VAT Liability GL posting correct but settlement post different

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 90

Hi All,

I have an issue on a customer site where the liability posting matches correctly with the VAT Return submitted but on 2 occasions the 'Calc. and Post VAT Settlement' process has posted a differing settlement to that of the liability.

Has anyone come across this before and are you able to help me solve it/

Thanks

James

    Hi.

    The difference between a VAT Return and the VAT settlement can be due to either an incorrect setup in the VAT or to the posting of journals with VAT enabled.

    Assuming that you are working with the GB localisation and you have the HMRC connection enabled, your VAT return should be correct, your issue might be about manual journals posted with VAT that don't flow to the VAT report.

    I would compare the VAT return to the VAT settlement and go through all the lines to see what caused the difference.
