A C-Corp client converted to be a LLC in Aug 2020.  How can I convert the client to be in Partnership Tax in Lacerte? Or, I need to start brand new client in Partnership tax?

You can export the depreciation from one type and import to the other. You can not convert, so you do need to start fresh.

Be sure to click on the link George provided.

A corp does not just "convert" to a LLC.  A corp is dissolved, with the associated tax consequences.
