Go to

Partner by Partner Data
Partner Name
Partner Information
Partner Type
.
If a partner type like LLC or Exempt Org is selected, change it to an accepted value. North Carolina requires the partner type to be one of these accepted values:
C Corp
Estate
Grantor Trust
Individual
Trust
Partnership
S Corp
Tax-Exempt
IRA
Foreign Gov
Do a full recompute, then recreate the e-file.
If the partner type can't be updated to an accepted value, file on paper.
