Does quickbooks have a setup for withholding and billing retention on projects?

You can manage withholding and billing retention by creating non- non-inventory or service item, Dee-Rose.

Currently, there isn't a direct feature to set up withholding and billing retention specifically for projects. However, you can create an item and include it as an additional line on your invoice.

Here's how:

1. Navigate to Sales and choose Products & Services.
2. Click on New.
3. Choose Non-inventory or Service as the type.
4. Input the Name and SKU (if applicable) for your product or service.
5. Use the Category ▼ dropdown to pick the category that best fits your product or service.

Please note that withholding options are only available in Payroll.

If you specifically require a dedicated feature for withholding and billing retention, we suggest considering a third-party solution.

For a detailed guide, please refer to this article: Add product and service items to QuickBooks Online.
