Hi pmazzuchin-healt,

 

Working with the right language is important especially when you're you're dealing with your tax reports. It's great you're taking advantage of the language feature in QuickBooks. I'll be happy to share more information so you can get back to doing what you love. 

 

When it comes to tax reports, QuickBooks uses the initial language the account was set up in. This explains why you're seeing the report in French after you've changed the language to English in the Advanced Settings. If you've set up certain accounts or products and services in French, I may have a workaround you can use. I'd recommend manually changing the names of those accounts from French to English so the changes can be reflected on your tax reports. You can manually edit your products and services by clicking Settings ⚙ > Products and Services > select the products/services in question > hit Edit. This article here shows you how to edit your Chart of Account. 

 

Give this a try and let me know if this info helps. I'll be here in case you have other questions.
