How to do First VAT return on Quickfile

[jason]

Hi, I started using Quickfile from 01/03/19 and need to file my VAT return for period Jan to Mar 2019. I only have invoices for Jan and Feb - no invoices for March. How do I create the VAT return in this instance so that I can correctly account for the VAT due without entering invoices for Jan and March?
Thanks in advance for your support.

Adding and paying legacy VAT

HI, I started using Quickfile as a new user this month having completed my FY at the end of last month, so this is a new set up. I have a VAT bill resulting from the end of the last quarter which needs to be paid. How do I show this in Quickfile please as the transactions to which it relates won’t of course be in Quickfile? Shall I just log it as a payment from the bank account as I’m paying it? I would guess that I need to attribute this to some nominal codes - apologies - non-accountant here…
