Disbursements - Showing in VAT Return

Dear All

 

When sending invoices to clients we add in the same invoice, both lines for Sales items (with VAT) and also lines for disbursements (without VAT)

 

The issue we're facing is the disbursements amount are still showing in the turnover element of the VAT return. The only way we've got around this so far is to make two seperate invoices i.e. one for sales items and one for disbursements but this is an extra step and also our clients don't like getting two separate invoices 

 

Does anyone know how we can sort this out and use one invoice but not have the disbursements end up in our VAT calculations

Hi 108 Consulting Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Community. If the disbursements aren't meant to have VAT/included on the VAT return you can use the No VAT in the VAT column for each disbursement line item.

Hi John

 

We don't have the NO vat option

 

Only exempt and zero. Both of these still have the disbursements ending up in our VAT Report

 

The NO vat option doesnt show in our "hidden" vat list either. How do we add this

Hi 108 Consulting I'd be grateful if you can navigate to your invoice > in the amounts are field change to exclusive or inclusive > select the VAT column > select the small drop down menu > select manage rates > ensure that No VAT is activated/toggled on > Done. You should be then able to select the No VAT code on the relevant lines of your invoice.
