New taxes generated by the TaxCloud integration are by default created without an income or an expense account specified. By default, the journal items corresponding to these taxes therefore end up in the default income account, which is usually the 'Sales' account, when they should in fact go to the 'Tax Payable' account. Because these taxes are automatically generated on-the-fly, the user is usually not able to manually specify the Tax Payable account before the journal items are posted, leading to incorrect accounting entries which then need to be manually repaired through the use of miscellaneous operations. To solve this issue, our video on TaxCloud integration (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE-NeRNIWeU&t=616s) tells us to create a User-Defined Default for the account field of the tax.repartition.line model. This sets the default account with which new taxes are created. However, this information is missing from the documentation. This PR brings the documentation up-to-date by explaining how to create this User-Defined Default that specifies the correct Tax Payable account. X-original-commit: 35d773a
