It's possible that you've unchecked the Other tax options field, regencyorganics.

 

That is why the charges for services are entered in the Box 4. You may need to add a checkmark (✓) on this option, here are the steps:

 

  1. Go to the Taxes tab, and then select VAT.
  2. In the Edit VAT drop-down, select Edit settings.
  3. Under the Other tax options field, select Flat Rate Scheme (FRS) box.
  4. Click Save.

If the same thing happens, I'd suggest contacting our Customer Support Team. They'll verify why this issue persists. Here's how to reach out to them:

 

  1. Click the ? Hep icon, and then Contact Us.
  2. Enter the charges for services are entered in the Box 4 as your keyword.
  3. Click Let's talk.
  4. Choose either Chat or Talk to a specialist.
  5. Continue with the on-screen instructions to successfully contact our support.

The box you suggested is already ticked. This is a reply by Emma M of the Quickbooks team to someone else who asked the same question:

This is a known issue at the moment with the reverse charge code that our engineers are working to resolve. In order to add you to the investigation please contact us via private message on either Twitter of Facebook so that we can take your company ID or email address as the community page would remove this if you post this.

 

Thanks

If this is correct can you tell me when it will be fixed?
