I believe this was removed some time ago because of difficulties in determining what was taxable for the line items in the AR/AP reports (it was causing problems for some customers, though this was in part user confusion). > > Can someone who understands the code-base comment on whether we will > see a fix for this either in 1.2 or 1.3 ? What we really need is more discussion about desired behavior here. Since it was in 1.2.0, I think we could fix it in stable branches without raising too many concerns. One option would be check boxes by each line item and radio buttons by the taxes so that one could select each tax individually.
