Thanks, that makes sense.

Evidently, I didn't understand the purpose of the state allocation worksheet. I thought that was the method to allocate income to each state to calculate the state tax owed for each state. 

I see now that the 104 PN has a line to enter the CO taxable amount. Hopefully, the state allocation won't carryover to that form and not allow me to manually change it without overriding it.

I won't know until I complete the client's tax returns - he has missing information I'm waiting for.

Thanks for your help.
