You can run a dummy VAT Return to 30/06/22 which will flag items in a VAT Return. Please follow the steps below showing you how to perform this:

  1. From the DPS SQL Config (available to DPS Supervisors), select Accounts.

  2. Select HMRC Settings.

  3. Untick the Use HMRC Online Tax Service tick box, if it is already unticked then leave it unticked,

  4. Click Save.

  5. From the DPS FD Home Screen, select Nominal.

  6. Click VAT Return.

  7. Set the To Date as the last date of your VAT Return submitted on the bridging software. The From date can be any date as the database doesn't look at this, it works on flagging everything as in a VAT Return as at the To Date and everything prior to that date,

  8. Click Print and save the dummy return for your records.

  9. Click Post.

  10. From the DPS SQL Config (available to DPS Supervisors), select Accounts.

  11. Select HMRC Settings.
