Partner notice of electing out of consolidated audit rules in Lacerte

Does Lacerte have a box to mark that prints the partner notification regarding the partners electing out of the centralized partnership audit regime under Section 6221(b)?

You need to develop your own wording (based on the IRS *suggestions*) and enter it globally so it prints as a note for each K-1.

Lacerte added a box to elect out and include the wording automatically in the "Partner Misc" section.  Might look for the equivalent in Proseries

Actually as I look closer the actual box for all partners to elect out is in Other information (Schedule B)

Yes question #25 in schedule B other information prints schedule B-2 fine, but that doesn't appear anywhere on the partner's K-1.  I have to manually add additional information to every K-1 to notify the partners of the election made . . . a REAL pain with larger partnerships

As you probably know, there is no suggested method of notification.

Some could be notified as a footnote on the K-1, etc.

As a result, I doubt this is a priority for the programmers.

Then you should consider posting on a PS thread as this is a Lacerte one.
