What to do

Check Boxes 1-9 and confirm totals match the expected treatment for sales, purchases, EU goods and credit notes.

Before you start
  • Make sure you are signed in to the correct CherryMoney organisation.
  • Check your user role has access to this area.
  • Keep the source information ready before saving the record.
How to complete it
  • Open the menu area named in the step.
  • Enter the required information carefully.
  • Review the values before clicking save, create, approve or submit.
  • Reopen the record once to confirm it displays correctly.
What success looks like
  • The record is saved without an error message.
  • The item appears in the list, dashboard, report or workflow queue.
  • Any linked VAT, payment, client, expense or compliance fields remain visible after refresh.

Fields To Check

These fields affect this workflow and should be checked before saving.

Box 1 VAT due on sales and other outputs.
Box 4 VAT reclaimed on purchases and inputs.
Box 8 Goods supplied to EU member states excluding VAT.

Tips

Use these checks if the saved record does not look right.

Tip

EU goods sales should be zero-rated and affect Box 8, not add VAT to the invoice total.

Tip

If breakdown says nothing found, check the document dates and whether the selected period covers them.
