Other expenses glitch

[Nick3333]

I keep getting the message right before I sign and file stating

"Schedule C (Carpentry and Construction): Other Expenses Amount must not add up to a negative value. Review entries for expenses incorrectly entered as negative values. If negative values have been used as adjustments to reduce other Line 48 expenses, the adjustments must not reduce the total below $0.

Other Expenses Amount_____"

Here's the problem. EVERYTIME I go to enter a new value for other expenses amount I am put into a continuous loop of the system bringing me back to this step. Its the last step before I file and I can't even clear and start over now because the system won't let me me. HOW DO I CHANGE THIS VALUE MANUALLY!?

Also important to note it's been happening for days at anytime of day so it's not an overloaded system like support told me. I tried it at early morning hours daytime and nighttime for several days now with no luck. It's really frustrating. Please help me fix this

Have you reviewed all your entries for Business Expenses? Have you totaled those entries to be sure none were entered as a negative number?

You do have the option of deleting Schedule C and entering your business info again. Not a great solution, but a possibility.

Hi thank you, yes I did review it And I do not see any negative entries or anything adding up the negative. If possible I'd like to refrain from deleting the schedule C because it was uploaded through QuickBooks but if there's no other option I will do that.  It's just weird because it's saying that it's letting me fix my return but it's keeping in an endless loop of the same prompt

Yes, that's usually the best option whenever you get these kind of error messages. Delete your initial entry and reenter the entire input from scratch relating to particular error in question.
