How do I Make my VAT Number Appear on Invoices?

Summary

The following article explains how to enter your V.A.T. Registration number into your Platinum system so it appears on your invoices as required by legislation.

More Information

The V.A.T. number is stored in the Header of each print record used to print invoices. To edit your print records:

• Press <Alt+P> from anywhere in Platinum.
• Press <Ctrl+F1> then click [List] to see all print records.
• Select the first one to edit and click <Edit>.
• Click the [Headers and Footers] tab.
• In "Heading Line 1" you will see 'Vat Reg.'. Move to the end of this line and enter your V.A.T. Reg Number here. This can be in any format you wish, but the convention is to have it laid out in a 3-4-2 pattern such as 999 9999 99.
• Click [Done] and [Accept] the change.
• You will need to repeat these steps on each print record you use to print invoices.

If you wish to submit your V.A.T. 100 online you will also need to enter this number elsewhere in Platinum. Click here and here for help in doing so. If your V.A.T. number comes back as incorrect following this check please Contact your Platinum dealer or our support team on 0116 230 1500 or by using our website support contact page.
