If the transaction is entered as the Sale of (a main) Home when the last use was for rental purposes, the user must still go through the Rental section and enter income and expenses, plus indicate that the property was taken out of service as a rental during the tax year (indicating that the assets have been taken out of service as well).
Further, entering the accumulated depreciation in the Sale of Home section requires knowing the exact figure, which would include the depreciation deduction for the tax year of the sale.
I believe, but could be mistaken, that the recommended approach is to enter the transaction, in one section or the other, based upon the last use of the property (e.g., as a home for personal use, in the Sale of Home section; as property for rental use, in the Rental section).
