Historic CIS entries

Hi there, Basia. 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. In QuickBooks,  the date of the first period is determined when you activated the CIS function. You can enter the historic transactions within QuickBooks. However, you'll have to make the previous submission via HMRC. 

In addition, you may check this article for more details: CIS in QuickBooks Online. This also includes the reports you can generate for HMRC. 

If you're needing any direct assistance, please reach out through our support channels where our agents are able to set up screen shares to guide you through this. 

Additionally, here are some helpful resources related to CIS in QuickBooks Online:

• Submit CIS in QuickBooks Online
• Record deductions suffered under CIS 

Stay in touch if you have any follow-up questions or concern in QuickBooks. I’ll be right here to assist further. Stay safe!

Thank you for reply but this does not answer my question.

It is not possible (or I am missing something here) to make historic cis submissions to HMRC as the system ONLY gives this possibility from the month CIS was unabled.

We have started our CIS in July but we would like our QBO to start from the April

thank you B
