Sage unfortunately have a standard dividends nominal. You can adjust your chart of accounts (or have a second chart of accounts) so that the code doesn't show in the overheads section.
Alternatively, some people set up their dividends nominal code in the balance sheet, which obviously doesn't hit the p&l at all. (if you did put it in the balance sheet, they would build up each year unless/until they were manually "cleared")

Can you advise how you would "manually clear" these from balance sheet?
