vat calc on flat rate scheme

Hi there, when checking my VAT Liability account it sems that some are calculating the VAT correctly at 11.5% but a few smaller invoices are being calculated at 13.5%?
Any ideas?

Cheers Stewart

Hello Stewart,

It sounds like you changed the flat rate after entering some initial transactions. To see the VAT flat rate that has been used for each transaction, click the 'Up Arrow' to the right of the VAT Treatment drop-box in the transaction window. If the figures still look wrong, please email me your data file and I will have a look.

Mark,

That was it. I think I copied a previous transaction from before 1st of Dec VAT changes.

Many thanks for the very speedy response.

Great product too.

Hello Stewart,

Glad to hear that's fixed your problem. Nonetheless it arose due to a design flaw - copying an existing transaction should not copy the old flat rate. I'll pass this on to our development team to fix in a future release.

Thanks,
