16:51:15 <tedcx> There is an account named "Expenses:Job Expense" that doesn't show up on the Edit->Tax Options->Expense tree. Looks like a bug?
16:52:17 <warlord> Is it a placeholder account?
16:52:35 <tedcx> No
16:53:07 <andi5> tedcx: is it of type expense?
16:54:21 <tedcx> Yes its between Interest and Laundry/Dry Cleaning. The tax related checkbox is checked on the account->edit screen
16:55:59 <andi5> as a child of Expenses it may nonetheless have type income, just a wild guess
16:56:04 <tedcx> Aha - I have it. It was listed as "Income" on edit-account although it displayed in the Expense tree.
16:56:11 *** mcepl has joined #gnucash
16:57:04 <andi5> tedcx: is that account shipped as part of the template trees?
16:58:07 <tedcx> No, I added it in. It shows up now on the Expense tree for Edit->Tax Options.
16:58:22 <andi5> ok
17:00:24 <tedcx> New subject. Are you aware that there is severe unrest in the accounting profession Re: professional version of TurboTax? My B-InLaw's firm spends $10K/year on it and got shafted by the Electronic Filing meltdown.
17:01:09 *** twunder has quit IRC
17:02:09 <jsled> I'd believe it.
17:03:01 <warlord> No surprise to me.
17:03:18 <tedcx> They are looking for options.
17:04:48 <warlord> Unfortunately I dont know of any good ones.
17:04:57 <warlord> There's a dearth of OSS Tax software..
17:05:03 <warlord> Probably due to the liabilities involved.
17:05:17 <tedcx> PS I'm happy as a clam, have 16 accounts from 1/1/06 entered with cost transfers galore.
17:07:00 <tedcx> The firm generally inputs all their clients transactions by hand - from hardcopies and receipts. GC seems to work fine categorizing US Tax Categories.
17:07:28 <warlord> Good.

17:56:50 *** andi5 has quit IRC
17:57:40 <tedcx> where's the mapping that contains the TXF codes like Code "N306" ?
18:06:07 <warlord> Umm... I think somewhere in the tax.scm code, maybe?
18:08:32 <tedcx> Found it in src/tax/us/txf.scm
18:09:21 <warlord> there ya go ;)
18:09:30 <tedcx> now if there a warning Code "N293" has duplicates in 3 accounts: how do I fix it? I've done this before but its been a whils
18:10:38 <tedcx> find . "(" -name "*.c" -or -name "*.h" -or -name "*.scm" ")" -type f -print|xargs grep N293
18:16:43 <warlord> I'm afraid I dont know.
18:16:49 <warlord> I've never used the gnucash tax code stuff.
18:20:45 <hampton> The warning is that you've assigned that same code to 3 different accounts.
18:20:56 <hampton> You'll only find it once in the source.
18:21:03 <hampton> bbiab

19:16:08 <tedcx> hampton: Edit->Tax Options - when +Select Subaccounts is clicked and the 2nd level up on an expense item (eg Insurance) os assigned to a tax account, the Subaccounts are warned with the "has duplicates" and the report doesn't print
19:17:18 <tedcx> hampton: sorry the report did print - its just scrolled down

19:25:09 *** franz has quit IRC
19:33:07 <tedcx> looks like the Tax Report/TXF Report won't use the previous year settings in Edit->Preferences, any way to get last year's tax report?
19:34:04 <hampton> Try the toolbar options button when you're looking at the report.
19:35:12 <hampton> I don't have a working gnucash at the moment, so I can't check myself.
19:36:59 <tedcx> Gnucash crashed. Groan..
19:48:59 <tedcx> hampton: back up and working better.
20:05:31 <tedcx> It would be a good idea to print the Tax Report without warnings..
