PTPs & QBI - Do we adjust QBI in Lacerte by entering an adjustment into the 20AD field on Screen #20?

PTPs & QBI - An individual receives K-1s from 10 PTPs for 2018. In Box 20AD, some K-1s have income and some have losses. Lacerte is currently netting all the income and losses together to arrive at qualified PTP income or loss for purposes of the worksheet (line 28) that supports the Form 1040, line 9 QBI deduction. Some of the losses are disallowed due to Sec. 469 limitation and are excluded from the individual's taxable income for 2018. The disallowed losses should not be included in QBI income for 2018 per Reg. Sec. 1.199A-3(c)(3) and Publication 535. Additionally, Lacerte does not track the $10,000 loss as a carryforward to a future year.

I was able to duplicate this treatment and it appears the PTPs with losses are not limited.  I've reported this unexpected behavior to our developers for further review.

This sounds like a possible program issue for @IntuitAlicia or @Intuit Austin

@George4Tacks @kkenfield @Intuit Austin I'll take a look at this and see what I can find.  I'll need to review how it's working and how the program is set up to handle this and post an update here.

I am working on a 2019 trust return in Lacerte.  The program is properly not including any disallowed passive losses from PTP's in QBI, but is incorrectly including disallowed  losses from NON PTP partnerships in QBI.
