Hi, Stefan, with this module you don't need to lose old taxes. What the module does is update the current chart of accounts (accounts, taxes codes and taxes) to match with the template. What we do to keep old taxes is simply adding the new taxes to the template, not overwriting the old ones.

Let me put an example:

- On november of 2012, the value-added taxes increase from 18% to 21% on Spain.
- We update l10n_es to add this new VAT for sale and purchase, getting 4 taxes: 18% sale, 18% purchase, 21% sale and 21% purchase (actually, there are more, but this serves for the example).
- Run account_chart_update wizard, and get the new two taxes and, as in the template, default ones are now 21%.

Do you understand it?

As an addition, with this method you can define also new accounts for the taxes (not really needed, but a very common use here in Spain) in the same step (defining the account chart template).

Regards.

P.S.: Why do you say that account_chart_update is included in the MP? I don't see it.
