Hello everyone,

How would I include retainage (retention cost) for each activity of a project, in P6? Would I use Cost Accounts or Expenses?

Please advise.

Thanks!

    Hi.
    I did not check in P6 yet but I’m sure you can do it if you have Primavera Contract Manager, an seperate module which can be linked to P6.

    There is no problem in P6 in having an activity "Finished" i.e. having a finish date, AND still having a remaining cost.

    So I would use resources.

    In addition, resources can be placed beyond the finish date of the activity, so it is possible to have, say, 10% of the resource cost happening 60 days after the end of the activity.

    Have Fun!!!
