Can I get help with a K-1?

I have inputted all the info from a K-1. I have an amount in box 16 I (Interest Expense). The error states "Sch K1 Partnership Additional Information 1: Fgn Tax Code 1 Ln 2 Col 3 is listed but no foreign source income at individual level has been listed on the K1 additioinal info worksheet line 1" Where would I get that information?

In Forms Mode, click on the k-1 partnership in the left pane to bring it up in the right pane. Scroll down to 17 and just above it is a quickzoom to  enter additional foreign info; click on it and it will bring up the additional wks. Scroll down to  "Box 16: Foreign transactions." You should see in Row 2, the interest expense highlighted in red. What TT wants is the Income against which the interest expense was used and you would enter it in the cell above. Use the amount in  Box 16 code B or C, making sure that the amount is at least equal to the entry in Row 2. That should clear the error.
