We do not have a reference guide for diagnostic codes. Give the text of the diagnostic and we might be able to help.

NOL: The program doesn't automate the limitation of post-2017 net operating losses to 80% of taxable income, before taking into account any NOL deduction. You must override the amount of post 2017 NOL carry-forward absorbed this year to it does not exceed the 80% of taxable income limit.

There is no NOL prior to 2019

I believe you have acknowledged the accuracy of your data and you can therefore ignore the warning. https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/help-articles/help/lacerte-fatal-diagnostics/00/40468

I have the same diagnostic, but this return (2020) DOES have prior year NOLs that have carried forward from 2018 and 2019.  What is this instruction saying to do?  Do I take 80% of current year taxable income and reduce the NOL being carried forward to that amount?  What if this current year is also a loss?  Instruction is fuzzy and I appreciate anyone who can provide clarity.
