Where to enter sale of business with goodwill allocation in Proconnect?

I have client that sold business in 2019. The sale price mainly broke into two categories, Furniture and Equipment (FE), and Goodwill. I tried to find where to enter the goodwill portion. I think the FE should be entered in the "Dispositions (Sch D, etc.) but could seem to find where to enter the goodwill part.

Goodwill is a capital asset and would be sold in dispositions. 

F&E will be entered in dispositions, but should go to 4797. https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/form-8949/help/form-4797-input-for-sales-of-business-propert... possibly with IRC 179 recapture. 

Don't forget 8594 https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/banking/help/8594-generate-bulk-sale-asset-acquisition-state...
