It's great to see you around, @W Everitt,

 

You can manually correct the invoice to remove the VAT from that sale. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Sales menu then tap the Invoices tab.
  2. Locate the invoice to edit from the list.
  3. Click the arrow below the Actions column.
  4. Select the View/Edit option. (See sample screenshot.)

After the correction is made, the discrepancy will show as VAT exceptions in the current VAT return.

 

To learn more about VAT exceptions, see this article: VAT exceptions and reports.

 

Let me know the result once you've tried the steps. I want to make sure you're able to work with QuickBooks at its optimum. If this requires additional help, let me know by clicking the Reply button below. It's my pleasure to help at any time. Have a lovely week ahead!
