@Bsch4477  Where did you find that code?  Is there another list?  It’s not on the Schedule C instructions.   There was another user with a code not on Schedule C list and Turbo Tax rejected it.

Here are the IRS instructions for Schedule C.  Business codes start on page 19.   If you can't find a code that applies, you can enter 999999.
