In the Netherlands, we have a regulation that has been there for a long time but is never supported as localization out of the box. It is related to subcontracting. When hiring externals, the Tax Authority wants to be sure that the income tax will be paid and also makes the company liable for who hires contractors.


In short, when we receive an invoice where there is labor involved, a certain part should be paid to a blocked bank account. The contractor is not able to use the balance of that bank account; except for paying taxes or in the case of subcontracting paying the income tax-related part from his blocked account to the third party blocked account.


This impacts the process for outgoing invoices (namely project-related) but has more impact on the incoming invoices. The vendor invoice should have the option to register the amount for the blocked part and split the invoice into two open payment parts; one for the normal and one for the blocked bank account. In addition, the payment proposal should be able, depending on preferences, to propose the open transactions together in one journal.
