Submitted invoice on VAT return needs to be deleted

Hi. I’ve submitted my VAT return to HMRC and paid my VAT for that period. However after going through my end of year accounts, I’ve noticed that an invoice that I submitted in that period is a copy of another invoice. I would like to delete it but not sure how as the invoice is locked. Is there anyway of doing this? I imagine it’s too late for roll back. Many thanks.

Hello @Redsal

The invoice would need to be credited.
The credit note would then be picked up on your next return to reverse what you have reported to HMRC (Standard accrual accounting).

If it was paid, a refund of the credit could then be processed.
The refund would then be picked up on your next return to reverse what you have reported to HMRC (VAT cash accounting).
