The following diagnostic is generating:

The paid preparer indicated on this return does not have a PTIN entered in Firm Information Details. When entering the PTIN, make sure the ""P"" is entered upper case. For tax year 2017, use of a PTIN is an IRS requirement. Some preparers may not have been issued a PTIN in time for filing season. These preparers may use their SSN or EIN for filing returns until the IRS issues their PTINs

Solution:

If this is the only return it is happening on make sure there is no Alternative Paid Preparer Info Entered.
