Is there anything additional that I need to enter or checkmark on Form 6252 or Form 4797 to finalize an installment sale?  Thus far, I have entered the Total principal payments and Interest payments on Form 6252 in Proseries.

The asset was sold the date that the installment sale began.  The taxpayer has just been acting as a bank since that date.

How does the program recapture prior depreciation in this process? It was a rental on Schedule E for prior years

If you have a little magic marker, then check Box G in the first smart sheet section of the 6252.  But then you have to wash your screen so just use an x there.
