Is there a shortcut key in the Forms Tab to determine how the specific field is being calculated?

Go to Form 8582, then down to "AMT" (under description, left side, under "Regular"). Look at p.2 & p.3 and there should be links (in green) to click on for Statement ##.    It may be there; I don't have a client with F 6251, Ln 2n populated.

You can use a RIGHT CLICK and "Jump to Input" as a start. What field are you concerned about?

Look at the worksheets. I can't say for sure, but there should be one for that.

I think finding or navigating to a worksheet can be a bit of a guessing game of where to find it. I think a tab link would be a wonderful addition to this program. Time is money and our clients don't deserve to get billed for the time it takes us all to find things in Lacerte.
