Can anyone help with the following.

I have sent a invoice to a client for some work.

The invoice was broken down with my materials and labour and we are vat registered.

The invoice total was £298.90 in quick books.

 

The client has paid £255.90 as deducted under CIS and vat reverse charge and paid £255.90.

How to I record the difference correctly in quick books as the invoice is showing the £298.90 and the bank feed from income is £255.90.

 

Under the CIS the labour excluding var was £215. Materials 34.09.

Totals CIS tax £43 and VAT £49.81 leaving the client to pay us £255.90.

 

I was not sure how to correctly record this in the accounts. Any help would be appreciated?

Thank you for your response. I did not have the CIS part set up in my QuickBooks but now have amended this and the invoice balances correct to payment now.

Hi @Steveleet 

 

If you have CIS setup correctly in QBO & have used CIS Labour (20%) on your invoice for the Labour element it should do this automatically.  The amount due in QBO will be £255.90 (with £43.00 CIS deduction expected).

Presumably, you were expecting the 20% CIS deduction on the labour (you are registered for standard deduction, not gross status)?

 

You also mentioned Reverse Charge VAT (which would be £nil) but you have it calculated at 20%.  If the client is the end-user, Reverse Charge does not apply - use S20 code instead.

 

Hope this helps.
