I am not sure what I am doing wrong yet but my sales tax rate recently changed and I wanted to change it in FA VERSION 2.2.6/7 but I am unable to change the tax rate from 8.375 to 8.875. An attempt to update the rate will give the following message: Selected GL Accounts cannot be used by another tax type. Does this mean  I have to create new account for every new rate?
Please help here.

I think your host is taking too long to load a page and the Ajax will time out on you. I used to have similar problem until I switched to a different host. So far for me this issue has gone.

Was this issue ever resolved? If so, someone please help as I a faced with the same problem. Updates to 2.2.1 solved the problem with 2.2 that I had previously experience. Now,

"Cannot retrieve exchange rate for currency as of 12/02/2009. Please add exchange rate manually on Exchange Rates page".

This error message is driving me naught as it appears in sales entry, purchase and payment entry.
Anyone that has solution, please trip in.

My FA use only one currency which is the default currency and exchange rate update is not checked, I wonder why this is a problem after the upgrade.

FA expert please come to the rescue. Thanks in advance.

itronics, was kind enough to help me. He promised fix is on its way on the next release soon. So be patience for the next release.
I hope this helps.

I just made a little progress, when I set debug to 1, it let me enter sales or direct invoice but the new invoice created will be printed with an invoice previously created for a different customer. Say, I create direct invoice for customer A now, the new invoice for customer A will be printed on customer D invoice which was created several months ago. There is surely refrences mismatch case here. Anyone with Idea how how to solve this issue will be kindly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Create an item or service with zero price and service category . When you create a direct invoice, then you enter the invoice or bill amount. I hope this help.

Thanks guys for the contributions, here is what I did, created a new db and restored data from backup. Make sure that no JE post dated on 12/31/2007. Booked my JE to transfer revenue to Retained Earnings dated 12/31/2007. Now, when I run a report for from 01/01/07-12/30/2007 I was be able to produce my P&L  for 07. The Balance sheet report now prints and my 2008 opening balances is accurate. I didn't know why I got the weired outcome before. My BIG thanks to Joe and Itronics..
NOTE: Although it is a matter of choice, I think I preferred your second choice Joe, creating a Year end clearing account make it easier and eliminate JE error.
My fear was that since the account was not closed out account by acount with JE, the year ending balance (R&E accounts) was going to roll forward to the following year. NO, my thought was wrong. Revenue and Expenses balances doesn't carry over. THIS IS GOOD. Thanks guys.....
