Deductions & credits

I am using the "Forms" in Turbotax. How do you enter the water service rebate's 1099-MISC info into federal tax section for California water rebates? I do not use the Turbotax guided entries in the software.

 

Update: Found a solution, but could not remove my initial reply in this community. Solution: enter a new 1099-MISC for the rebate paying entity, enter payer information and select "other income" box for the 1099's item 3 amount. This will push that amount to Schedule 1, item 8-z and be accounted for in the return, though it remains taxable. Let me know if this is not a good method.
