Why is the program listing my charitable donation carryover as property instead of cash and therefore to 50% not 60% of AGI?

I listed my charitable carryover in the program but it put them down as 50% instead of 60%. I looked at the carryover form and it doesn't have it in the cash space.

Charitable contribution carryovers retain their % limits...

Charitable contribution carryovers retain their % limits for the year the contribution was made. So your 2017 (+ prior yr if any) cash contributions were limited to 50% and any carryover retains that 50% of AGI character.

See Example 1 under Carryovers (p18):
