Wrong information in vat return

Support
1

Hi
I have just completed my first VAT return using Quickfile where I had one item of VAT to claim back.
I will have very few transactions during the year.

I set it up as a Sales invoice and should probably have set it as a Purchase as instead of being due £50 Vat back, it is showing that I Owe £50!!

How do I amend it?
Should I go direct to the VAT office or can I amend it through Quickfile and resend it?

Thanks very much for your assistance.

Hello @Fred

As the return has been submitted already, you would have to correct this on the next return (as you can submit a period twice).

To correct this

  • Open the invoice and click More Options > Credit Note
  • Save and refund the Credit Note
  • Create a new Purchase invoice, Save and Pay the Purchase invoice on the same date

The next return will show the new credit (reversing the original) and the new purchase invoice.
