( I am a lawyer, and I am usually paid a retainer in advance of doing any work. When I installed Quickbooks, it created an account called "Client Retainers". I want to record the retainer as a payment so that it shows up on the customer:job listing, but when I do that, it shows up as a negative in the "Accounts Receivable" rather than in "Client Retainers."
