TT Business edition 2025 errors and difficulties

The TT business SW has several errors. I wasted my time trying to fix them and call your help line. Example. it thought I was missing a date on a worksheet but I opened and found the work sheet and the date was indeed in there. TT Business edition was not happy with that so I added another date to the random line it though needed a date and then it let me move on. Also I made an estimated payment on a date later than the IRS wanted, so I correctly per instructions added that date to the "actual payment date" column, however TT would not let me get past this until I put in the same date as it was due. This is incorrect and I am sure the IRS will catch this error in a few weeks and give me a small fee. TT offered but does not explain Form 1041-T and in all my web searches on the IRS and elsewhere I coud not determine if it was to my Beneficiary's advantage. TT should explain the tax consequences to the beneficiary, not just the Trust. TT business still does NOT allow us to download our 1099-DIV and 1099-INT etc.!! Crazy why would I continue to use TT Business, this is at the very minimum something we should be able to do. It works fine on our TT Deluxe version for personal Taxes. This goes on with more examples but I can't imagine you will make the changes so I won't bother. Honest ly thinking of switching back to my old SW or going pencil and paper.
I used the desktop business version. My biggest complaint is that I was unable to figure out how to download the 1099 into the return so had to type everything in.
Not At All As Polished As The Online 1040 TurboTax

The exclusion of scan or photos of your various 1099 & other banking forms which then place it automatically in the appropriate form/line of your return makes this business version not worth using again.
Better than paper and pencil and wading thru instr

Turbotax is very accurate, but sometimes the questions asked are impenetrable. One form, an explanatory statement for form 1116 continued to reappear after I deleted it multiple times. Turbotax cannot handle fiduciary returns for South Carolina (form 1041). Addresses, bank accounts, etc. have to be reentered even though I use them on multiple returns (like on trust funds for multiple children). Several times when trying to review my return, I was sent back to the same old imput screens even when all I wanted to do was see and/or check prior entries. It is hard to run base case and excursions to better understand the implications of decisions. I am not convinced that Turbotax considers all of my options, especially when considering implications across years. It would be very helpful to have a numerical flow diagram that tracks imputs to outputs. In my tax planning for next year I am balancing income of various voluntary types (federal and muni bonds, capital gains, salary and deferred salary, benefits, and retirement distributions) against college tuition credits, Roth conversions, RMDs, foreign tax carryovers, capital gains and loss carryovers, etc.
