Hello there, @gabriel65.
Let me get you pointed in the right direction to help you edit the date of your previous VAT return in QuickBooks Online.
It's not possible to undo a VAT return once it has already been submitted through Making Tax Digital (MTD). This is the reason you're unable to edit the date. You'll need to account for any changes to a previous period to the current one.
However, if you have already marked the successfully submitted VAT return as filed in QuickBooks but need to make adjustments, please contact our Customer Support team for further assistance. They have the tools to check your account and make adjustments for you.

The Community always has your back, so please let me know if you have more questions. Have a great day and stay safe.
