I'm not specifically familiar with your state software. The following is a "generic" answer.

There is no federal deduction for making a contribution to a 529 plan. Some states allow a deduction on the state return. If your state is one, it will come up in the state interview; usually in the "Here's how (your state) handles income differently" section.

For a state list of eligible plans, see: https://www.savingforcollege.com/article/how-much-is-your-state-s-529-plan-tax-deduction-really-worth
