Bug in federal estimated tax opti

[JohnRDelaney]

In the 1040 worksheet, I had all my 2023 federal overpayment applied to 2024 estimated taxes. The number did not propagate to the estimated taxes worksheet. Is that a bug? Should I manually override the entry in the later worksheet

Tip: If you pay quarterly estimated taxes, apply a portion of your refund to next year's first-quarter estimated tax payment, which is due April 18. This can help prevent underpayment penalties on next year's return.
