VAT Reversal on Retainer Payments
When a retainer that includes VAT is applied to an invoice, the VAT amount for that retainer is reversed in order to correctly calculate the total VAT amount. This can be tracked with the VAT Calculation Summary report.

Note: The VAT Calculaton Summary report will be available only if VAT is enabled in your Tax Preferences.
