Unfortunately, the IRS rules require you to include accumulated depreciation for your property when it is sold, even if you did not take the expense in prior years. You might need to update the asset before you report the sale.
Here is the reference:
Rental Property IRS Pub 527 Claiming the Correct Amount of Depreciation "If you did not claim all the depreciation you were entitled to deduct, you must still reduce your basis in the property by the full amount of depreciation that you could have deducted."
Note that Rental Property sales are entered in two places under Rental Properties.
