My employer mentioned PFL benefits are not included in box 16 - state taxable wages in W2 so in turbotax should I enter PFL income received as zero?

I took paternity leave for 6 weeks and my employer mentioned "PFL benefits are included as part of your wages in Box 1 that are subject to federal taxes, but are not included in Box 16 California state taxable wages.  You will not receive a separate 1099 for PFL wages."
So in turbo tax where it is asking me to enter "PFL income received from insurance company" should I enter the amount as zero since it is already taken care in W2?
