Hi everyone, thanks for your interest in this idea.
For now, I wanted to share that we're aware some users have the following process to record their transactions. The example uses a vehicle with a purchase price of £1500, and a sale price of £2000.
- Record the purchase of the vehicle on a purchase Bill for the full purchase price of £1500 with a tax rate of VAT Exempt. So the purchase is recorded in box 7 on the VAT return.
- Record the sale of the vehicle on an Invoice for the full £2000 - using the Tax Exclusive option, and then manually changing the VAT calculated to the required amount - £83.33 (i.e. 20% on the profit of £416.87 or 1/6 of £500) by clicking the small plus box above the Tax Rate.
This will mean that you only charge £83.33 VAT for the overall profit figure, and ensuring the correct amounts are reflected in boxes 1, 3, 5 and 6.

The best we have at the moment is to use Products and Services to track stock, set stock items with the same purchase/sale price, then add in the margin at 20% VAT when raising the sale.
The only thing this solution doesn't cover is the simultaneous release of the box 7 figures when the stock is sold rather than when it is purchased - if this could be implemented (e.g. maybe a switch to release stock items on sale rather than purchase) then the system would work.
