How to correct a VAT return I rolled back in error?

Just submitted VAT return for period ending 31 July. This is now showing as submitted. Unfortunately I have rolled back this return in error. I cannot unsubmit the July return so how can I lock down the transactions up to 31 July. If I don’t do this these will all be included again in the next return

Hello @accts1234

You would need to do the steps below to create a “Saved” placeholder return that locks the transactions for the period.

  1. Reports > Vat Returns > Settings
  2. Change the HMRC account to “No electronic filing” > Save
  3. Reports > Vat Returns >Create > Enter the period for the rolled back return.
  4. Make sure the figures match what was submitted
  5. Submit (nothing will actually be sent but it would complete the process)
  6. Reports > Vat Returns > Settings
  7. Change the HMRC account back to your company > Save

Thank you very much . That’s a great help.
Best wishes
