Oh, I know about using the tax flag and TXF report. Done it for years. But unless you figure out how to do what Mike has mentioned (consistently over the years), if you flag these accounts as tax-related, they still don't show as income, because you're transferring money from one asset account to another.

That's used for personal taxes as well. I wasn't even thinking about the sales tax features for invoices/bills which is something entirely separate. If simply marking the relevant accounts are not enough to get it onto a Tax Report, then yes, virtual type tracking will be needed.
