    Hi lucyg,

     

    The error you're seeing "you must specify a linked account for tax" usually comes up when a linked account hasn't been set for tax tracking in your settings. 

     

    I know it's strange, especially since you were able to send invoices just a few days ago with no issues. Sometimes a setting might get changed accidentally, or a new tax code was added without fully set up.

     

    Here's a link with more info about how linked accounts work: Managing linked categories.

     

    Regards,
