Comment 5 for bug 129988

While I believe this is intended behaviour (the code explicitly mentions an if-branch with the comment below) I do believe this bug can be rephrased as: "the wording of the option "Individual taxes" can be confusing". The option may be changed to a droplist for example stating "Display individual taxes per account" and "Only display total tax").

Code taken from current SVN 2.4.99

[From invoice.scm both simple invoice & printable invoice show the same behavior)
(if display-all-taxes
  (hash-for-each
   (lambda (acct value)
     (let ((collector (gnc:make-commodity-collector))
    (commodity (xaccAccountGetCommodity acct))
    (name (xaccAccountGetName acct)))
       (collector 'add commodity value)
       (add-subtotal-row table used-columns collector
           "grand-total" name)))
   acct-hash)

  ; nope, just show the total tax.
  (add-subtotal-row table used-columns tax-collector
      "grand-total" (_ "Tax")))
