I am KY resident, but my business is at IN. In FormIT40PNR, I input lived county at KY, worked county at IN. My business net income in IN is loss. FormIT40PNR/SchA/IncomeOrLossSection/GainsLossIncome/StateAmount Indiana business income is  negative number, so it showed empty of principal employment income in SchCT40PNR county tax schedule section2. But my return got rejection for the following reason:

“SCNTY-019-01 - SCNTY-019-01: Line 1B of the CT-40PNR in Section 2, SchCT40PNR/WorkCountyTaxSection/WorkIncome/Taxpayer2Amt, must not be null and greater than zero if the follow exist on IT-40PNR: A. FormIT40PNR/ReturnFormHeader/SecondaryCounty/ResidentCounty is non-Indiana county code (not 1-92), B. FormIT40PNR/ReturnFormHeader/SecondaryCounty/WorkCounty is an Indiana county code (1-92), and C. FormIT40PNR/SchA/IncomeOrLossSection/GainsLossIncome/StateAmount Indiana business income is greater than 0."

How to fix this? Thanks.

Delete your Indiana return and re-enter it.  Pay careful attention to the county codes and the questions regarding your business.
