This has now been amended in the software.

When users change this VAT rate they anticipated that all of their stock items would display in their invoices with the updated VAT ammount, however this VAT rate only applies to new stokc items.

We have made this clearer by adding in; 'only applies to new stock items' beside the VAT setting in TM2 Options.
This has now been amended in the software.
