VAT registration - data input on SAGE

Hi there. 

Obvious question I'm sure but just looking fro confirmation.....


I have a new client who is not registered for VAT but will certainly have to be shortly when they cross the threshold. As we will be claiming the VAT back on past purchases when they register,  I assume Purchasse will be entered with VAT on the T codes from start date and sales without VAT until they are registered? 

Many thanks!!

Not necessarily obvious Ruth, it rather depends when they envisage going beyond the VAT threshold.  If it is likely to be during the same financial year, then yes you could potentially treat the relevant costs with a normal VAT code at the date of purchase.  However, if you are unsure when VAT registration is likely to take place you should treat the expense as non Vatable and use T9.

Personally I would post ALL transactions before VAT registration with a T9 code.  Should some of the input be VAT be allowable after the registration date I would just post it via a journal.

This of course is my personal view!

Isn't this the same old query re. SAGE tax codes again Claire?
T0?
T2?
T9? 
I'm under the impression that T9 doesn't show on the VAT reports at all, so wouldn't a non or zero-rate VAT code be the better option?

Why doesn't anyone from SAGE ever answer our queries?!
