Where can I add unreimbursed business expenses for a partnership so that it goes into a Schedule E?

I can't get the assets and expenses to generate anywhere on my tax return. I tried to input them under "Self Employment Income & Expenses" but it generated into a Schedule C. I need it in a Schedule E correct?

on the k-1 for the partnership use the Unreimbursed Partnership Expense section 

 

 

to get to this point the is a question on "Describe the Partnership" window

the first question "I am required to pay supplemental ............... must be checked to get to the section. then the UPE question on the next page must be checked yes

 

NOTE

You can deduct unreimbursed partnership expenses (UPE) if you were required to pay partnership expenses personally under the partnership agreement. However, expenses that could have been reimbursed by the partnership are not deductible. To avoid issues with the IRS, the partnership should have a clear, written policy stating what expenses will and won’t be reimbursed.
