Error for Sch E - QBI Carryovers

I'm getting an error for 2025 Sch E - QBI Carryovers from 2024. Turbotax added an amount on its own to my 2025 return, line G  Schedule E suspended loss. When I look at my 2024 return I don't see any negative balance from Form 8582, Page 2, Part 7 (VII).

Before I remove what turbotax inserted, I just want to make sure I should or if there is something else i'm not considering.

Yes, the recommended workaround for this experience is to remove/delete the amount from the QBI column on the Carryovers to 2025 Smart Worksheet that appears with the Smart Check message. This edit is especially applicable if you had no carryovers on your prior year return. Plus, it will allow the worksheet to pass final review so you can file your federal return.
