Invoice - Ability to hold and release bond/security deposit
Can we get a simple way to hold and release bonds. This would be MASSIVE and help with compliance.
Hi Dejan, thanks for bringing this idea to the community. We understand the request for a way to manage bonds or security deposits within the invoicing workflow, including holding the amount separately and releasing or applying it later. This can be useful for businesses that regularly work with deposits alongside standard invoicing.
The idea is to introduce a clearer way to track and manage security deposits through a dedicated hold and release process, rather than relying on manual workarounds such as liability accounts or journals.
For now, deposits are typically managed using standard invoicing and liability accounts, with manual tracking used for holding and returning funds where needed. We appreciate this can add extra steps depending on your workflow.
