Maryland Activity Worksheet to support Fed/State depreciation adjustment

Thank you very much for such a prompt response.  I very much appreciate it.

Here it is the 14Th and still not updated. Maybe Pro series would like to explain it my clients.

Try Turning off error checking for Electronic Filing. I hope this helps! 

Good Morning all who are experiencing this problem.  I despise the "rant" boards that we are supposed to use to goad ProSeries into fixing their software.  Once again we are left with a response from them that it will be ready "SOON"  I would advise that we all contact them and let them know of the problem.  I really don't think they have a process in place to effectively address any of these issues except to "grease the squeaky wheel".  I understand that we can turn the error check off to file but that really defeats the purpose.  Just like every other issue that has taken them too long to fix, they are once again putting their clients in a bad position.  

I was just reviewing this error to try and determine the issue with this error and I find two returns that had processed through MD without error with Activity Worksheets.  I have both Schedule E activity and Schedule C activity both with errors and accepted depending on the client.  Additionally, the clients that have approved and failed have both losses and profits in those activities.  So far in my review of the failed MD return clients, I don't see a consistency that would cause them error while the others have approved. 

If you are planning to efile the return, then un-check the "enable conversion error checking" box at the time you actually start to efile.  This was suggested on this site, and I was able to efile a MD return that contained these "errors," and it was accepted.  If you are using eSignature, the forms will not produce because of these errors, but you can sign directly into DocuSign, and manually upload whatever forms you want to the envelope.  I don't understand what is going on with the Maryland returns this year, but this is just one of several frustrations.  Heck, the MD Comptroller's website is not yet set up to be able to schedule 2022 estimated tax payments!

I contacted ProSeries this morning and again requested that a ticket be opened.  The Customer Service representative was as helpful as possible but found no record at ProSeries of this issue being addressed or any update as to when it would be corrected.  I sent a sanitized file of a client that had two Activity Wks, one that had the error and the other that was fine. Hopefully this will be addressed soon.

I have successfully used DocuSign with dozens of MD returns without any problems.  So long as there are no errors on the return, the form will populate on the esignature dashboard.  Please be sure your MD return is marked "Return Ready for Efile". 

For those MD returns impacted by the issue discussed in this thread which cannot be finalized for DocuSign through ProSeries, I have been successful signing directly into DocuSign and manually uploading any form that I want signed.  It's a great site, and includes everything that has been processed through ProSeries.

Good luck!

Mike
