Schedule C errors for descriptions that are not applicable

I keep getting errors to enter a description for items on schedule C for my side business like pension contribution, retirement, contractors, etc. that don't apply.

Turbotax entered 0 for these items. What do I enter for the description? I didn't get these errors last year so I'm very confused.

Instead of entering a description for the items with ‘0’ value, try deleting the zero.

If that does not work, enter ‘not applicable’ for the description.
