Get your taxes done using TurboTax

This looks like a bug in TT.  Go to Forms mode and select the K-1 Partner worksheet for the MLP that has the Ordinary Gain.  Scroll down to Section D.  The first question says "Does this K-1 include a Section 199A Business?".  ''No' is checked by default.  Switch it to 'yes' and you'll see the rest of Section D populate.  You'll also see the Ordinary Gain is put to use for the QBI calculation.

Note that if you switch back to interview mode, and go edit that K-1 again, you'll see several questions suddenly added to the end of the interview, specifically dealing with using the Ordinary Gain for QBI.  That's what suggests to me that its a bug -- it looks like TT hasn't added the prompt yet to ask about this during the interview.

EDITED TO CORRECT:

This solution doesn't always work correctly.  As pointed out below by tiger425, Section D is the correct place to handle.
