In Turbo Tax, where do you enter tips income for a self-employed rideshare driver, in order to get the tips deduction on schedule 1-A?

When you are entering your income for self employment, TurboTax will ask if any of that income includes tips. The tips must be included in a Form 1099-k, 1099-MISC, or 1099-NEC.  You have to keep logs that show the date, the customer, and tip received.
