Changeover from Cash Accounting to Standard Accounting for V

[allison]

We have recently changed over from Cash Accounting to Standard Accounting due to reaching the turnover threshhold.
The VAT return has been calculated using the Standard Accounting - invoices raised since change-over.

I realise I need to manually add to this the monies received from the old cash-accounting invoices.

My question is ~ is there a report which I can run off to show money received against individual invoice numbers (I know which SI was first raised under standard accounting).... or any suggestions how to find this info. would be very helpful.
Thanks

The monies you received from the old cash-accounting invoices is not what you need to add on.

You need to add on the vat on all the old invoices raised under cash accounting as it is all now due.

(You need to do the converse for supplier invoices, all vat on supplier invoices can now be claimed back even if you have not paid them).

The guide on this are your VAT control accounts.

If you run a vat return for all dates, the values on it should include all VAT liabilities and all VAT assets, these should be the same as appearing on the sales and purchase VAT control accounts.

Now in real life, some people do not manage their control accounts well, they never do the journals etc. If you are in this group then, the balances will not match but the net amount sales - purchases should.
