Reviewing custom data cleansing check results

Once a calculation has been run for a VAT Return obligation period, the results of any custom data cleansing checks, including those with automatic treatments applied, can be accessed in the VAT Return contents tree on the Preview and analysis tab via Transactions -> To be reviewed contents tree location.

For custom data cleansing checks with automatic treatments applied, you will see that they are coloured green signifying that the check has been run and the results dealt with using the treatment specified.

To view the results simply click on the view data icon at the end of the row for that check. In the data view of the custom data cleansing check you have the option to manually change the automatic treatment applied. The following options are available to you:

• Remove: Choosing this option will remove the transaction from the VAT Return completely, in a similar manner to Exclude but is typically used for removal of errors, rather than excluding for more nuanced reasons such as intra-group transactions.

• Allow: Choosing this option will ensure the transaction is processed fully within the VAT Return. If the transaction was previously blocked, excluded or removed, allowing will ensure that treatment is reversed.

• Block: As per the automatic treatment option, choosing this will ensure the VAT for a transaction is not included in the VAT Return.

• Exclude: As per the automatic treatment option, choosing this will ensure the transaction is excluded from the VAT Return and the VAT and net amounts are therefore not included in the VAT Return.

If no automatic treatment was applied to a custom data cleansing check, and the report results only option was used, then you will see that the check is coloured red until the results have been reviewed and any manual actions taken to ensure the correct treatment is applied.
