Apportioning K-1 between states

[Harvest]

How do I get loss from K-1 to flow through to one state return and not another? I have a client that is Florida resident with K-1 from passive GA business. They also have a schedule F that does business substantial business in California. I cannot get K-1 income (and carryforward loss) to show up in federal return and GA return and exclude CA return.

If have tried every combination of "N" "S" and US/States. I tried to put in a "State, if different" amount of $0 but it still shows up on state return (but oddly it recalculates if I put a dollar in the box instead of a zero, but I need it to be a $0). I don't understand. Please help me understand whats going wrong here...

zero is no 0 in Lacerte, it is -1 (negative one).

Lacerte has lots of oddities, er cool tricks. Come back often we might be able to teach you a few.  There used to be a useful link to shortcuts. Maybe @IntuitBettyJo could find a new link. In the mean time you could print these and put them by your desk.

Thank you for that! It will be extremely helpful!
