Reversing Year end and rolling back VAT returns

[AndrewThomson]

We are having to revisit last years accounts (to 31 December 2019) to resolve some VAT Return issues and cannot find a way to reverse the process?

can it be done without upsetting the Period 1 & 2 entries?

We have a wish to roll back VAT Returns and re issue them, so does anyone know how we can achieve this please?

Thanks
Andrew

Hi @AndrewThomson

If you’ve run the Year End Tool, then you will have to undo the 2 steps it takes to reverse this process. That is - delete the journal, and release the lock.

There’s more information on this here: Opening Balance Adjustments year end - #2 by QFMathew. If you do need further help with this though, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

You can roll back a VAT return by viewing it and clicking the “Roll back return” button. However, it’s worth noting that this only affects your QuickFile entries. If you need to make changes to the ones that have been submitted to HMRC, you would need to contact them.
