error 0n 593

I sold a house and received my portion and paid CA withholding taxes.  I've entered Real Estate withholding in Federal Taxes.  When I get to State Taxes, I'm asked about filling out 593 form but TurboTax tells me not to fill it but gives me errors and won't let me remove it.  

Recommendation on fixing the form 593 from being entered is to remove 1099-S from Federal Taxes.  If I do that then, where do I enter capital gain from selling a house?

    You can enter that as an investment sale as follows:

     

    You enter investment sales in the Wages and Income section of TurboTax, then Investment Income, then Stocks, cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, etc... Skip the section where it asks if you want to upload your tax documents. Choose Other as the type of property sold. On the screen where you enter the sales proceeds and cost choose Land (personal use) or Land (other investments purpose) depending on whether you used the property for personal purposes or held it for investment.
