ESPP Earned Incom Question

[Yaser]

Hello,

After entering my ESPP and adjusting cost basis, and indicating that the discount wan not included in my W2 (it's from a former employer), and the taxes were calculated with the capital gains part and ordinary income part, and everything seemed fine, then when I got to the review it is asking me to check this entry and says "employee stock compensation income wks: Tearn must be entered" and gives options for No Entry (already checked), Earned income Yes, or Earned income No. I don't why it is asking me this? What should I choose?
