FM 2106 Job Related Expenses in State (WI) Forms, where does it appear? for State of Wisconsin

Would like further clarification and detail on where to learn in your state (State of Wisconsin, WI) form FM2106 Job Related Expenses would show up?  

 

TurboTax commonly says the following, but does not tell you where to look in your State's Return form if any of your inputs show up in the State forms

 

"How do my job-related expenses affect my refund?

Your job-related expenses might help you get a tax break on your state tax return, which could help you get a bigger refund. As we get more info from you, we'll see if your expenses qualify and automatically add this deduction to your state return."

 

thanks for clarifying if it matters, as if entry does not make a difference would save more time as most job related expenses are no longer deductible.

Unreimbursed employee expenses are still allowed in Arkansas, California, Pennsylvania and Minnesota.

forgot to mention, its for the State of Wisconsin. 

 

TT says there may be a deduction, but I don't know where it may be located for the State of Wisconsin

It is still entered in the FEDERAL tab under the deductions and credits tab and is carried to the state interview.

noted, how can you tell if what you entered in Federal makes any difference in your state (Wisconsin) deduction?
