IND-073 e-file error

If 'OverpaidAmt' is greater than 'EsPenaltyAmt', then the sum of 'RefundAmt', 'AppliedToEsTaxAmt', and 'EsPenaltyAmt' must be equal to 'OverpaidAmt'. (rule IND-073)
You'll get this error when the overpayment is greater than the estimated penalty amount, and the overpayment doesn't equal the sum of the refund, the amount applied to next year's estimates, and the estimated penalty.
