AMOUNT APPLIED TO 2021 ESTIMATED TAXES FROM 2020 FORM 1040 NOT SHOWING UP ON 2021 FORM 2210

The amount I applied to my 2021 estimated taxes on my 2020 Form 1040 does not show up on Line 11 (a) of  2021 Form 2210, Part III, Section A--Figure Your Underpayment.  Is this a TT software issue, or am I missing something?

Problem resolved!  Even though the credit for amount applied to 2021 does not show up on line 11(a) of Part III, Section A--Figure Your Underpayment of 2021 Form 2210, this amount does show up on  Form 2210 Underpayment Penalty Worksheet, and this amount is listed as a payment in the First Installment and decreases the Underpayment Penalty.
