    The program is not allowing Section 179 (partnership with profit) for software why?

    Software is 179 deductible if it meets the requirements this was not my reason for the post.  The Sec 179 does flow to the K form correctly as deductible but does not show up on the depreciation worksheet.  There is no depreciation shown on the worksheet seems odd!

    Which software are you using? You posted in Tax Talk, which is not program specific.

    And some states, such as MD, do not allow 179 for software.

    What category and life did you enter in the depreciation section?
