Recorded payment on taxes page even though bank transaction page already had a match . So payment showing twice in the vat suspence account on the Chart of accounts. ?

Hi there, @Flex1.

Let me shed some light regarding the recorded payment on the taxes page which already has a match in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

By all means, it is essential to remove one of the recorded VAT payments in QBO to avoid duplicate transactions which can mess up your entries. Moreover, you'll have to check the VAT page or tax report first to confirm the accuracy of the payment.

It is also advised that if the VAT payment is added from the banking section, it should be undone to put the amount back on the For review page. This will allow you to easily match the payment you recorded in the Taxes section with the one on the banking page. Here's a guide on how to do it:

1. At the left navigation panel, click Transactions
2. Choose the Bank transactions tab.
3. Select categorised, then under the action column, click Undo.

Make sure that the payment has the same date, the correct bank account, and the same amount as the one shown on the "For review" page to conveniently match the transaction. If you can't find a match in the banking section, select the transaction line to open and look for the find a match option.

I'm also adding these resources that'll help you manage and view the lists of transactions, this also include each box on the VAT return in QuickBooks:

• VAT Detail Report
• VAT 100 Report
• QuickBooks VAT error checker FAQ.
