Maybe if you could be more specific we could help.
Are you doing a VAT return for the first time or do you have a previous bookkeepers VAT workings from previous years. You could look at the previous workings for some guidance if they are available (and if they are correct).

Hi all, I have a question with regards to VAT, I am primarily payroll and HR although have since taken over the books. The Ltd company I work for uses sage 50 accounts plus and I am now ready to generate the vat return for this quarter, I am a wee bitty stuck however, I have ran an audit trail focusing on the VAT just to ensure that everything I have input is correct and there appears to be numberour comments such as:
High VAT Purchases (VAT over user-entered amount)
Non-Standard Rated Purchases (VAT over user-entered amount)
Sales with VAT rate less than 16% abd Credits with VAT rate more than 19%
I am completed thrown with these comments and inspecting each account that relates to these comments I can see no error and all use 20% could anyone please shed some light on this, and perhaps explain what these mean, I feel a little out of my depth however "thrown in at the deep end" is this companies policy, so I am on my own.
