Hi bernardwells,

 

Thanks for your post, 

 

We've got the steps to record a 100% VAT expense here:

 

1) Click on the + sign and select Expense

2) Enter the bill details (date, payment account) and set the VAT 'Amounts are' to 'Exclusive of VAT'

3) On the first transaction line, choose the account you want to use. For the rate, enter £0.01, and for the VAT code, select the 20% Standard code.

4) On the second line, select the same account. For the rate, enter -£0.01, and choose the Exempt VAT code.

5) Scroll to the subtotal - the total of the invoice will be 0. You can then edit the amount in the VAT box to input the amount you need - this will post to box 4 of the return.

 

Please get back to us below if you have any questions!
