correcting a invoice/vat mistake

  • January 15, 2021

Hello Community

 

I have posted and been paid for an invoice.

The vat covering the period the invoice was posted in has also been filed.

The amount was correct and the vat which was filed was also the correct amount.

My problem is - the invoice showed some incorrect information and 

I would like to amend this, but I'm unable to do so as it falls into a vat period that has been filed.

Am I able to delete the invoice and re-issue one with the correct details?

Thanks in advance

JD

Hi JD01234,

 

Thanks for joining us here on the Community, 

 

Deleting a transaction that has been filed with QuickBooks will create an exception of the filed VAT amount on the open return (you can see these by selecting the drop-down beside Prepare return > View exception details).

 

When you add a transaction into QuickBooks with VAT that is dated prior to the start date of the open return, this will again create an exception of the VAT amount, meaning if you delete add the invoice back in with the same amount of VAT the overall net impact to your exceptions will be zero.
