Error message for business mileage calculation
On the Car and Truck Expenses Worksheet are two line items to enter business mileage; 6a for miles 01/01/22 through 06/30/22, and 6b for miles 07/01/22 through 12/31/22.
I used my car for business use in 2021 and will again in 2023, but simply did not travel in 2022, therefore I have 0 miles to claim in both 6a and 6b. Turbo Tax is flagging an error because the combined value of 6a and 6b is not greater than 0. Is there something to toggle to bypass this error? Can the code be updated to account for this (it seems that something was overlooked in the software validation with regard to this situation)?
In case it mattered, I added a 0 and removed the 0 from line 7 to see if that somehow affected anything and it does not affect the error message.
