The above suggestion of changing the loss entered on the K-1 worksheet to the allowable loss computed on Form 7203 (basis limitation) does work.  It seems like the software should pick up this limit, which it doesn't, instead of going back into the K-1 worksheet and entering a different loss amount than what the K-1 actually shows.  I do like the suggestion of using a footnote as a reminder in proseries as to why a different loss amount is entered on the K-1 worksheet.

The QBI loss still seems to be an issue.  In my example the QBI loss is equal to the ordinary business loss in box 1 - say ($10,000).  I manually adjust line 1 in the K-1 worksheet to only show the $6,000 allowable loss as computed on Form 7203 and that limited loss then ends up on Schedule E, page II.  The QBI loss is also ($10,000).  If i enter the full ($10,000) QBI loss in the QBI section of the worksheet (line 17, Code V) then proseries shows the entire ($10,000) on the QBI form 8995.  This is not correct since only ($6,000) of the loss is being allowed in the current year.  This should mean ($6,000) of the loss shows up as a QBI loss on form 8995.  The remaining ($4,000) should be both an ordinary unallowed loss carryover and a QBI loss carryover.

To get this to work correct i will need to adjust the QBI loss entry amount to the allowable amount for the current year as computed on Form 7203, but then next year i will need to do a manually entry to the QBI carryforward.  It seems like the software should handle this in a better way.
