Accrued payment pruchased corporate bonds - my brokerage reports "dividends" not "interest"

I understand how TurboTax handles adjustment to interest earned on corporate bonds when I adjust it for the accrued interest I paid when I purchased it, but my problem is slightly different:

 

My brokerage reports the earnings on my corporate bonds as "dividends" instead of "interest" on 1099-DIV.  I can adjust that amount, but there is no Accrued reason like there is on interest. How do I handle this?

contact your broker to find out why.   payments by ETFs that hold bonds are taxed as dividends but the 1099--Div should have been reduced for that accrued dividend.
