Supporting Detail doesn't allow negative numbers per line

bzwillin

Most supporting detail screens allow for negative adjustments which is sometimes need to move a value to another line.  I don't need the total of all the supporting detail to be negative, just be able to have negative adjustment against total entered to be a lesser value.  For instance, I might have 4 lines of detail 5000, 10000, 15000, -3000 for a total of 27000.   In know this works on screen 19 for sure for Individuals.  However, it doesn't work in Partnerships (Screen 12); SCorps (Screen 18) or Fiduciary (Screen 24).  I get DATA ENTRY ERROR, value must be between 1 and 999,999,999, which it will but not on a specific line of detail.

This was working in 2019 and prior version versions and was changed in 2020 and forward for some reason.

Here is an example.  Screens 12; codes 8, 1008  However it is not that field.  It is when I click into that field and CTRL E and bring up the Supporting detail.  I want to be able to enter positive and negative numbers in those detail for those screens.  

 

I tried copying and pasting the screen here, but it will not let me.  Please let me know if this is what you are needing.
