Is Foreign earned income taxable in CA

My foreign earned income is exempt from federal income tax. Should this be the same for CA? Turbo tax is calculating it is, but not sure if it is because of information I entered when asked "what portion of my income did I earn outside of CA as a CA resident"

Is Foreign earned income taxable in CA

California does not allow a foreign tax credit or a foreign earned income exclusion. If you claimed the foreign earned income exclusion on your federal return, include the amount of your foreign earned income exclusion on Schedule CA (540NR), line 21f, column C.

How to do that in the TurboTax Software? Does TurboTax adjust it automatically?
