1099-MISC form with Box 7 Nonemployee Compensation amount

My husband received a 1099-Misc Income (2023) form with Box 7 specifying his Nonemployee Compensation amount.  The amount is correct ($16K).  We're not able to enter this amount into Turbo Tax Home & Business edition because the 1099-MISC Box 7 = N/A (e.g., doesn't allow amount to be input).   What is the best way to submit this Nonemployee Compensation amount:  1) Enter the amount in the 1099-NEC Box 1 field (even though we did NOT receive an actual 1099-NEC form) or 2)  Enter the amount as General Income, not reported on other forms (even though we DID receive an actual 1099-Misc Income (2023) form?
