I've been dealing with this issue since February. I assumed it was a software glitch that would get patched. Apparently I was wrong (about getting the patch fixed).
I do not require a Form 1099-NEC but kept receiving the "check this entry" message anyway. I did not have any 1099-NEC forms to delete so I created a bogus one then deleted it. After doing so I was able to go through the review process without the "check this entry" message.
I hope this workaround helps somebody else.
