Correcting deviating date

If the VAT check flags a deviating date, it means that the VAT report you are working with contains journal entries that should have been posted in an earlier VAT report. This happens when you register new journal entries in a period after the VAT report for the period has already been completed and posted.

  1. Stop your work with the initiated VAT report.
  2. Undo the VAT report for the previous period.

You undo a VAT report by clicking on the list under Accounting - VAT reports. When the list expands, click on Actions - Undo. Please note that it is only possible to undo the last VAT report. If you want to undo an older VAT report, you need to undo all reports that have been posted since that one.

  1. Create and post journal entries to correct the errors found by the VAT check.
  2. Create a new VAT report to replace the one you previously chose to undo.
  3. Create a new VAT report for the current period.

Do not forget to submit both the corrected VAT report for the previous period and the new report for the current period to Skatteetaten.
