Box D control number is empty on my W2

Turbo Tax Premium Mac is not enabling import unless Control Number is entered, but it is empty on my W-2. Should I try entering 00000 or control number from same employer last year? I read that IRS doesn't care about the control number but not sure why Turbo Tax is insisting on it if that's true. Thank you.

Don't try to import it.   Should be just as easy or easier to enter it manually.

Enter it manually - bypass all of the import prompts.   How do I manually enter my W-2?
