Partner FID # for K-1 in ProSeries Professional

I have correctly entered SS# for partner on K-1. Receiving error msg that "must either enter a valid EIN, a valid SSN, etc.". I have checked for new updates in case there was a glitch and there are none. I have confirmed that the SS# input is correct.

    I feel like Ive had this happen in the past.  You've got it marked for Individual? and youve continued past that SSN box and filled in the rest of the info and still shows the error?

    Yes, I even deleted the page and re-entered and continue to have the same problem.

    Do you have more than 1 partner input yet?  I think that may be the key....it needs more than 1 partner entered before it will allow the SSN for a partner.

    So ignore the error and Page Down and enter partner #2's info and see if that first error goes away.

    I am entering a tax id on a K-1 worksheet and the SS is valid yet I am getting an error saying the number must be valid. This is infuriating!

    I am having precisely the same problem on 2 partners in a 6 partner partnership and I am positive the SSNs are valid.  They are my father and brother.  This is infuriating is right!  Can anyone help?
