Uploading your file

When you upload your Excel file, AlphaBridge will scan the document for the named cells, validate these and highlight any errors so that they can be reviewed and fixed.

Once this is complete, the file will then be discarded and only the required named cells values will then populate the AlphaBridge VAT Return within the MTD Compliance Portal.

Uploading an excel file

1. Locate and select the entity that you wish to upload your calculation workbook to.

2. On the VAT Returns tab, select the obligation and then select AlphaBridge Upload Excel file option.

3. Locate and select your calculation workbook, then click Open.

4. Your file will now be validated. If there are any errors, these will be displayed and you can go back into your calculation workbook, fix the errors and upload your amended file by selecting the Replace Excel file option.

5. Once your file has passed the validation process, you will see a summary of your VAT Return that you can review and finalise, before submitting it to HMRC.
