You are required to do depreciation according to IRS rules. not what was done incorrectly in past years.

You need to advise client if it was incorrect in past.

It is permissible to elect SL when assets are placed in service.

Thank you.  My question is how do I mark that without creating an override?

The program still marks it as an override (I'm not sure why).  But I don't think that one causes an e-file problem.

In the event it does have a program due to that 'override', you can e-file through the Homebase, then check the box to disable error-checking.

Just thinking out loud.  Would you use the "other" method and then manually put the method/life/etc. down at the bottom of the Asset Entry Wks?

That would probably work, and wouldn't need to 'override'.  But it seems like more work.   🙂

I don't see where to select "other".  I'm working in ProSeries Basic.  I don't want to have to reenter all of the data in ProSeries Professional.

Do you know if this is a method available in Basic?  I've never tried that before.  Honestly, in the years I've been e-filing (and always with ProSeries) I don't ever remember having an override.  

Thank you so much.
