Hi Laurel Quarterly VAT reports are a breeze if your VAT collected/paid accounts are set up as liability/asset accounts. Use the "Income & GST Statement" report present in version 3.0 and above, select income & expense accounts and your VAT accounts.
You'll probably wish to select 'start of last quarter' to 'end of last quarter' in the date filter. Each transaction found is analysed; the sales&purchases, and the VAT parts are pulled out, and reported and summed - either into each account, or per amount type (sales/purchase/vat-sales/vat-purchases). To that matter, if you have EC sales you'll need separate EC VAT liability accounts which can be reported separately. MTD is another issue altogether and there is no inbuilt solution. Unless someone creates a built-in MTD bridge, your best bet for now is to find a suitable HMRC VAT bridging software, and plug the amounts obtained above. Good luck, ask any questions!
