Can anyone know how to create a vat return prior MTD? I have started to use in the middle of the financial year and now it includes all transactions in the exceptions?

Hi usertomasz-szlachta If the transactions that you have entered that are causing the exceptions are definitely before the date of your first filing period then our support team can arrange for them to be removed. We'd be grateful if you can contact our customer support team on: 0808 234 5337.

Hi @usertomasz-szlachta 

It's a couple of years since I set up the last account but you should be able to enter old transactions & close the old VAT periods so that the new (MTD) VAT periods are correct.

From memory, once you set up your VAT start date (VAT > Edit VAT > Effective date for new scheme) you will have a list of old VAT quarters - you can then check them individually & Mark as Filed without sending to HMRC.

It's possible that you will need to disconnect from MTD temporarily in order for the Mark as Filed option to appear.

Hope this helps.
