TT Desktop fields unclear for 1099G

I did itemized deduction last year (for the first time) and got tax refund. This year I got a 1099G from California for 2023. Box2 mentions the refund amount and Box3 mentions the last Tax year... ie 2022. 

While entering TT Desktop, the 1099G sections asks to enter:

1). "Total Refund received in 2023" for which, i think, i should enter Box2 amount (<-- right?)

2). "Total of all your payment and withholding" ---- i dont know what to enter here??

 

-In the Wages and Comp section on TT desktop, I have already uploaded my W2s (and withholding should have been uploaded too alongwith, i assume) so why is TT not auto-populating it in this section.

-And what does 1099G section to do anything with "withholding" anyway. And what does this question mean by "payment"

 

What is the question (2) asking for... clearly the answer is not in 1099G since it has only 1 entry (ie... Box2). Please chime in.
