It is important to keep track of all the retentions accumulated on the sales contract. The interim retention will normally be released at defined milestones throughout the sales contract execution, whilst the final retention is normally released at a later point in time. To support the process of releasing retention, dates for releasing both interim and final retention can be defined. The intention of these dates is to assist the user in releasing the retention when the dates are reached.
Since the interim retention is automatically released, to some extent, when creating and submitting applications (checking whether the status of the sales contract is Completed) the main usage of this window is to monitor when to release the final retention.
Information regarding the accumulated retention and when it will be released can be obtained.
