Join nowLet's perform some troubleshooting to get your sales tax rate working in QucikBooks Online (QBO), gilles-clavel.
There are times when a browser's cache data becomes full of frequently accessed websites or damaged. This causes the sales tax rate to disappear when creating a transaction. To better isolate this issue, let's try signing in to QBO using a private or incognito window. This mode doesn't use the existing cache data and helps us confirm browser-related issues. Here's how:
If it works, go back to your regular browser and clear the cache to delete those temporarily stored files and browsing history. The overtime collection of data can create corruption, however, removing this should fix the issue. You can also use other supported, up-to-date browsers to roll out the possibility of a browser-related issue.

I have the same problem, tax disappears from items after changing the invoice date,... randomly. Issue had to escalate and waiting for this to get fixed for two days.
Also some quantities would change when you click Save in the invoice.
