Difference in VAT on two different Reports for the same month

Hi ,

Will appreciate any help on this as to where i am going wrong.

When i go to the Payments Reports Repository and download the Summery reports for as month there is a figure under the heading "Net taxes collected on product sales and services" I am assuming this is the amount of Gross VAT i need to pay to HMRC

But now when i go to Reports>Fulfilment by Amazon>Amazon VAT transaction Report and download the .cvs file for the same month and sum up the column headed "Total_Activity_Value_VAT_AMT" the total it comes to is different to the amount in the above summery report for the same month.

Which one is the correct one for VAT returns to HMRC and why the difference?

Thanks

Hi,

In answer to your specific question, "which one is right?", well they both are( or should be), It really all depends on how you are reporting your vat return basis to the HMRC.

If you report your vat based on the normal Accrual method then the Order based report is the right one. however, if you base your vat submission on the cash basis, then the payments report is the correct one.

Hope this helps.
