April.2021 - the instructions below are not helping much, as even the menu structure is not the same for my online taxes.
INterestingly the Search function which is usually quite helpful doesn't give many hits on ST-556.

In May/June of 2019, many questions and answers in the old AnswerXchange were ported to the new Community. Unfortunately, the dates for the original posts were reset to the date on which the questions and answers were carried over, meaning that the answer you found may be much older than what it appears.

Furthermore, the layout of the screens can vary somewhat from product to product.

I have just walked through the process using 2020 Premier Online, and "Go to Federal Taxes at the top, " should be "click on Federal on the left". Otherwise, after that point, with a little flexibility on your part, you should be able to follow the general instructions to enter the sales tax paid.

The sales tax is what you are trying to enter, right?
