- Enter a Description. Note: A Description is required to specially allocate the amount to partners (discussed later).
- Enter the Amount. Tip: If you are trying to zero out the ending capital account for a departing partner, this amount should be equal to the ending capital account balance on the Partner's K-1.
- Hold down Ctrl+E in, Other decreases (+) (Ctrl+E).
- Enter a Description. Note: A Description is required to specially allocate the amount to partners (discussed later).
- Enter the Amount. Tip: If you are trying to zero out the ending capital account for a departing partner, this amount should be equal to the ending capital account balance on the Partner's K-1.
