58044

The following diagnostic is generating: the program does not automatically calculate the amount of prior year excess business loss allowed in the current year for qualified business income deduction.
Comments

I have calculated the proper amount of prior year excess business loss allowed in the current year for qualified business income to be zero.  A click of diagnostic 58044 takes you to Screen 15, under Qualified Business Loss Carryovers, the bottom field titled Excess business loss absorbed in 2022.  Any positive amount entered in this field will clear the diagnostic.  I entered zero in this field, and the diagnostic does not clear.  The field will not allow an entry of -1, as the program returns a pop-up on screen saying "Value must be between 0 and 999,999,999".  Can anyone help me understand how to clear the diagnostic when this amount should indeed be zero?

Try entering .1 and see if it rounds.

Good thought, but still did not clear the diagnostic. Appreciate the response!

Were you able to clear the diagnostic?
