Business & farm
I wouldn't expect deleting the depreciation schedule to eliminate your qualified business income (QBI) deduction. It would be primarily based on your business income. You take 20% of your net business income as the staring point to calculate your QBI deduction. It would be reduced by prior year QBI loss carryovers along with IRA and self-employed pension plan contributions, self-employment tax deduction, dividends, capital gains/losses among other things. Eliminating your depreciation schedule would likely increase your business income if anything which would increase your QBI deduction in most instances.
You may have to go back through the business section in TurboTax and make sure you answered the questions properly to designate your business as qualifying as QBI:
Also, after you pay for your return you can review Form 8995-A Qualified Business Income Deduction to see how your QBI deduction is being calculated.
