How Delete Sale of Business Property

[dtcbnd03]

I can not delete form 4797

If you are trying to edit or delete business assets that you showed as lost or sold, you must go into the business you claimed them in. Then go to the business depreciation section and go through the questions and fix your answers and amount. It will not show you the amounts you entered in that summary section. You have to go into the detailed sections.

Nevermind, once I filled the info back in, the Sale of Business Property info repopulated :(

Any luck getting this fixed?

Need help, can't fix it either

[fairlittlewarrio]

For me, the Sale of Business property number was being populated from an ordinary gain in an investment K-1 (which was entered in a completely different section).

I've tried that multiple times and it does not work. I've searched online and there appears to be a glitch in the system where if you enter the sale of a rental property on accident you can not delete it later on. Any other suggestions?
