Why is the previous year state tax refund,should be included in federal income in the current year, not calculating correctly? Defaulting to sales tax.

The program is defaulting to 'sales tax' on the smart worksheet, even though the return was prepared using ProSeries in the prior year.  Therefore the program is showing the state tax refund as not taxable, even though it is taxable.  Why is it defaulting to sales tax rather than the actual type of taxes deducted on the prior year return.  I've seen this on several tax returns.

If you transferred your clients early there was a bug that has since been fixed. Any transferred after the fix is correct.
