Do I reduce deductible wages by the amount of the ERTC

In early 2021 I retroactively claimed the ERTC credit for Q1/Q2 of 2020.  When I fill out the wages expense, TT tells me it should match Box 1 of the W-3.  ADP tells me that claiming the ERTC does not change the W-3.  Does that mean that I should deduct the original wages I paid, or do I still somehow need to reduce them by the amount of the ERTC?
