VAT 201 Report (ZA) - Separate column for invoice number

VAT201 Report (ZA) - A SARS requirement is to have sequential invoice numbers. The invoice numbers are not displayed on the VAT201 report, only the customer reference number, if there is no reference number, then the customer invoice number is displayed. Can we please have a column for the customer invoice number or only have the customer invoice number listed.

    Definitely an extremely important field to be added to the VAT201 report. I thought I was missing something and came upon this feature request. Xero, please fast-track this

    I have a attached a sample excel spreadsheet of how Sage Pastel Partner's VAT reports are downloaded onto excel. I have removed a lot of the confidential info and typed in red extra notes. You can manipulate for your own requirements, but basically the sales Tax invoice numbers show on the report. I have not changed the basic way in which the report was downloaded.

    This is such an important field, I want to know how it was left off in the 1st place and then why is this suggestion never actioned. This voting thing is a blackhole

    To show the invoice number on the VAT report is critical. When SARS do a verification or audit and requests supporting documents, the VAT report with the invoice numbers is mandatory.

    Please fastrack this implementation, if possible.

    Excellent idea the extra column for the Tax invoice number - Karen Maritz

    South Africa - VAT201 - the (sales - Output Tax) Tax invoice number must be shown when downloading the VAT201 onto excel. At present it only shows the reference egs . all our invoices are referenced by month for example "Jan 2023". There is no way of knowing what the invoice numbers are unless you click on each line which is not feasible. You want a record of your invoice numbers when ever VAT is filed. In the event of a VAT audit by SARS, this will be a nightmare. Your Input Tax can still continue as the reference number but not the Output Tax.
