It depends on "where" you initially entered the Form 1099-NEC. There are a couple of different places one could have entered it. Since you didn't see the expense questions, I'll assume you entered the 1099-NEC in the manner I mention next, as opposed to directly entering it in the Business interview.
Did you enter your 1099-NEC in the section "Form 1099-MISC and Other Common Income" and then subtopic "Income from Form 1099-NEC?" If so, you still need to go through the Business Income and Expenses interview. After you entered the 1099-NEC, on one of the last screens of that section it should have shown you a screen with a statement on it to not forget to go through the Business section. See this image:

.
Federal Taxes tab.
Then subtab Wages & Income.
Blue button: "I'll choose what I work on."
On the page "Your 2020 Income Summary" scroll down to topic "Business Items" and choose topic "Business Income and Expenses."
It may then show you a Business Summary screen.
Select your Business and click EDIT.
It then will have a bunch of questions about your business profile.
Keep answering a lot of screens, maybe a dozen or so.
You'll likely see a screen called "Form 1099-NEC Summary", which is the 1099-NEC you entered earlier; it can be edited there if needed.
If it shows you a screen asking if you got a Form 1099-MISC, answer appropriately.
Then it will ask if you had any income that was NOT on a Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC, such as cash, etc. (Don't report your 1099-NEC income twice! You already reported it.)
Eventually you will come to this screen where you can start the Business Expenses interview:

Be sure to review your Schedule C prior to filing to be sure it's correct.
