Did you enter a 1099-NEC? If so, this would go to your Schedule C. If you did, this is where the number came from. If you are in forms mode, you can only change numbers that are in blue. If they are in black they are coming from a worksheet. Click on the number in black and then click the magnifying glass to go to the worksheet.
Please note, that entering the numbers directly on the forms will void the TurboTax accuracy guarantee.
