When I enter the NOL Carryforward on a personal return it asks for a detailed explanation, is there a standard response? Should I put "Small Business Net Operating Loss?"

Publication 536:
You must attach a statement that shows all the important facts about the NOL. Your statement should include a computation showing how you figured the NOL deduction. If you deduct more than one NOL in the same year, your statement must cover each of them.

I am going to use your NOL carryforward statement. My client could use $84572 of NOL, especially from years which are not limited to 80%!😋
