Because your K-1 is reporting Section 199A information generated by the partnership and Section 199A information generated by multiple passthrough entities, you'll need to "split" this K-1 into separate K-1s for entry into TurboTax.  Enter one K-1 with only the "box" amounts generated by the "main" partnership, and additional K-1s for each passthrough entity with only the "box" amounts generated that particular passthrough entity.   

For all these K-1s, when you begin the K-1 entry use the same identifying information for the "main" partnership that sent you the K-1 (e.g., name of partnership, address, EIN, etc).

If you can't figure (deduce) that "split" from the information you have, you will need to contact the preparer of the K-1 to get those amounts.

You answer the "Is the business that generated the Section 199-A income a separate business owned by the partnership?" question as it applies to each separate K-1 you enter.   In other words, on the "main partnership" K-1 you enter you will answer that it is "from that business", and on the others you will enter that it is from "a separate business owned by the partnership".  TurboTax will ask for the name and EIN of each passthrough entity.

To enter the Section 199A Statement information for each K-1, enter the code Z when you enter the K-1 box 20 screen, but you don't need to enter an amount on that screen.  Continue on, and you'll eventually find the screen  "We need some more information about your 199A income or loss".  When you check the box next to a category on that screen, a place will open up to enter the amounts from the Section 199A Statement or STMT that came with your K-1.  The applicable category (or categories) on this screen (and the following "Let's check for some uncommon adjustments" screen, if applicable) must be completed in order for your K-1 QBI information to be correctly input into TurboTax. 

To get back to the K-1 summary screen to edit or add a K-1, click the "magnifying glass Search" icon on the top row, enter "k-1" in the search window and press return or enter, and then click on the "Jump to k-1" link.

Here are the "We need some information about your 199A income or loss" and "Let's check for some uncommon adjustments" screens where you enter the information from your K-1 Section 199A Statement/STMT:
