Why does the wrong state code automatically get inserted for WI (displayed MX) on Schedule B Dividend Smart Worksheet?

"Wisconsin" was selected when entering 1099-DIV info. from Your 2018 Income Summary from Interview process. Had to manually change on individual stock form to correct. Seems like a coding issue.

Why does the wrong state code automatically get inserted for WI (displayed MX) on Schedule B Dividend Smart Worksheet?

Did you check the box that said: "I earned tax exempt dividends in more than one state" at any point?

MX is the code for more than one state and when that box is checked it will show on the worksheet as the state where dividends were earned even if you selected Wisconsin from the top menu drop down box (and not the bottom the multiple state breakdown list). 

(Also, if it was an imported form, it may have imported with a more than one state designation)
