Don't override the Line J amounts. This is a constant question since what appears on that line does not seem to be correct, however, it typically is correct.
See the attached snippet from the instructions to the K-1:
Generally, the amounts reported in item J are
based on the partnership agreement. If your
interest commenced after the beginning of
the partnership's tax year, the partnership
will have entered, in the Beginning column,
the percentages that existed for you
immediately after admission. If your interest
terminated before the end of the
partnership's tax year, the partnership will
have entered, in the Ending column, the
percentages that existed immediately before
termination.
As long as the allocation is correct, don't stress about the cosmetics of Line J on the K-1.
