I am currently in the process of transferring our accounts over from quickbooks to SAGE.
I decided that I would start from April so I could run the two concurrently and check all the figure work.
I am now ready to do the first VAT but our quater is March - May, I have pulled Marches figures off quickbooks but I cannot find a way to put them into SAGE.
Ideally I would like all the figure to agree, but as it's not the SAGE figures being used this year would it matter if this one quater did not agree or does it affect the year end and into the next year?
Would you not have posted the VAT as an opening balance adjustment on SAGE? You wont of course have all the detail making up the amount, just the total from the opening TBL
you could enter them as a journal onto sage - not really sure I understand yr dates fully - do I take it year starts April. If so why are you putting March on Sage? I presume you have just worded incorrectly and actually meant you are inputting April and May. Good luck.

Are your VAT quarters not running in line with your year? That's ever so easy to change with a letter to HMRC... makes the bookkeeping an incredible amount easier on most software although on QB it doesn't makea lot of difference. OT I know but just my 2p worth
