    • Rate code – A one or two character code that identifies the VAT rate, e.g. S.
    • Rate Name – A name to identify the VAT rate, e.g. Standard.
    • Rate Percentage – The VAT rate e.g. 20.
    • Inclusive – select if the rate is an inclusive rate.
    • Used – select if the rate is in use. Clear to put the rate out of use.
  5. In the VAT treatment list, click the VAT treatment that applies to the rate.

    Note: Selecting the wrong VAT treatment will change which transaction detail lines contribute to which box of your VAT return. The wrong VAT treatment will make your return incorrect.
