Why is DT Max not deducting the allowance received from the corresponding employment expense on the TP-59?

When entering allowances received for employment expenses, DT Max is not deducting the allowance received provincially (TP-59) from the expenses(s). It is doing it correctly federally (T777).

As a workaround, choose one of the two following possible solutions:

A - Enter net employment expenses amount, considering the allowance to be deducted for each expense (i.e. not using the Allowance keyword);

B - Use the Allowance keyword for the federal allowances and Alt-J to enter $0 for Quebec AND when entering federal employment expenses, use Alt-J to enter the net amount of the expense for Quebec.
