Thanks! I found the bug fix you mentioned and build gnucash on my Debian 9 machine with the corrected code. It works perfectly!
Thank you!

I have an existing GnuCash file from 2018 that I would like to modify to start using the the Tax Reporting features of GnuCash. It doesn't appear to be working. Here is what I have tried. Edit -> Tax Reporting Options I EDIT Income Tax Identity to Individual (U.S. Form 1040) and enter a name like "Tax"; select an expense account; click Tax Related checkbox; I pick a form from Schedule E on the list; and I click OK. When I view the accounts tab, the Tax Info column displays "Tax Entity Type Not Specified". Also, the Tax Report from the Reports menu comes up with no data (it says I need to enter the Tax Report Options dialog to set up tax Entity Types). I see a few comments about the tax stuff not working from time to time, I am wondering what the latest is in version 3.3. Any ideas? Thanks everyone!

(I’m using MacOS) As a side note, I did notice how annoying it is that one can’t assign multiple accounts to be tax related without exiting the dialog. Clicking ‘OK’ closes the dialog and the user has to go back to Edit > Tax Reporting Options, find the next account, mark it tax related, choose a form, click ‘OK’, rinse repeat. It seems to me there should be an ‘Apply’ button that is missing. Regards, Adrien This is a known issue. If you entered Tax Name and Tax Type in an earlier version, the data persists. There was a problem in the generation of the Tax Report but that was fixed in the latest release. So if you had already entered the Tax Name and Tax Type earlier, you can generate the Tax Report. However, if you hadn't previously entered the Tax Name and Tax Type, the current release won't save it (it's a bug). The fix for the bug will be available in the next release.
