The following diagnostic is generating:efile: a pdf of the schedule K-1 (form N-20) for all partners must be attached. What is the Form and line number that the PDF of the schedule K-1 (form N-20) is being attached to supplement? The form is already sent with the return, does a pdf need to be attached. I can find nothing in the HI form N-20 instructions. Solution:

I've just been attaching the K-1s and selecting the appropriate Hawaii line description.  When I asked support why it wasn't automatically done, they told me it is a new requirement.  Hopefully the program will automatically do it next year.

I agree this diagnostic makes no sense.  The Hawaii K-1s are included with the return.  I'm just going to override it since it's not critical.  I tried attaching a K-1 and the diagnostics was still there.

Absolute worst case...  have you tried suppressing the error-checking for this one file, and then Ctrl+U(batch for Upload) prepping it to send?

I figured out how to get rid of the diagnostic.  When you attach the K-1 as a PDF, you have to select under the Hawaii PDF attachment information "Partner's share of Income, credits, ..." under the Form line or instruction reference.  Once I selected this the diagnostic went away.
