I see the 5,000.00 did go through job cost. It's in the same batch as the retainage portion. What I still don't understand is why/how the retainage portion (500.00) was retrieved to job cost with the "due date" and not the date of the invoice. I don't understand why it was retrieved at all, before I created it! Now I need to understand what happened, try to correct it (all sides of the errors it created), and not do it again.

Your help is very appreciated!
