Correcting VAT report from earlier period

If you discover an error that affects the VAT report of the previous period, you can correct it and resubmit the report to Skatteetaten.

  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.

  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.

Change of VAT period

VAT reports that have already been registered are not affected if you change the setting. If you have started a new VAT report and then want to change the VAT period setting, you must first close the New VAT report window. Change the setting under Settings - Company settings, the tab Accounting settings and then create the VAT report from scratch to ensure the changes are included in the new report.
