Re: [GNC] Help please. Upgraded from 2.3.4 to 4.12. Worked fine. But database does not load. Win 11.

Just an observation, from the depths of history... IIRC, 2.3.x I think was a development series; unstable and for bug testing and so on, and for "expert" users only (ie not me) it feels to me that having that running on win11 is unlikely, I'm not even sure that 2.3 release were for windows -

Re: [GNC] UK - Making tax digital

Yes, I have been using an inbuilt GC report to generate the VAT numbers into a CSV file, and linking that into a (commercial) spreadsheet bridge to actually file VAT since the first wave of MTD happened a few years ago. The spreadsheet is called something like "fileMyVatReturn", is in ODS or

Nothing so simple in the UK the HMRC annual period ends on 5th April each year... Not the most obvious date, I know. AIUI, It is all to to with a legacy from the Roman Empire, with Popes and Kings who thought they were more in charge in the year 15-so and so. (or maybe 13-so and so)

Re: [GNC] Cash Accounting Method

Just £0.02 that came to mind upon reading your message, Steve. If you are on Cash basis, then (strictly speaking) there is no need to ever have A/P or A/R accounts and ageing in your books. If you want to create your invoices in GC, have you considered trying a workflow whereby you do not post

Re: [GNC] Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Tax Self-Assessment

Hi Neil, MTD for VAT for turnovers 85k+ (IIRC that is the compulsory reg threshold) is fine and I've been "doing it" that way for a year or two now. I think the report is called GST report, (but may be mistaken on that,,,) When you say MTD for Self Assessment, I'm not sure what you mean. SA
