Withdraw a VAT profile period
Withdraw an unintended latest profile change only while it has not been used anywhere.
Changing the VAT profile starts a new period and retains the earlier setup. If the latest change was accidental, it can be withdrawn only while no posting uses that period.
Step by step
- 1Open VAT settings and review the effective date and contents of the latest profile period.
- 2Check whether any sale, purchase or other financial action has been posted since that effective date.
- 3Choose Withdraw only when the latest period is unused and directly follows the earlier period.
- 4After withdrawal, check which profile is current again.
- 5If the period has already been used, do not silently alter history. Ask an accountant which correction is appropriate for your situation.
