Hi Trevorio,

 

 

There is a Tax info tab on the customer information profile when setting up or editing a customer, where you can enter the Tax reg no. or UTR no.

 

The is no section for this on the supplier information however there is a notes section where you can enter these details.

Thanks! I feared as much. Why has the online version not got the valuable features the my old desktop version has? I am very disappointed with my experience so far.

Sorry to hear you're finding the features you're needing Trevorio - our Deskop and Online products do vary significantly, and we're always working on ways to develop both. You can submit any feedback you have within the product by going to the Gear icon > Feedback, this goes directly to our software engineers who may be able to implement these changes in future updates :)

I love that it's 2022 and this still doesn't exist.

 

Practically none of the valuable or even critical feature requests on here have made it into QBO. The feedback reports clearly get ignored. Bugs I've reported are still there.

@basicmonkeyYep, every question people ask they give that response.  To make it seem as though they're answering the question?  Otherwise the text field would be empty?  Beyond frustrating.

Hi Duilleog,

 

You can file a VAT return by setting up a VAT category on your products and services.

 

After setting up VAT, assign a category to the item. Here's how:

 

  1. From the Get paid & pay tab, select Products and services.
  2. Look for the item you want to assign a category, then select Edit.
  3. Select the VAT dropdown, then find and choose the specific VAT that fits your item.
  4. Fill in the necessary information:
    1. For a stock item, complete these steps.
    2. For a non-stock or service item, follow these steps.
  5. Click Save and close.

 

From there, you're good to file a VAT return. I've added this article as your reference: File your VAT return.

 

I'll be around whenever you have questions about filing VAT returns.
