How to correct error: Short year beginning date is not between the prescribed upper and lower limits.

[COB1]

Short year beginning date 10/22/21 ending date 12/31/21, but I get an error message.

Are you preparing a 2021 return in 2021 software?

Is this a state issue?

[COB1]

It is a federal 1041

[COB1]

It's 2022 software business software

What are the start and end dates of this return?

[sjrcpa]

Your beginning and ending dates are in 2021 so the 2022 software cannot be used. You have a 2021 tax return.

Thank you very, very much for your help. I think I just found the 2021 software. Hope that takes care of the problem.
