Hi.
I've been trying to generate a tax report for my wife's music-education
business, and I ran into the following warning. It consistently occurs only
on the second generation of the tax report. Also, if I subsequently try to
export it to a TXF file, gnucash crashes. I'm running 1.8.9 on gentoo.
Here's the warning at the top of my tax report:
----------------------------------
WARNING: There are duplicate TXF codes assigned to some accounts. Only TXF
codes with payer sources may be repeated.
Code "N315" has duplicates in 3 accounts:
Expenses:Equipment:Maintenance
Expenses:Equipment:Repair
Expenses:Equipment:Strings
Code "N301" has duplicates in 3 accounts:
Expenses:Gig Gear
Expenses:Miscellaneous
Expenses:Music
Code "N313" has duplicates in 3 accounts:
Expenses:Office Supplies
Expenses:Postage and Delivery
Expenses:Printing:Miscellaneous
Code "N302" has duplicates in 10 accounts:
Expenses:Bank Charge
Expenses:Books
Expenses:Childcare
Expenses:Dues & Subscriptions
Expenses:Education:Camp
Expenses:Education:Lessons
Expenses:Education:Recitals
Expenses:Education:Workshops
Expenses:Medical:Medicine
Expenses:Printing:Workbooks
Code "N294" has duplicates in 2 accounts:
Expenses:Travel:Entertainment
Expenses:Travel:Meals
-----------------------------
I believe that it is complaining that I have set up multiple accounts to go
the same tax form location.
1. What does it mean by "Only TXF codes with payer sources may be repeated."?
Do i need to set up some payer information to make this work? Is there a
document that I missed somewhere that explains this?
2. Do I need to define my accounts so that they line up one-to-one with lines
on tax forms, or is there a way for me to keep finer-grained accounts that
get lumped together for the purposes of the tax report?
I really appreciate any help, especially before April 15 ;-)
Thankyou very much,
David Van Maren
