ON THE FORM 8824 DATA ENTRY I AM GETTING A CASH RECEIVED ERROR.
THE FMV OF THE PROPERTY RECEIVED IS LESS THAN THE FMV OF THE PROPERTY GIVEN UP WHICH CREATES A LOSS. THE SOFTWARE IS LOOKING FOR CASH RECEIVED (WHICH WAS $0) AND SHOWING AN ERROR. HOW CAN I OVERRIDE THIS
if the replacement property cost is less than what they sold the original property for, then they may have taxable boot, not a loss.

For example, you are saying they sold a property worth $300,000, and received another property worth $250,000 and $0 cash?
If so, the first property wasn't really worth $300,000. It was worth $250,000 because that is what they were able to get from it.
I have the opposite problem. Received property, including cash, is more than the property given up. There was no cash given up. So there is a gain.
The worksheet keeps putting the gain amount on line M as "Cash Given". And adds it to Line 18, Adj Basis of Like Kind Property Given Up.
What am I missing? It is a related party exchange.
