@georggeorg It would obviously be nice if TT gave you a drill down ability that actually showed the numbers. But since it doesn't, there's really no simple short-cut. There are many possible places TT could be grabbing values for that entry (right-click, choose data source, and it'll show you every possible feed), so here's a couple approaches:
If you don't have any of the forms mentioned on that form except K-1s, then "Schedule K-1 Partners Share of Income, Credits, Deductions, Etc., line 10, or Schedule K-1 Shareholders Share of Income, Credits, Deductions, Etc., line 9," would be an obvious places to look, and see how close they get to the total you're looking for.
An additional way to work it out is to make some obvious changes in any number you suspect and see whether it ripples through to 4797. For example, change a $17 entry to $500,000. If 2g jumps by $500k, you know the number is part of the equation. Obviously clunky, but doing that in a few spots will likely give you the ability to figure out where the numbers came from, and it can go pretty fast in 'Forms' mode.
Finally, you can always delete a K-1, see how the number changes, and back it into that way.
Sorry I can't provide a better answer to what ought to be a simple problem. The above is just what I've gone through on my own returns when trying to figure out this exact same sort of thing.
