Why a half of self employment tax dedcution is not automatically applied on my return

As a sole proprietor, I think I am able to deduct 50% of your self-employment tax and on many discussion it said TurboTax will be done automatically when we complete enter income and expenses for Schedule C (your business). However, it didn't apply 50% of that self-employment tax on my draft return. How could I fix it up? Is there any TurboTax expert helping me out for this issue? I have to provide my final 2019 federal tax return for applying a senior center. Much appreciate if some body can respond to my question asap.
