Why does QB encounter problems calculating sales tax when the customers are set up with sales tax rates.  It will mark some items a taxable and others NOT taxable on the same invoice. After I enter everything it will not save.

    I understand how difficult this has been, cindy. I'm here to provide some details about this matter. 

     

    Upon checking my resources, we have an in-progress investigation about the inability to save Invoices due to the error "We're sorry, QuickBooks encountered an error while calculating tax." With that, I recommend contacting our support team. This way, they can securely get your account information and list you as one of the affected users. You will be accurately notified about the course of this investigation. 

     

    Here's how:
