Deduction.

Money a retailer withholds from an invoice for something they say went wrong: a late delivery, a short ship, a damaged case, a missing label.

What it means

Money a retailer withholds from an invoice for something they say went wrong: a late delivery, a short ship, a damaged case, a missing label.

What goes wrong
