You need to delete the amount and leave that field blank to clear the error. It will calculate the Sect 179 amount, but it doesn't allow the deduction because Schedule E doesn't allow the deduction. To deduct Sect 179 expense, your activity must be from commercial property (check your property type) and be a trade or business, using Schedule C. There is a Learn More link that explains it is not allowed when going through the interview. The amount is calculated for QBI purposes only. @user33
