At the review stage I am stuck on a screen that says "QBI Passive Op Loss must be entered" I have no idea what this means or where i would get the amount from.

Above message is on the page for my Schedule E worksheet, I have a rental property owned by a passthrough LLC.

It's possible this is an artifact from the transfer process. Have you tried entering a zero or a negative one in the highlighted field? Either entry will have no impact on your overall return but will resolve the Smart Check message.
