First VAT return on QB is including all previous sales and expenses

I'm completing my first QB VAT return. I can see the correct values on my VAT 100 report but my actual submission is including all expenses and sales from the past year as if I've never submitted a return which I have, directly to HMRC. I'm out of ideas because I've selected the date range but the submission is also looking back the previous 3 quarters. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Hi Andy, thanks for joining the Community - to rectify this, you can re-create and mark the previous submissions as filed on the system. If you have MTD enabled, you should see a 'Take Action' button which will prompt you to do this. :)

Thanks Georgia. It seems like a huge amount of effort when I should, for my first MTD return, just be able to select a date range that excludes everything outside of that date range. It isn't hard to do but the software just isn't set up that way for reasons I cannot understand.
