Starting sage non vat regd with intention to register

[maffp]

Hi,

I started a shop three months ago and am not currently registaered for vat. I've roughly calced that it would be beneficial for me to register before month six so that I can claim back a lot of the shop fittings etc.

This christmas break I need to catch up on accounts and get started on sage. The question is, how should I enter stuff in sage knowing that I'll be registered for vat soon? I don;'t want to put it through now without vat details and then have to re-enter it all again once registered. Yet if I start sage saying I'm not vat regstered can I then change that part way through a year?

Thanks,
Matthew

You should have option to put vat filling start date.

There isn't such an option in Sage.

Enter all transactions with a tax code of T9 for now then, when you register, you can select the relevant VAT Scheme and start using the relevant tax codes (T1 for standard rated for example).
