Is the199A complex worksheet et.al working for Partnerships, and S-Corps? 

I have spent hours in the software, and online following instructions, but it is not calculating and/or pulling through to the QBI Deduction Summary, or the 1040.  The only schedule that pulls through is the Schedule C.

There are community responses indicating that it is NOT working, and there are responses that say, "follow the instructions and it will work.”

Intuit, kindly give us a nice clean answer so we can either stop banging our heads against the software or educate ourselves more thoroughly.

Maybe you're misunderstanding what those posts are asking about.

Do Business returns that issue K-1s  now include the QBI information on the K-1s? YES 

Is the 1040 ready to accommodate those K-1s and compute the QBI?  NO

Sch C, E and F all work, just none of the K-1 computations, yet.

Thank you, very helpful!  I am wondering if you are with Intuit?  And if NOT, how did you come to have the knowledge to answer this so clearly, comprehensively, and confidently?

You're welcome!  Yes, I spend far too much time here!  

The K-1 QBI issue is/was 2 different issues, so I'm sure some posts abut it were saying "just follow the instructions and it works" was probably referring to the K-1 including the info...the ones that say it doesn't work, were referring to the 1040 being able to compute QBI from a K-1.

Some questions concerning K-1s and QBI might not have explained exactly what they were asking well enough and were interpreted differently by those that commented and answered, leading to confusion as to what is correct.

Any idea when the K-1 QBI functionality will be working in 1040?

No.

That's as clean as I can get it without getting a jug of bleach out and scrubbing it.

"....or educate ourselves more thoroughly."

I'd go that route, even when the software IS up & running.  I'm not trusting the software this year nearly as much as I have in the past.

Nope, never trust any software until it jives with how I'd calculate things manually.  And if it's any different, I'd double check the logic to see whether I got it wrong or the other way around and why.

Thank you, and this helped enter the data, but I could not see that it helped to understand why the values were not pulling through to the QBI Summary and 1040. Thank you again.

We are *all* just users of Intuit software, just like you.  Except for the occasional employee/moderator that stops by, and they are so identified by their "handle".
