You can prepare your return for this period by following these steps:

2. Click on VAT, then select All Returns from the filter dropdown.
3. Look for the return from the lists, then click on Prepare return under Action.
4. Set the Filing period, Start date, End date, and Filing date.
5. Review the details, then click on Mark as filed when ready.
