The trust has 5 beneficiaries who received distributions: 1 individual and 4 charities. When I enter the charities ID number on the K1 it always reverts to SSN format instead of the EIN. Does this matter and if so, how do I fix it?

Awesome help. Thanks for poster. This is the first K-1 I have had with an exempt beneficiary. Poster saved me a lot of time trying to figure this out!
