Let me help you view your quarterly VAT returns, theammer.

 

It's possible the entered bank transactions don't have assigned VAT codes on it. When this happens, it will not be posted on the VAT reports and returns. We need to open per transaction and manually enter the VAT codes. Then, go back to the Returns tab and choose the All returns option to see the current quarterly VAT return.

 

If the entered transactions belong to a default VAT code, you can bulk assign them in the Chart of Accounts.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Accounting on the left side menu.
  2. Select Chart of Accounts.
  3. Choose the Chart of Accounts you'll want to assign the same VAT Code.
  4. Click the Batch Actions then hit Set default VAT code.
  5. Tick Set default VAT code and tap Apply.

To submit your VAT return, just refer to this article for the steps and details: Submit a VAT return in QuickBooks Online.
