My 2020 State Turbotax is listing an incorrect amount for my 2020 State Estimated Payments made. How do I update this number?

I did import information from my 2019 Turbotax files.  The 2020 estimated payments are correct in the 2019 State Turbotax.  I'm using Windows on a PC.  The state is Minnesota.
