Mistaken rollback vat

Hi I have mistakenly rolledback my vat return - its submitted to hmrc but not showing on my submissions - I have read other feeds which state to un tick the box for online filing and redo - i cannot find the online filing box please advise.

Thank you

Hello @mveng

Hello Alan

The return is showing as “Filed” in your Reports > Vat Returns > Create screen and there is a HMRC ID on the rolled back return.

You can not re submit a filed return but you have to save a copy as to not impact the next return.

To do this

  • Go into Report > Vat Returns > Settings
  • Set the HMRC account to “No electronic filing” > Save
  • Go into Report > Vat Returns > Create >
  • Enter the period > If the figures are correct > Submit (this will save a copy of the return as a placeholder)
  • Go back into Report > Vat Returns > Settings
  • Set the HMRC account back to your company > Save

For reference

So I found that I had missed some transaction and added them in and then rolled back my VAT return, only to discover that it does roll back the submission.

If I do what you said above it will make the submission based on the new figures I have just added, I don’t want to do that I just want to undo my roll back. If that happens the other figures will just get swept up in the next VAT return.

I don’t know how to post adjustments or stuff like that, I just want to keep it simple

Sorry, it did not save my edit

  • Remove the payments/receipts you made post submission
  • Go into Report > Vat Returns > Settings
  • Set the HMRC account to “No electronic filing” > Save
  • Go into Report > Vat Returns > Create >
  • Enter the period > If the figures are correct > Submit (this will save a copy of the return as a placeholder)
  • Go back into Report > Vat Returns > Settings
  • Set the HMRC account back to your company > Save
  • Re-enter the payments/receipts you made post submission

The re entered transactions will then be picked up on the next return
