Thank you for sharing your experience. I understand how frustrating it is when important details, such as the VAT code and amount, are missing from the modern view of the Profit & Loss (P&L) Detail report and Balance Sheet Detail report, Buzz, especially since these details were so helpful for reviewing VAT in the past. I have prepared a report that outlines your transactions, including the VAT code and amount, to assist you in reviewing VAT.
Please note that QuickBooks Online (QBO) has a report specifically designed to provide detailed tax information for VAT purposes. Let's pull up the VAT Detail Report.
Here's how:
- Navigate to Reports, then select Standard reports.
- In the search box, enter VAT Detail Report and select it.

- Customize the Report period and date range as needed.
- Click on Run report.

In the meantime, you can use the classic view to show the VAT Code and Amount column if you wish to run the P&L Detail report.
I encourage you to send your feedback to our product engineers about adding the VAT Code and Amount columns to the reports. This will help them consider your thoughts for future updates. Here's how you can submit one:
- In the Gear icon, select Feedback.
- Enter your product suggestion.
- Click Next to submit.

Your input can help shape future improvements to our program and system design, potentially leading to the implementation of this report functionality.
I hope this information helps you with reviewing VAT. If you have any questions or need additional help, please feel free to reach out by clicking the Reply button below. I’m here and happy to assist with anything you need. Take care and stay safe!
