State tax filing

Yes, you entered it correctly, applying 114K of wages to NJ.   When you said ''In the workflow, I removed the NJ wages, just leaving the NY wages of $132K'', I am not sure what you meant, but his NJ return should reflect 114K of wage income.   His resident state, NY, will tax all of his wages and NJ should only tax the wages earned while working in NJ.   And you correctly took the credit for taxes paid to another state on his NY return.
