Sub s program calculates allowable loss (basis worksheets) when current year operating loss exceeds basis. However, k-1 for each shareholder still shows total loss for the year. What to do?

Can't get the allowable loss to show up on k-1

The basis limits are done on the individual returns.  The Basis Statement is to assist with that.

Thanks - so the ordinary loss on the K-1's on the S-corp return won't match the k-1's on the 1040 return - is that okay.

You'll enter the K1 information as reported then Quickzoom to Form6198 to enter basis limits

Did what you said. Deductible loss on 6198 is correct, but total loss still appears on k-1- line 1 and line 8 on 1040. At risk limitations worksheet won't allow you to enter any information. Know what schedules should look like but can't get there. Can I email you a pdf of the problem?

Thanks for your assistance
