What specific balance sheet line is the number appearing on, and what type of return are you working on?

Form 1065 Balance Sheet Line Buildings

The quick and easy answer is to override the ending balance by making an entry in the ending column of the Balance Sheet input screen.

ProConnect automatically generates the ending balance by taking the beginning balance per balance sheet input screen, adding any current-year additions recorded in the depreciation input screen, and subtracting any current-year dispositions recorded in the depreciation input screen. There should be a worksheet showing what it thinks are current-year additions and dispositions. You should be able to identify the issue from that worksheet.
