Preparing the group member VAT Returns

When you are ready to start preparing the group’s member or representative VAT Returns, click on the group's entity name from the Entity management screen.  

This will take you to the group entity dashboard.  Under the Members Summary section, you will see the group Representative member along with all of the group members. The status column will tell you what stage each of the VAT Returns are at.  

  1. To prepare a VAT Return, click on the group member’s name or the Representative member’s name (as appropriate).

  2. This will take you to their entity details screen.  From here you can choose to prepare the group member's VAT Return using AlphaVAT or the AlphaBridge template or upload feature. Select the method you wish to use. Please refer to the following help sections for more information on preparing your VAT Returns.

  1. Once you have prepared your VAT Return you will be taken back to the Entity details screen where you can view a summary of your VAT Return. You will need to click on the Mark as ready to consolidate button, so that the group entity details are updated to say that your VAT Return is ready to be consolidated into the main group VAT Return.  

  1. This will display a ready stamp, confirming that your VAT Return for this entity is ready to be consolidated into the final group VAT Return.  

  1. If you need to amend your VAT Return, you can do this by selecting Edit calculation button (if you prepared your VAT Return using AlphaVAT) or by amending your AlphaBridge template and re-uploading it to the system. Amending your VAT Return using either method will override the Ready for consolidation status and you will be required to select Mark as ready to consolidate again..

  2. On the group entity dashboard, the members summary will be updated to show that the VAT Return for your group member/representative member is now ready for consolidation. This summary will also show the method used to generate the VAT Return.

  1. This process should be completed for all the other members of the group.
