VAT Return including old transaction

Problem reported by Stefanie Bullman 6 days ago

I am working on the current VAT return for period - Sept-Nov and when checking the transactions there are loads in there going back to as early as 2021 - which is incorrect and obviously making the VAT return incorrect and considerably higher than it should be - do you know much about Clearbooks and why this could have happened - and also the best way to resolve this as I need to get this submitted ASAP. Many thanks

Hi Stefanie,

In this case, you must head to Settings > Configure system > Toggle features > Tax & Bank import tool > Untick MTD VAT Submission. Once completed, you can then head to Tax > VAT > VAT Return > Create a dummy return covering the dates of the old transactions that are not relevant. The return will pick the old transactions up and lock them in the return.

Lastly, you can then re-enable MTD and continue submitting as per usual.
