Schedule A Non Cash Contributions

If I enter $250 on Line 12 of Schedule A for other than cash donations it does not get added to the cash donations on Line 14. This worked for me on previous returns, but I just noticed today that it is computing correctly.  If I fill out the charity info (name, address, etc) then it computes, but you should not have to do that if it is under $500.  Anyone else having this issue?

seems like another failure on PS' programmers.

So enter one charity (maybe See Client List or similar) for the total if below $500 and you don't have to fill out the rest of the purchase date/cost, contribution date, etc.  It just needs to be in the Smart Worksheets to to flow properly.

To me it seems like a PIA to put in the worksheet beforehand. I have my entire career put the number down. For those that have many charities, I do use the worksheet.

 

It is what it is.

The direct entry on line 12 prints on return but does not get added to total deductions.  Definitely an issue!  On the California return the amount also prints on line 12 along with any entry on line 11 for cash.  Line 14 then says add lines 11 thru 13 & shows a total that doesn't add up properly.  I paid nearly $4,000 for this software, I don't want to explain to my clients that the program can't add.  Really unhappy with this change in the input.
