Reasons not to Upgrade

There are a number of situations where running the VAT Change 2012 may not be appropriate

  1. If running a very old version of VetSCOPE v7.xx, this updater will not work. Please contact your supplier
  2. If you are quite a bit behind on entering transactions for 2011 and WON'T be entering transactions for 2012 for some time, then only run the VAT Change software when this time comes
  3. If you are quite a bit behind in entering 2011 transactions and WILL be entering transactions for 2012 then RUN the VAT Change software and then switch back on the 2011 VAT rates by opening Prices/Codes/VAT Rates and un-ticking the Don't Show tick box so that the 2011 rates are still available.
    1. NOTE: in this scenario both the 2011 and the 2012 rates will be available. For 2011 transactions it may be necessary to select the 2011 VAT rate manually.
    2. Remember to switch off the VAT rates when finished entering the 2011 transactions by opening Prices/Codes/VAT Rates and ticking the Don't Show tick box so that the 2011 rates are no longer available.

WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU MAKE A BACKUP OF VETSCOPE BEFORE PROCEEDING

 
 
VAT Change 2012 - Ireland
On Sunday 1 January 2012 the VAT will change from 21% to 23%.
 
This will require you to make some IMPORTANT changes to your VetSCOPE system. To aid this process we have designed a small programme that will take the pain out of the transition. 
 
It is very important that you DO NOT change or remove existing 21% VAT codes. 
 
While it is possible to make required changes manually, we have designed a small software programme that, when run with VetSCOPE software, will simplify the process and make the following changes automatically to your system:
  1. It will change all current pricing at 21% to 23%
  2. It will change all analysis codes that are linked to the Sales and Purchases codes from 21% to 23%.
  3. It will change all procedure items from 21% to 23%
  4. It will change the default discount VAT codes in Preferences to the appropriate code in both the Sales and Purchases side. 
  5. It will switch off, but not remove, the existing 21% VAT rate.
It is important to note that these changes will only effect new transactions entered on the system after this programme has been run. Previously invoiced items at the original 21% rate will remain the same.
 
Remember it needs to be run no sooner than 1 January 2012.
