Hi @mrabitt ! Thanks for joining community.

Do you mind expanding on your question? I am not sure I quite understand what you are asking.

Employee business expenses are no longer deducted on federal Schedule A, NYS doesn't follow this new rule, but information flows to NY from federal. what exactly needs to be done to make this adjustment, these expenses are directly connected with income from NY

On the Federal Side you would still want to use the 2106 for the Employee Business Expenses, however at the top in the Form 2106 Part I Smart Worksheet you would want to check box C5 to indicate this Form 2106 has expenses for "Miscellaneous 2% itemized deduction (State Only)". Once this is checked the program knows to not include it on the Federal Return, but to pass it through to the states.
