You are wrong. You can include it as a state tax paid. It is withholding of HI state tax that you'll get credit for when you file your Nonresident Hawaii tax return. Enter the withholding under Estimates and Other Taxes, under Other Income Taxes Paid in 2017, specifically Withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099. See the screenshot.
Then enter the amount and the state for the withholding. Then proceed to prepare your HI return, and you'll get credit for the tax you already paid. You'll either get a refund or owe additional tax depending on your situation.
