What am I doing wrong ?

Solar Accounts is correctly working out my VAT due , but in the VAT Return Detail, in the list of total purchases, items are appearing that are marked with the "out of scope - does not affect VAT return"
An example of this is directors wages and a van loan payment.

Clearly I'm doing something wrong but can't work out what !

Thanks

Hi Peter,

That is odd. Please click menu File > Backup, then save the backup file and email it to me along with the ID of the purchase in question.

Thanks,

OK. Sort of solved this.

It looks like I selected the "out of scope" on previous payments, but on more recent payments the "out of scope" has not come up as default and I have just clicked through the entry without checking. Is this probable ?

Hi Peter,

Yes, if you accidentally change the VAT Treatment then that new value will become the default on new payments for that supplier. You will need to edit each transaction and set the VAT Treatment to 'Out of Scope', then click 'Refresh' in the report window.

Regards,
