Balance sheet

[beylal]

I am working on both 2019 and 2020 Form 1120S.  When I was partially done with 2019, I transferred the file to begin 2020.  I now have an incorrect number for retained earnings for the beginning balance of 2020.  How do I correct that without starting over?  Or overriding the amount?

Just correct it - Over ride if you have to.

I'm trying to avoid the override so that I can e-file the return.

I have seen warnings for override, but never had it not e file because of it.

Usually when I override a return, I first make sure everything is correct in return including the override.  Then I file it by itself, because it asks you if you want to turn off error checking for that particular trasmission.  It goes just fine then even with override.
