In TaxSlayer Pro, if you've entered a withholding document such as Form 1042-S in its menu into Form 1040-NR, the income you entered does not flow to the main return. It's up to you to enter the income in the appropriate place in the tax return. Entering only Form 1042-S in its menu and not also entering the income where it belongs in the return will result in this reject:
