The VAT period-end dates for the current and the next financial year are held in a file NL.dates which can be edited using this program. The number of period-end dates prompted for will be dependant on the Periods system parameter, System Parameters 'VAT periods per year'. When the program is selected from the menu, a table of the current financial year values will be displayed. Beware that any changes to the VAT period end dates should be undertaken after discussion with support. Normally the period end dates are only altered at the time of the VAT year end rollover.
To access the option:
1. From the Autoline master menu select the Nominal Ledger option and the company you require.
2. Select System Maintenance option.
3. Select the VAT Period-end dates option.
The VAT Period-end Dates Form is displayed.The period-end date for the current VAT period is highlighted. By clicking on either of the two years [e.g. 2003] in the form of buttons from the menu, the list of VAT period-end dates for that year can be edited and saved. Select the date you wish to amend, change the date, and save it by clicking the Save button.
Click the Exit button to quit to the System maintenance menu.
