Hi @29Ar3d10 , I also see a blank description on CA 540 8(z), but the numeric value displays correctly. I have the same situation as you - my 8(z) is a negative value from the federal returns. Did you do any special trick, or does it just fill the description automatically on 540?
I opened another thread here: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/california-state-form-540-8-z-description-blank/0...
