Wife died in August 2021 with both taxpayers making gifts to family member before death. Would like to use gift splitting before death.  Surviving spouse made additional gifts after death to family members which should not be split. How is this handled by Lacerte?

THINK that the input for that is in Screen 7 > Override [O] use Only If Necessary  > Gift split: 1=yes, 2=no

I have not played with it to confirm.
