When filing a CT600 online to HMRC, you may experience the below error message:

As you can see by the location listed, HMRC are refusing the submission based on the attached accounts, specifically in reference to the values listed and tagged under Property, Plant and Equipment. We recommend opening the accounts file that you have attached to the return to preview the data.

Preview the balance sheet making a note of the values and compare these against the values that are in the Fixed Assets note. There is likely to be a discrepancy between the entries which needs to be resolved. Please see the below example:

Balance Sheet extract:

Note extract:

You can see the notes (which are pulled through from the postings within the current year) show a closing balance last year of £6,688 whereas the balance sheet (which is pulled through from last years accounting period)) shows £6,687 which means there is a £1 inconsistency which needs addressing. 

Once the necessary adjustments have been made within Accounts Production, you can then remove and re-attach the accounts to the tax return and Re-Submit.
