I appreciate you for coming back to the thread to add some clarification about your concern, russd178. I'll be sharing extra details on how submitting income details to HMRC works via self-assessment. Then, I'll ensure you can present your VAT information smoothly so your account stays accurate.
It’s important to record every time money goes in or out of your bank account so that your books balance at the end of each tax year. That said and as mentioned above, you'll need to have two different QuickBooks Self-Employed accounts, one for Self-Employed and one for Landlord. Each account will need to have a separate and different email address. Then, having a different account won't confuse HMRC or would be wrong in the calculation of your taxes because you'll have to set up HMRC/MTD Government Gateway (G.G.) accounts.
Additionally, you can submit via MTD using different QuickBooks accounts for a single VAT number but please know that not for the same period. For example, if you've successfully filed an MTD VAT return for the tax period from 1 to 31 January 2021, then you can't file the VAT returns for the missed period before these dates. If you wish to file the VAT return before that period, you need to use the QuickBooks trial edition to submit the missing period.
