How to bypass Balance Sheet in TurboTax 2023 Desktop

My S-Corp is not required to submit a balance sheet based on IRS criteria. However, I can't figure out how to bypass the balance sheet in TurboTax Business Desktop 2023. I'm running Windows 11 Pro. I would have thought TTBD would recognize that my business doesn't meet the criteria, but it doesn't and won't let me file without having everything balanced. Please provide instructions on how to bypass the balance sheet. I have tried deleting the form and it comes right back in again.
