New to VAT
Permalink Closed


So nobody has ever explained what to do regarding VAT payments on sage to me.

I am guessing that for the Quarter i would journal what I have in Purchase Tax and Sales Tax and post that to VAT liability and then post the cheque payment to HMRC to VAT liability also?

Am i correct biggrin

If not.....help!

Hi Nicola,

You are correct.  The amount you journal should match the payment/refund with HMRC.

So if you are happy with all the sales and purchases on your vat return, they are the figures to jounal.

Hope that helps.

Nicola,

Yes you can do this via manual journals as you have descibed but the easier method is to use the VAT wizard.

This is found in Modules -> Wizards -> VAT Transfer Wizard.

YOu need to check that the amounts being posted to the Sales tax, Purchase tax and VAT Liability are the same as the amounts shown on the VAT Return used, but if these are ok, it works fine.

Hope this helps.

Ross
