The period displayed in Payment Details section of VAT returns report is different from the reporting period. Why?

This happens when statutory payment transactions for tax dues are recorded on a date later than the reporting period. Therefore, the period displayed in the Payment Details section is different from the reporting period. This is in order to include the statutory payment transactions recorded for the tax dues related to the reporting period.

Additionally, you can set the date until which tax payment transactions should be considered in the reports of a reporting period. This date can be set using the option Ctrl+F2 (Pymt. Till Date) in the returns report.

Any payment transaction recorded after the return filing date or the date set using the Ctrl+F2 option will not be included in the reports of the reporting period.
