Hi,
I have posted some VAT journals to adjust for sales VAT which was originally incorrectly posted. We post our revenue as journals. The journal debits that i posted to adjust are appearing in BOX 4 which means the Box 1 is incorrect as well as box…

I have the problem noted in article 28765, ' VAT Return Too Old: Invalid Period – You cannot submit a return over 12 months old' when trying to submit our VAT return as we use the annual accounting scheme. For the past few years this has been no real…
