Vehicle expenses entered then computed by TurboTax not carrying to Schedule C?

[ualdriver]

Hello-

I'm doing my son's tax return who is a DoorDash driver.  I entered his 1099-NEC information into TurboTax no problem, which generates a Schedule C.  I then went to the "Deductions & Credits" section, Employment Expenses section, Job Related Expenses of TurboTax to calculate his job related vehicle expenses, which TurboTax calculated as $815.  

That $815 belongs on Part II, line 9 of schedule C as part of his expenses, however TurboTax is not putting this vehicle expense into that line.  How do I get TurboTax to do that?  Or am I supposed to go into View->Forms->Schedule C and enter the number manually?

Thanks!

I then went to the "Deductions & Credits"

You can't and don't claim SCH C business expenses there. Everything is reported in the SCH C section of the program. You need to delete everything you entered concerning vehicle expenses under the deductions and credits section. 

If you'll take a look, in the business expenses section there's a sub-section for business vehicle expenses.

Precisely how you get to that depends on what version of the program you're using, and if it's the CD you installed on your computer, or the online version of self-employed.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide me with that detailed explanation.  Now that I see it, I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking doing it the way I did and getting stuck!
