After speaking to a support person from Intuit, I decided to try to find a way to change the input value in the form (showing as zero (0.). This caused the error as the software sees the 0 as a claim to the credit.
I fixed the issue by going to (using desktop intuit turbo tax home & business 2023) Tools tab and selecting "My Tax Data". Expand the window and search the list in section with Schedule C that has the description of the error line and the value "0." entered. Delete the 0. and leave the field blank. Save and the file and then go to "Smart Check" to redo the submission. In my case no more error and submission went through. Better late than never!
