Partnership percentages

I am using Turbotax business on my desktop.  My partnership has three partners.  I enter that data for each and it says total doesn't equal 100% but it does.  I have deleted the members and re-entered but continue to get the same notice.  I see that the program is only listing the data for one of the partners and the others have blank sheets after name and address.  The program said I could fix it later but when I got to check for errors it again tells me the same thing and to go back to the K1 forms to set it up correctly.  The percentages definitely add up to 100 and it is showing profit/loss only for one partner.  How do I fix this?

I would suggest going into the actual forms section to see if the program has actually completed forms (or provided erroneous data on the form)  for the partners. Today, I was finishing my business return and kept getting error checks on forms which the program generated, and I didn't. I had to review and then delete these forms, in order to complete my return.

Thank you for the suggestion.  I have been to the forms and two of the partner sheets are blank.  It doesn't let me fill in the percentage data on those.  When I go back to the beginning of the program the information I had put in is still there and correct.  It still says not 100%  If there is a way to activate using a page from "forms" , I need to know that if you could help.

Have you tried deleting the forms with no data in the forms section and reentering the data on your return? I have had to do this in the past. Also, if you run an error check and these forms come up with no data entered, you should be able to enter the correct data on the forms in the error check.

I found how to edit the page from form and this issue is resolved.

Thank you

You can check this using Forms Mode in TurboTax Business.

 

  1. Open your return and click the Forms icon in the TurboTax header. 
  2. In the list of Forms in My Return on the left, scroll down and look for Sch K-1 Wks
  3. Click the form name to open it in the large window. 
  4. This form has an embedded scroll bar on the right side that allows you to move between partners.
    Review/edit the percentages at the top right for each partner.
  5. Confirm the totals at the bottom of the form. If they aren't all 100%, go back and adjust your entries so the totals are correct.
  6. If you had an ownership change during the year, note the final column "*Int/Fnl %" represents the percentage that existed immediately after the partner joined the partnership or immediately before the partner left.
  7. Click Step-by-Step in the header to return to the main screens.
