No data to process
What the portal shows
No section data or Gross Turnover is available to process the request
The portal found nothing to file — either the sections are empty or turnover is not set.
What it means
The submission carried no invoice data in any section, or aggregate turnover has not been declared for the year. This appears when a NIL return is attempted through the wrong route, or when a filter excluded every invoice from the generated file.
Common causes
- A NIL return was attempted without using the NIL filing route.
- A date filter excluded every invoice when generating the file.
- Aggregate turnover for the preceding financial year was never declared.
- The data was prepared under a different period than the one being filed.
How to fix it
- If the return is genuinely NIL, file through the NIL route rather than uploading an empty file.
- Check the period filter used when generating the file.
- Declare aggregate turnover on the portal if it has not been set.
- Confirm the period selected on the portal matches the period in the file.
