I understand the premise of the NOL Carryforward not being automatically calculated in the NOL screen; however, I don't understand why if the taxable income is $0 (and I can't use any of the carryforward in 2023) I can't enter $0 and the program accept it. Please help. I asked the same question last year and no one was able to answer.

In Lacerte and ProConnect, you use -1 to indicate -0-.
And just because taxable income is zero does not mean none of the NOL is used up. You have to do the calculations.
The more I know the more I don’t know.
