Hi,
This is not true.
Gnucash absolutely allows you to change the tax rates without affecting
posted invoices. When you post an invoice gnucash makes a read-only copy
of the tax tables associated. When you change it, it doesn't change the copy.
If you unpost an invoice it will ask you whether to keep the copied tax
tables or revert to the current ones. This let's you choose.
Happy Gnucashing!

You can't change a rule. This would mess with any other invoices that
use(d) it. (the tax calcs are done on-the-fly, so if the rate changed,
those invoices would be wrong if you tried to view them, edit them, etc.)
Therefore, if the rate changes, you have to create a new rule.

Adrien

We have a problem we ran into using Gnucash. We originally setup our tax
tables for Canada to reflect 8% PST and 5% GST. We then changed the PST to
7% back in 2019. We have an invoice where it posts the right amount to all
the accounts so the accounting side is correct. But when we post the invoice
the tax amount changes in front of our eyes to an incorrect amount. It seems
like it is still using 8% PST. Again it only happens on the printable
invoice and in the invoice details. The accounts and reports all look
correct. We got around the problem by creating a new Sales Tax Rule and
setting it directly to 7% and 5%. Now when we use the new rule and post an
invoice it uses the right amounts. Is this a common problem or is this a bug
in Gnucash?
