 3000$

Step #2:

Setup milestone billing from On-account transactions form,

Navigation > Project > Manage tab > Bill group > On-account transactions > Create new record > Enter sale value as 30000

Step #3:

Define the retention terms on the project master under customer retention term, set as 5% across all billing

Step #4:

Create invoice proposal from project.

System calculates the line value as 30,000 and the retention value as 1500$ (5%) on the invoice line.

Overall value 30000 - 1500 = 28500.

So i expected 28500-3000(advance)=25500.

After posting i realized the system has calculated 30,000-3000 = 27000 and 5% retention on that. 25650 is the invoice value.

I believe the retention should not impact the customer advance. Am i missing something? Let me know.

    System should work like your expectation,

    Invoice Amount 30,000
    Retention amount (5): 30000*0.05= 1500

    Invoice amount after Retention deduction = 28500

    Less: Advance 3000

    Total Receivable amount 25500
