Prior Year Data Entry

[JVP1]

The prior-year data cells in ProConnect do not allow for entry. How can that be changed? Thanks.

No, you can't.  And why would you?  These are numbers rolled over from the prior year return and are there as reference points.

If you need prior year amounts for 2-year comparison, especially for new clients, you can enter those under Other > Prior Year Summary.

[JVP1]

Yes, it is for a new client. Thank you very much.

NP, @JVP1.  If the response solved your problem, please consider marking that the solution to help others who may have similar questions.  Cheers!

The reason you would want to change those numbers would be if you amended the prior year return.  But, it looks like you means of correcting the numbers is correct.
