I have an S-Corp that has portfolio investment income.  Does this not count as part of their basis?

The investment itself really isn't any different than a CD in a bank.  The only difference is the earnings being generated from the investment.  Instead of just interest, you could have interest and dividends and possibly a capital gain or loss to report.

Yes it does.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

How does everything look once you have the balance sheet prepared?

The balance sheet balances.  I'm sorry but this is the first time I have had any business do any investments with investment companies, not a CD in a bank.  I have Lacerte to balance with the portfolio income & expenses on the M1 & other sch K items. But nothing really showing up on the K1. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
